My ride is a 1970Chevelle SS 396. I have owned the car since Jan, 1971. It now has 168000 miles on the orginal big block. The engine has several upgrades, Intake, carb, cam & lifters and distributer. Bigger wheels and tires, new exhaust system, 2 1/2 inch and I'am working on the interior. I fixed some rust areas and repainted about 2 years ago. It is still a great ride.
