700 hp All Motor 454 Chevelle Throws Down

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

This car and it's backstory are incredible! Matt's grandparents bought this brand new in 1969 and it's been in his family ever since. And he didn't just build it a little...he built it all the way and built it to drive hard like he does in this video.
Volume up, sit back and enjoy this incredible ride!!

    Stunningly great build all around but you can really see the time that was put into the body and paint. It’s like a sheet of glass down the sides, gaps are spot on, subtle and tasteful mods like shaving the drip rails. ‘69 is my favorite year of Chevelle and this one is just stellar.
