He doesn't mention the Rallye wheels but I suspect they were added and something was done to the springs to change the stance, but I agree it's a good looking car. I'd be tempted to put the 283 back in if I were to buy it.

Agreed also. That's a nice Chevelle and he does say he kept all the original parts including the born with engine.

Just went to CL to see if Chevelle was still there and came across this Pontiac https://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/c...922607879.html
w Wish it was closer!

That looks like a great car right there. Price seems very reasonable.

More than very reasonable. The 326 was a very good engine. My Tempest Custom gave me around 25mpg running back and froth to Rochester, NY from Massena. If I absolutely had to I'd even put a 326 with a 4bbl in my GTO. And unless someone new the engine code, they'd never know the difference.

I absolutely love the 326 ... all performance considerations aside, it was a rock solid engine that seemed to me to be extremely dimension-ally stable and would go a couple hundred thousand miles easy with the usual replacement of timing chain, lifters etc.
Our 66 when I was a kid .... the freakin oil would come out of that thing after 3000 miles looking like you just poured it out of a can. 20 mpg all day long with a 2 barrel and a powerglide. I'd love to own a another 66 with a 326, 4 bbl, auto, no power anything and a Sears add on AC |

3.8 turd? Ford yes, GM I think not
Quote:
The best ones are from 1988-1992. Before 1988 it was called a 3.8. Then they changed the nomenclature to 3800 when they upgraded it with an internal balance shaft and roller lifters. 1992 was the last year they used all aluminum intake manifolds. For '93, the bean counters at GM decided to make the upper intake plenum out of plastic . These are well known to cause a coolant passage failure in the intake gasket, usually before 125K-150K miles. If it's caught early, they can have the same longevity as the 88-92 motor. The 3.8 "turd" SSR was informed of must have been the one found in Ford mini vans.

Always been about my favorite body style on the Bonneville. Maybe $7Gs?
