I was out looking at a 68 chevelle 300 body yesterday for $1,000 and there was a '70 chevelle El camino nearby with a complete nice body. In fact the entire car less drivetrain was all there with bad lower edege rust. the front end was a nice undamaged one complete with headlights. I am sorry that I didn't have my camera with me.

They are almost 100 mi from me but I have a buddy that drives a semi-truck out of that area and he is the one that put me on to the 68 two door post body. It sure was a original body, but it turned out that it was only a nice straight body with a original 6 cy motor still in it with F air. No hood but mostly all there. Unfortunetly it had rust through around the back window. I was thinking of making a clone out of it. I don't think it had ever been wrecked though. Are these hard to find or valuable ???

There is also a very complete, red '60 impalla big block collum shift that had what was left of a roll and pleat interior that was a really nice straight body but has heavy surface rust and a broken back window. the motor had the intake off and I would swear that it was a 425 hp 409ci motor. big intake ports like a 427 BB in size.

#3 was a very complete '67 chevelle not a ss but it had a perfect Windshield. the taillights and rear end was still nice too. Left side damage in the front.
#4 '68 SS chevelle body not too much left but didn't look at it as it was damaged as was a '68 camaro without a cowl trim tag or subframe forward. Hit in the back hard. There were some front fenders in the car but they had rust in them. one was off a ss350 red car and the body was blue original paint. Too muddy to see if it was a 12 bolt or not.

It just goes to show that you just never know what you will find when you go out in the boonies looking around.
