If you need financing, or a garage, or whatever..... make sure it is done before you commit to buy. I'm almost giving this car away.... please don't add insult to injury by having to cancel out because you aren't prepared. Thanks. Serial number 138177A136049 This is a rare and true 138 VIN 1967 Chevelle SS 396. Black on Black. It was originally an automatic transmission car with a bench seat. There are 61,690 miles showing on speedometer. The speedometer cable is currently not connected since the transmission was replaced with the 4-speed, but no one has driven this but me so it might have an actual 60 or 70 more miles on it than what is showing. This car has FACTORY electric windows and tilt steering wheel. It was brought to Florida from Canada and was previously registered in Canada. VIN plate indicates the Chevelle was built in Atlanta. Before I could get it registered and tagged in Florida, it had to be verified by a regional representative from the Florida Department of Motor Vehicles. He certified it as an original car and approved my application for the Florida registration which is current. The previous owner was a mechanic from Canada and he modified the car at my request with the 4-speed installation, bucket seats, and console. There is NO RUST on this car anywhere. There are three places that I found evidence of bondo repairs, but they are done very, very professional. The left side interior trunk lip has a bondo repair, the right side interior trunk support shows some bondo, and the right side lower rocker in front of the rear wheel has been repaired. I have had this car for 6 years and never noticed it. I ran a magnet over the whole car last week and discovered this area had been repaired. It looks perfect, but has been repaired. Also, the left side rocker in front of the rear wheel is showing some paint cracking, but no bondo was found there. Overall, the car is in excellent shape. The speedometer dash lens still has the automatic transmission indicator but replacement panels are available without that lettering. I’ve just never had it done. When I got the car 6 years ago, my intent was to show it locally and drive it sparingly, since it is in such good shape. Life issues changed my direction and I have truthfully never even put an entire tank of gas through this car. I took it to one show, and it has been covered in my garage ever since. The engine doesn’t even have the break-in miles finished yet. The weatherstripping on the doors should be replaced as it is old and brittle. The dashboard does not have a radio-delete plate, but I located a period-correct AM radio that I will include with the car. It is not installed. This is the car I always wanted when I was a kid, but just couldn’t get it. I finally got one when I was 50 years old, and now I just don’t have the time to enjoy it. Come and get it before I change my mind. Car has the following options and modifications: - New Carpet - New bucket seat covers - New aftermarket console - Era-correct 396 big block, .30 over - Accell electronic ignition - Edelbrock manifold and 4-barrel carb - Muncie M-21 Transmission- Close ratio Hurst 4-speed shifter with white knob - Factory 12-bolt 4:11 posi-traction rear end - Factory electric windows - Factory tilt wheel - Factory power steering with radiator-support mounted pump reservoir tank - Factory power disc brakes - Triple black paint - Headers and Flowmaster mufflers - BF Goodrich P275/60R15 rear, P21570R15 front tires - Factory Rally Wheels Engine and transmission are not numbers matching to the car. Engine is from the 60’s era with the following work: 13:1 compression, big dome pistons, bored .30 over, Edelbrock manifold, Edelbrock 4-barrel, angle-ported heads, roller rockers. Car runs on high octane pump gas, no additives or special fuel is required. Transmission is a Muncie M-21 4 speed. High flow engine headers, Flowmaster mufflers, 3” dual exhaust, power disc brakes (front), power steering, 12-Bolt 4:11 positraction rear end. Things to complete: engine break-in including valve adjustment, radio installation, replace weatherstripping, locate/install a console clock (not there), change out the dash lens, connect speedometer cable to transmission. There is no local shipper available in this area. The closest one would probably be about 40 minutes from here, possibly in the Winter Haven or Lakeland area. I will assist in loading it with the shipper of your choice. I require a non-refundable deposit due within 24 hours of auction end by Paypal only. This vehicle is being sold as is and no-return. Please ask all questions upfront and I assure you complete and accurate answers. Please allow me appropriate time for response. I have a perfect feedback rating and I wish to keep it that way. I have bought and sold several vehicles on Ebay in the past 8 years and have never had a problem with any of them. Ebay cars I have bought or sold include: 54 Ford hotrod truck, 55 Chevy Pickup, 66 Mustang, 68 Barracuda, 69 Mustang, 70 Dodge Dart, 70 Road Runner, 72 Chevelle SS, 73 Mustang Convertible, 77 Corvette, 84 Mustang GT, 97 Mustang convertible, 2002 PT Cruiser. Please note: This Chevelle was NOT purchased through Ebay. I bought it directly from the previous owner in my hometown after he brought it down from Canada. I am not now nor have I ever been a dealer. I used to own a welding repair shop and had a hobby of getting these old cars, playing with them for awhile, and then moving them on. I had intended on getting my dream Chevelle and keeping it forever, but stuff happens. Get it before I change my mind.
