This aint your Grandmas ordinary car
Posted by Butz on Saturday, August 14, 2010 11:41 PM

Howdy all,

 While at my LHS this afternoon, I noticed across the street at my friends auto body shop, a real nice 82 four door Chevelle which was being tinkered with. Upon further look, this was not no ordinary 82.

 From the outside as well as the interior she looked stock but under the hood was raw power at it's best... Not to sure of the cubic inch but this thing cranked out 500 horse power and had a single stage nitros set up to boot Bow Down

 All I can say was when Chris fired her up and took her out for a little spin.. My jaw slamed to the floor as the Chevelle sat down and the front wheels lifted a good four inches off the road..

 And to think, this thing is street legal... Stick out tongue

 

 

 

Flaps up,

Mike

A burgundy 4-door packin' that kind of power. Cool!

Only way it could be better would be if it were a crusty old wagon with faded woodgrain!

I'd really like to apologize now for anything I may say or do later that offends you. Thank you.

I imagine the sound of that bad boy would let the cat out of the bag.Unless it's got a quiet exhaust system.

Nice.  Probably a 383, or other stroker small block.  Had a friend who had a box Caprice 4 door with a big block in it.  It had the 9C1 sway bars and heavy duty springs.  The car ran and handled quite well, and looked like your ordinary 305-engined 80's Caprice....  until you stood on the gas pedal. 

Sleepers are cool.

Old, but still looks new. Anyway, if you want something new or used car, Dave Smith Motors offer such vehicles. There aren't many labels larger than Dave Smith Motors for vehicle dealerships within the |Northwest part of the country, especially for Washington, North Idaho and Montana. Dave Smith Motors, in Kellogg, Idaho, is probably the best place to go for a new Chevrolet or new Chrysler, Jeep, and especially for a new Dodge.

The proof is here: Any Dodge needed in the Inland Northwest is likely at Dave Smith Motors

Dave Smith Motors is really kind of famous for it. It's the largest Dodge, Jeep and Chrysler dealer there is. Used or new Dodge vehicles and a generous selection of Dodge trucks are accessible. There isn't likely to be better selection anywhere than Dave Smith Motors.
