Rob, I bet even the Chevy guys will vote for yours compared to a 71 Chevelle.

Is that a sadly misshaped stripe or an unfortunate light reflection on the side of that Chevelle.

That's the "Heavy Chevy" stripe. It is ugly and a lame attempt to add side stripes to compete with the wide w30 side stripes.

I think that Chevy stripe is correct for the 69'. I've never seen it on a 71'. Doesn't really fit that "squared off" nose style. BTW Rob you have an unfair advantage, your car has way more character than any 70 -71 Chevelle. And it's not because I'm bias being an Olds lover. If they put it up against a 69' Chevelle it might actually be a contender. I still think your 442 would win though. https://static.cargurus.com/images/s...1-200x200.jpeg

One more for you..currently at 90.25.

The heavy chevy was really just a basic car. Marxjunk summed it up pretty good.

Done

Interesting the choices are in the reverse order of the photos. Are they hoping to give the Chev a boost from people not paying attention? :-D

88.59 Still kickin butt. Told you the competition was unfair. No way a 69' 442 is going to lose to that Chevy.

Still ahead 84.25% to 15.75%. I'd say he'd have to do some politicking if he wants to get close, but as I previously stated, you can't put a 71' Chevelle up against a 69' 442 & expect to win.
