1965 Chevelle L79

[Day2_69Z]

Paul,
Sorry,
No pics as of yet.
I'm still waiting to confirm some details on the car.
I'm believing this is a 365 horse car.
After digesting the team chevelle info and a standard timeline of options as far as the 300 HP availability.....those guys seem to be peating and repeating printed public conjecture compiled over 45+ years.(the old, its in print from 40 years ago, and reprinted, so it must be true) syndrome.

I have seen documents and have viewed cars built Way Before the standard time line with 300 hp, 4 speeds.
From what I've found , with no questions of restamping or adding a non known casting date components.......
The Car I inquired about is a June of '64 built 327-365 solid lifter, M20,12 Bolt 3:31 posi., in dash tach car with a few more options. Its coded and vin stamped as such for this Hdtp. SS.
As I dig deeper, Chevy didn't advertise these as they were intended to be Only a short run for 1 month of production. The first impression I made was Chevrolet had more 327 solid lifter engines on hand that weren't selling fast enough in the Corvettes......Rumors were running rampant of the new 396 engines for Vette and Chevelles pending.
The owner of this 64....is the second owner, the car came from a Western, Pa. Performance/ Corvette Dealership. I've known of it for 36 years , yet , have only seen it 3 times.. (all in the privacy of its garage spot) .
More info pending as I get it.....I'm pursuing to purchase this , one egg shell at a time. No conversations have taken place of selling any car as yet. The owner has 12 other 64-65 Chevelles I know of .. has more he hasn't talked about yet....;-)
