[Chevelle-list] OT 1965 Cheetah

[John Nasta]

BTW I got to see a 1965 Cheetah in person this past weekend. Quite a  
treat. The only car ever known to blow its own doors off.

 From an article about Cheetahs...

"Cheetahs are the only cars ever to blow the doors off Big Block  
Cobras ? and their own too!" Both Grant and Clusserath discovered that  
once you get a Cheetah up to about 180 mph the doors literally "blow  
off" and sail off into the landscape!

Chevelle content: There was also an original 1970 SS Chevelle there w/  
functional cowl induction hood. I did not get to speak to the owner  
but I could tell that it was an original by the age that showed on all  
the SS details (the rubber rear bumper pad, the emblems on the door  
panels & steering wheel, etc.).
