Re: 76 Chevelle road racer from the arctic

And the 76-77 Two door malibu base no Classic from 76-77 had single round headlights,AND the 73 quarter windows.I didnt now this either untill i fond the original brochure ;)

Interesting, It doesnt really surprise me though seeing as they also put Laguna noses on 4 doors and wagons. Weird. ???

That really looks good with the wide Rallys on it!

My buddy down the street from me just picked up a 74. Someone put all the S3 emblems on it and the swivel buckets and console. He has a Laguna nose for it too. Im trying to talk it out of him cause he dont need it... ;D

I really wish I wouldve kept mine, I was young n dumb and we all know how that goes... :

What color are you gonna shoot it?

Re: 76 Chevelle road racer from the arctic

Color?..its blue,isnt it ;D.I dont know really...maybe Le mans blue with those white circles on the roof and doors with numbers in to give it that old european racing car look 8).

It has blue interior,so i am stuck there ;D.

And the 73-77 Chevelles are gettin hotter these days.It was the unwanted stepchild in many years,but lately more and more cars have been taken care of ;D

I had/have a complete black deluxe interior out of a 74 up in my grandmas hay loft. I dont know if its even there anymore, I havent been up there in years. It was out of one of the Chevelles I stripped when I had mine. I saved everything except the front seat as it was ripped. If by any chance its all still up there, you are more than welcome to it if you pay shipping. It was all boxed up except for the rear seat and the dashpad. Might still be good? ??? If your interested, let me know and Ill try to get out that way maybe this weekend and check it out for ya.


Im an Orange freak, and I always thought one of those Chevelles would look great unset Orange with the black Laguna stripes on the bottom.

This is all rather surprising to me. I always was under the impression that you could count on one hand the number of American cars sold in Europe each year, but it looks like they may actually be common?

Are the bumpers on you Chevelle unique to the exported cars? They look much smaller that the ones that came on the same cars over here. Great to see that you're out flogging the car and having fun with it. And thanks for the pic of the Amazon-that's badass!

Theres so much taxes when you import an american car,that it will live forever here... 8).A brand new Mustang Gt will cost nearly 200000 dollars here...

A new Corvette 300000 dollars..A new Suburban 300000 dollars....

So american cars here are one of a kind..almost EXOTIC :.

In the old days...before 1955,nearly 50% of the cars where american.When the cars and engines got bigger,the taxes also got bigger.

Sweden and Switzerland has another tax system,so american cars have been sold in larger quantites there.

There are also an enourmous import of cars older than 30 years here.Almost no taxes on them,so last year,there was around 10000 american cars imported too Scandinavia.

Ant the bumpers on the Chevelle arent an export special.Its been modified by me ;D.
