Re: [Chevelle-List] 65 Z-16 Conv.

[vmckague]

I have noticed some talk about the NCOA. Okay I'm new here and to the world of chevelles. Bought a 64 el camino about 6 months ago and am slowly making it a daily driver. I have a book by Mike Mueller called the Chevelle buyers guide. From what I can get from some of the posts the NCOA isn't around anymore. Is that right and why?
