About

It’s a somewhat rare 65 Chevelle 2-dr wagon, one of 1668 produced in 1965. It sits on an Art Morrison full chassis. McPhearson struts up front, 9 inch Ford with 4-link in back. The drive train is a 502 crate engine with a TH400 Transmission. The firewall is completely smooth with nothing on it. The power brakes are running sideways under the dash. The throttle cable comes up from the floorboard. Carbon-fiber dash insert has AutoMeter Gauges. The shifter is a custom made unit with “brass knuckles”. The radiator support is hand made. The rain gutters have been shaved.

History of this Vehicle

This project was started 10 years ago when I purchased a 502 from the local Chevy Dealer. Then came the Art Morrison full chassis. Little by little it came together and was finally finished spring of 2010.

Plans for this Vehicle

Have fun with it!!
