Muscle Cars - 1967 Chevelle by Roy and Roy

Muscle Car: Chevrolet Chevelle Year: 1967 Engine: 327 c.i. 4 bolt main Transmission: Turbo 350 Miles Per Gallon: 21

This great 1967 Chevelle is owned by Roy Drury and his son Roy. Roy is eighty years yound and found this 1967 Chevelle sitting in a the back yard and it was affordable so he bought it. Together this father and son have redone the whole interior, floor panels, and rear end. They continually work on their 1967 Chevelle and the last time they painted it with the cameleon paint that goes from gold to purple.

The next major revamp of their 1967 Chevelle is going to be to maximize fuel economy. Roy is going to put in a 283 c.i. and a 700R4 tranny. They are also going to use an Edelbrock intake manifold from the '70's oil crunch along with a small 450 cfm carb to try to get 25 miles per gallon around town. This is Roy's 1967 Chevelle daily driver after all.

I always think it is great when parents work on muscle cars with their children but how cool is it that dad is 80 years old and they are trying to get good gas mileage.
