    Hello from the Northeast !

     



    Hey everyone, Nick here. Currently starting to rebuild the '30 over 454 I have in my '66 Chevelle. Got it at Auburn in '09 and it was originally a nicely built Ohio P/S ( Pro Street , not P.O.S. LOL ! ) . Nice ride but the cam wasn't happy and self destructed under load ( whoops.. ) Looking forward to learning some new things and hopefully not making any dumb ass choices in regards to the rebuild !

    Welcome to CHR Nick, good having you here. There's a number of BBC guys on here, I'm sure you'll be able to get lots of good advice on your build!

    Yep, welcome to CHR! We'd like to see your Chevelle one of these days when you have time to post a few pictures.

    Another Nick welcoming the new Nick. Welcome. Good luck with your '66 Chevelle, one of my favorite years for Chevelles.


    I remember back in '66 when one of my buddies turned 16 and showed up driving a brand new '396 black/red convertible...none of us could believe it but there it was. He said his mom bought it for herself but somehow he ended up driving it most of the time until, sadly, he totaled it about a year later.
