Here we have a 1965 chevy that roars to a start. '65 was a great year for chevy and this little car is no slouch. The stick shift is all the conversation here as it turns this little car into a hot number. I knew it was rock solid when the fella hopped right in and fired it up. The car was sitting on 2 flats and had an inch of pine needles on her. Dozens of carguys had asked, but somehow I ended up with the 4 speed chevy after a quick convo. Apparently it came with a 12 bolt posi from the factory. Yes I tested it, hooks up! I don't think theres a build sheet to be found and I will post the engine numbers shortly. This old girl hadn't seen a wrench in years until we spruced her up over a couple weekends. The previous fella said the manual steering was no big deal and I was pleasantly surprised. This one holds the road and I took it up the steepest street we've got and made it back down no sweat. Of course it deserves a full resto but I'm telling ya it could be the baddest beater in town. Its perfect for beachtrippin or roaring down broadway. This chevy shows no signs of slowing down. Its been holding a charge for years just waiting for a shot at the open road. Rus.
