The usual start with a neglected Chevy Chevelle. To this day the Chevelle is still thought to be one of the most sought after muscle cars of all time.
This one had quite a few parts missing. I had to source 2 other parts parts cars to get all of the parts I need to rebuild this thing. So 3 cars in total to make 1 and I’m still missing the windshield. I’m not sure exactly how I will make one yet so stay tuned until I figure it out.
rear missing tire is the least of the problems 
Engine Block remains but not much else 
Door Trunk and other parts missing
