Back in 1964 the Chevrolet introduced the Chevelle as a mid size car. The 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle was the wind up of the first generation of the American classic. This Chevelle is a 2-door SS (Super Sport), was the boldest of all Chevelles. Chevelle was one of the Cheverolet's most successful nameplates.

In 1966, the Chevelles was redesigned externally from top to bottom. New sheet metal in almost all areas which made it look like a new car. The fenders were more rounded and extended beyond the edge of the car's center panel at both ends, giving it that refined 'Coke bottle' line that was extremely popular at the that time. so popular that every American manufacturer had to have a car looking like that back in the 60's.

The original 3-spoke steering wheel was replaced by a smaller, drilled, SS one with a wooden. The steering wheel sits in front of the rectangular odometer. The ventilation controls are positioned in the sloping lower area of the dash in the center, below the original radio unit. The seats are modified to make the driver and passenger more even comfortable. The Gear stick is also modified in a very different way than  other cars.
