The hoopla and reality of the z16

[BBIGG BLOCK 396]

I got a chance to briefly see that Chevelle I was talking about today.I was at the track today helping a friend with his car.I was sent on a mission to dispose of some used motor oil and on the way to the dump barrell I noticed a nice looking red 65 chevelle.I stopped to look at it and asked the guy parked next to it whose car it was,he told me and I staretd to look closely at the car.I looked at the speedo,only 120 not 160,looked under the car and no boxed frame!It did have buckets ,console and original style 4 speed that looked all factory.I did not want to raise the hood without consent so I went back to my friends car and they put me to work! by the time I got free and went back with a pen and paper the car was gone.I would bet that it is not a Z16,but a really nice SS Chevelle.although I am told it has a really nice aluminum headed big block in there under the hood and runs extremely well.I will try to get the trim tag information and vin# from the car and get it posted though!
