Johnny Hunkins would be proud of Rocco B. for sending this lead into us, and it is from our backyard even! I will admit, that when Hunkins first started showing love to these ugly Chevelles, I thought he was crazy. But they’ve grown on me. For some reason, the Holley Wagon and a couple of El Caminos have turned me. And this one could be the perfect two door for someone as it is a California rust free and straight example. Plus it is a big block Laguna with swivel buckets and the whole nine yards! Sure it will need some work, but we think it rules.
Looking at it you can see that upholstery it most certainly at the top of the list, but the car has perfect plastic parts, a new dash and carpet come with it, and the body is straight. If it were mine I’d get the seats covered, finish the fresh big block install, and then do some suspension work to it to make it ready for a lot of fun. Autocross? Sure. Drag Strip? Sure. Cruiser? Sure. Whatever you want to do, you can do with this car once you get a few things dialed in on it.
With a good wash and detail this thing wouldn’t look half bad either!

I Got one of these amazing cars. Please go on and keep calling it ugly, and spread the word that its not worth anything. Then there will be more of these cars at cheap money for me and my friends at g3gm .com we love these Big abody cars because we know how good they are, they can be made in to a corner carving beast of a hotrod. It can be used for Cruise,race or just about whatever you want. Its Big and comfortable and can Haul what you need. The best part is you can make a hotrod no other has for less than others use on a dosen on the dime camaro.
So keep talking shit about it, so there will be more for us to enjoy, and then you can keep using every dollar u make on your camaros and mustangs. Its a win win for me.
Ummm, I think they complimented it and said they liked it. I\’m not sure where you came up with that rant above. You go enjoy your ugly car now and be sure to tell all your online friends how you gave us a piece of your mind.
