I thought they were worth a lot more than that. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

Re-arcing the rear springs would help that car a lot.

Besides the final price,the No reserve & No minimum bid surprised me.

I was under the impression the Chevelle had coils in the rear -- but then again I've never owned a 64' model ... TAZ [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

It's a 1965 & yes it does have coil springs in back.

....Bruce,,,I think you have it backwards. Drop the front down where it should be........Bill S

Could be Bill. IMO the car looks "tired" sitting like that.
