1967 Chevrolet Chevelle Coupe

1967 Chevrolet Chevelle Coupe

Like the Tri-Five Chevys that came before it, the Chevelle is one of those cars GM aced right out of the gate and continued to perfect. Eventually, the marque became one of the strongest brands in automotive history; and at one point, with a full list of body styles, options, trim grades, color combinations, and engines which ranged from mild to outrageous, literally embodied the 'custom built' nature that defines the muscle car era.

For consignment, a nice looking and good performing Chevrolet Chevelle from 1967. With an original 283ci grocery getter V8, and 2-speed automatic Powerglide transmission, this was a great second car for mom to take the kids to after school activities or do some running around for herself and the family during the day.

ExteriorBurnt Cinnamon covers this car on the paint front and is a nicely done paint job. All is covered nicely on these body panels which are minding their gaps nicely. Well preserved chrome and trim very shiny and mirror-like is noted on the bumpers, and lower trim belt, which is nicely aligned on the doors. The deep flying buttress B pillars frame the trunk and the rear window which is surrounded by good brite-work. On the rear of this car are corner wrap-around taillights that have a cinnamon speckle painted panel connecting the two sides running directly below the trunk. Cragar 15 inch slots wheels are on all 4 corners.

InteriorA long black split bench glides between pristine black horizontal ribbed door panels and is in very nice condition . The rear bench follows suit with no stains or rips. An original GM inverted V style dash is up front and has the speedometer, fuel gauge and clock inserted in an area with wood applique above, and black metal below. A few aftermarket gauges in the form of a trio to drivers right all within a wood appliqu panel. Black carpet is in clean and nice condition, and the headliner is just nice and tight. An original steering wheel also in black with chromed ribs, fronts this original dash.

DrivetrainA 283ci V8 is within a nicely restored and clean engine bay. Complete with orange Chevrolet block and heads, and red painted Chevrolet badged valve covers and some black and red tubing throughout, we are looking just dandy on the engine front. On top below the black single snout air cleaner housing is a factory 2-barrel carburetor. A Powerglide 2-speed automatic is on the back of this engine, and it throws power back to a 10-bolt rear with 3.08 gears.

UndercarriageSome surface rust to note, and unfortunately the body hangers on this car are severely damaged with invasive rust. Please see the photos for reference. In the floor pans we note cracked undercoating and surface rust at the seams. Drum brakes are on all 4 corners. The suspension consists of independent coil springs on the front and a 4 link with coil springs on the rear.

Drive-AbilityThis car started quickly and ran nicely. All functions worked well, and it has smooth acceleration and handling. The interior had plenty of room and was definitely comfortable. It would be a great cruiser on a long drive.

An earlier restoration, but paint remains shiny and deep, mechanicals are solid, and interior is very nicely preserved. Definitely worth a look, and a really great year for the iconic grocery getter optioned Chevelle.
