Cheap Projects: '64 Chevelle SS

It's cold outside. Any gearhead who still has a job ought to be thinking about a winter project. We haven't seen a better one recently than this '64 Chevelle Super Sport in Leesburg, Virginia. Owner says it's a real Super Sport, although if you're one of those guys who cares about matching numbers, you might best move on.
But if you're looking for a good cheap project, this Chevelle could be it. The grunt body work is done. It's got a '68 327 matched to a Powerglide transmission. Engine is installed. Seller is asking $3,800, which seems fair. For our money, the 64 to 67 Chevelles are the best looking of the lot, particularly the Super Sports. By the looks of the photos, the owner has done the hardest work. You've got all winter to finish the rest.
