    🔧 BUILD 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air Bubbletop

    🔧 BUILD 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air Bubbletop

    Not much to update until I get the car back from the guy doing the metalwork - with it being a dirt road car the inner rockers need replaced, so he's having to hand fabricate a good bit of it that isn't offered aftermarket. I did get an engine on order, decided to go with the Blueprint LS3 -...

    ❄️ The Official TCG Complains about Snow Yearly Despite Living in the Midwest and it never snows here anyway.

    I've always said I don't mind the snow/cold, it's just the fuck tons of salt. Guess my truck and Camaro are parked until Spring likely.

    🔧 BUILD 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air Bubbletop

    Nope, it was just a 283 car. In '62, you could get a 283, 327, or 409 as far as the V8's went. The Bel Air was the only car that got the "Bubbletop" in 1962 - they did around 8k total '62 Bubbletops from the factory. There's probably that many or more now, as people will cut the top off a 61...

    1962 Chevrolet Bel Air Bubbletop

    My dad purchased this car in 1981 with the plans to do a 409 in it (actually had two 409s at the time), then life happened and he never got around to the build. He's getting to where he can't crawl around and work on stuff like he used to, so I proposed them bringing me the car to do the build...
