1967 ss Chevelle original drivetrain
This is a very original 1967 Chevelle with the original 396, M20 and 331 12 bolt posi with73k miles. The drivetrain is all original including most the accesories. The camshaft went bad many years ago and the car just sat, When I bought the car I had the engine rebuilt it still had original 1966 bearings and the original nylon timing chain.
The car was original paint but was just recently repainted This is a original car with one repaint. The interior is 100 % original including the carpet I changed the door panels because the original ones had speaker holes in them but have the originals. The chrome on the dash is still in real nice shape. 38,000 John 630 333 8333

Beautiful Chevelle, GLWS! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
(On a side-note; My Chevelle is also a 12A Kansas build and its body sequence # is 5556, only 19 away from this one.) |

Thanks Eric, If your car has any original date coded parts it would be interesting to see how close they are to each other.

Re: 1967 ss Chevelle original drivetrain
"Original" I counted ten uses of the word. Just curious. Can you please pontificate as to what that means in this car. Original, like it came from the factory in this particular car or......

Re: 1967 ss Chevelle original drivetrain
I do not understand your problem, the car retains its original interior, drivetrain, undercarriage and has 70k original miles. Yes it was repainted once and had the engine rebuilt that was never out of the car before I bought it. I didnt say survivor I said original. Survivor would of been a different story. The word original means it came from the fatory with the stated part.

Re: 1967 ss Chevelle original drivetrain
I read the posting when it first appeared and thought how excellent the description was being each use of the word original was preceded by the words THE and ALL also 100% etc. Sadly the word original has different meanings in today's world and needs exact clarification...again as was used in this circumstance. Some terms like original style or restored to original mean little as anyone's opinion of original can largely differ between enthusiasts...and reality. Also, original doesn't necessarily mean original to the vehicle unless specified as such being it could be an original part from another vehicle...whether Eric's car a few Vins ahead on the same assy. line or one from a totally different model/plant/decade etc? Which 396 is it, I expect not an L78? Either way, thanks for posting and real nice car! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] ~ Pete

If it was an l78 it would be $30,000 more. They only made 612.
