Equipment
Non matching 454ci V8 and M 22 4 speed, cowl induction, wide oval tires, SS trim. Solid paint and interior. Chassis and mechanicals decent. Well restored by a private individual but not up to the level of a professional shop. A Chevelle with stripes and paperwork.
Market commentary
A no sale at Mecum Indy 2011 for $65,000, the owner endured shipping, storage, insurance cost and consignment fees for a year to sell at Russo Monterey for $5,000 less. As in most cases, the first bid was the best, but even at that the price here was all the hot rodded Chevelle deserved.
