Misty the 1970 Chevelle has been restored to varying degrees several times. The car has been a true constant in his life. Thirty-two years later, he still gets excited every time he pulls off the cover and goes for a cruise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Misty is a matching number L34 396 – 350 Horsepower. A rebuild of Chevelle was done by him and his father in 2014. Matching number M20 wide-ratio Muncie 4-Speed (also rebuilt in 2014) and last an original 3.31 Posi rear end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you look at the trim tag, Misty should have come with a cloth bench seat interior. However, as you can see, she has a vinyl beach seat interior. The interior has always looked original. When he had to replace the seat covers (due to mice, unfortunately). He found a build sheet from another car not far down the assembly line. The only thing he can figure is at the Atlanta plant they switched the seats at some point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He plans to enjoy Misty and cruise with her. He takes her to shows, register (the registration fee usually goes to a good cause), clean her up, walks around and look at the other cars, talk to a few people and then leave. It used to bother him that Misty rarely got recognized by the judges. But she is a GREEN Plain Jane 1970 Chevelle SS396. Not anything special. However, she’s special to him, and that’s all that matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He is currently restoring the original AO wheels (a correct set is currently on her). Then he plans to get a set of Coker Radial Wide Oval Tires for her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
