Man Rick, that is one sweet Chevelle. I've always been partial to the '70 and '71 models, as yourself. I came close to buying one in Dallas back in '96. It had the same color combination, but had a 454 LS5. The car needed a lot of TLC, so I tried to get the seller to agree to a lower price. He said he'd think about it for the weekend. He called me a few days later, telling me he'd take nearly 30% less. "So what's the deal," I said. Turns out he took the Velle out for a last drive and ended up hitting a tree and catching it on fire.
