Very rare, one-of-a-kind, pro-touring 1965 Chevelle 300

Chevrolet Chevelle 1965 Description

This is a very rare one-of-a-kind pro-touring 1965 300 Chevelle 2-door "Post".

Same owner since 1990. Was my first car and drove it daily to high school in Arizona until I garaged it for 17 years while serving in the military. Began complete frame-off build four years ago and completed it in June of 2014. 850 miles on the car since completion (includes 500 mile clutch break-in recommended by McLeod). It has only been driven to car shows and two cruises during nice weather.
