This is my 68 Chevelle that I bought at the end of Feb 2006. It has a swaped 350ci engine the really moves. It has 12 bolt rear end, rear coils, front disk brakes, Edelbrock intake and carb, Flowmaster exuast and electric fuel pump. Im gonna restore this bad boy and let it loose on the street.

These first 3 pictures are from the seller. I'll make a few of my own pretty soon. Be patient though. My budget is really small because I am only 17 and minimum wage can only get you so far.

A 350 Block i bought for $200. The guy allmost scraped it for $300! I polished + painted it and it looks nice. It's out of a 70 Camaro, 30 over, bigger cam, and ported heads. I guesses that'll have to go for now till I get a big block.

I bought new wiring for dash, engine, and front lights and I'm working on firewall cover.

06-30-07 - Doing a little body work now. The front fenders are nearly done, I patched up a rust hole in the right fender and welded up the anntena hole. So far I have the roof filled and primered and I just primered the decklid today.

Looking good. Try to stay motiviated. I've had my 68 for 2 1/2 years now, and it's finally running. Just takes $$$ and time.
