Up for your consideration today is the finest example of a 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle 396 350 HP REAL 138 SS Super Sport car I have ever seen. It has the Original Protect-O-plate. It is finished in its correct Granada Gold Exterior with Black Bucket Seats. The paint is spectacular over its straight as an arrow body panels. The complete interior is brand new and immaculate as you would expect as are all glass panels. The numbers matching engine. 4 speed Muncie transmission. original 12 bolt rear end have been professionally rebuilt. The car runs and drives as you would expect. The underside of this vehicle looks equally as good as the top. The panels are laser straight and the lines and fit are perfect. The 4 tires are brand new B. F. Goodrich Radial T/A Redlines. I've seen hundreds of rotisserie restorations and this is by far the best i have ever seen as no expense of labor or money was spared!
Now for the History of the car. The Original Owner whose name is on the Protect-O-plate is Walt Arfons and his address in Akron. Ohio. His family are legends in the auto racing world. He invented the first jet-powered car and invented putting a parachute on the back of a car to slow it down. They also held the World Land Speed record with The Green Monster. Pretty interesting family if you have the time pleas google Walt Arfons. If you have any further questions feel free to call me between 10am and 9pm New York time at (631) 838-2400.

I received this message from the original owners nephew Tom. The history on this car and the original owners family is truly amazing!  My uncle Walter bought this car for his son Jon Craig Arfons. The engine has fewer miles that the rest of the car. since while his parents were away on a vacation. Craig pulled the 396 and put a crate 427 in it. He then hid the 396 in the crate. I have fond memories of riding in that car with Craig smoking the Goodyear "test tires". He later put the 396 back. Uncle Walter always thought he had a new 427. Craig was killed in 1989 while attempting to break the World's Water Speed Record. Thanks for the memories. - Tom
