since Sept. 5, 1997


This area will keep you up to date on the changes made throughout the web site. It contains a running log of all the changes and additions that we make and when we make them. You will always find the latest information right here.


December 5, 2001 - Here it is, December already. I have been swamped again over the last month with updates and I'm starting to see light at the end of the tunnel. Our site experienced a problem with the registry form. Apparently, Geocities changed the code to their form without notifying anyone. I have no idea how long it hasn't been working, but I have it fixed and it's working great now. So, if you submitted a request to be added to the registry, and you don't see your name, please take a moment and resubmit. You will be added! More cars are being added to the galleries. I've also added a link to a brand new site... a registry for 1973 SS wagons. Check it out, it's a great site! Once again, thanks for your patience and keep tuned for more updates.

November 8, 2001 - Wow! I know it's taken forever for the new page to arrive, but here it is! Some of you saw a preview of it in the form of a Halloween theme page. There will be a few more theme pages in the future, but right now I'm happy getting this one in place. I have tons more work to do, including a huge back log of cars to get into the galleries and people to add to the registry. I'm sorry for any delays, but I have been swamped and I'm working as fast as I can in the time that I have. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to send them to me as always!

September 18, 2001 - You will notice that I had updated the main page with a tribute to those souls lost in the senseless acts of violence that occured in our country on Tuesday, September 11. We are not only saddened by the tragedy, but also by the fact that it takes something this devistating to unite an entire nation and nearly the entire world against hatred and violence. God Bless these United States and God rest the souls who's lives were lost. We pray for them, their families and friends, and we pray for hope and peace for our nation and our world.

July 17, 2001 - Lots of stuff happening! The first ever 73-77 Chevelle BBQ was held on July 7th at our home. Ater a slew of last minute cancelations, 3 die hard Chevelle owners braved the overcast skies and high humidity to hang out, eat lots of food and talk Chevelles. We had a blast! My thanks go out to Jim Rowhetter, Phil Jackson and (last but not least!) Rick Braman... thanks for making the trip! And special thanks to Rick for talking me into having another one next year. I should have some pics on the site soon.
I've added a ton of updates as well. There's a slew of new cars in the galleries, especially in the 1973 Malibu and the El Camino sections. About a dozen new members have been added to the Registry and in what little spare time I have, I'm creating a slightly new look for the site. I got some new software so I'm toying around!
We hope everyone is enjoying their summer! Drop us an email with a photo of your car at your favorite show or cruise spot!

June 13, 2001 - With summer now in full swing, I thought that the updates would start dropping off as usual. Instead, they're increasing! I've added a slew of new people to the Registry and some new cars to the 73 Malibu gallery, the 76 Laguna gallery and the Malibu Wagon gallery. The Laguna suspension project is moving along and I should have some more information to post in that section in the next few weeks. As always, drop us an email with your questions, comments, ideas, whatever! We're always happy to hear from our visitors.

May 15, 2001 - I've finally added a few more cars to the Galleries, specifically the 1973 Laguna, 1973 Malibu, 1975 Malibu and the El Camino galleries. Sorry for the delays folks. I've been working with some other die-hard G3 Chevelle owners on a couple of other projects, trying to get the 73-77 Chevelles a little more recognition. We hope that it works! For more details, visit the 73-77 Chevelle forum at Chevytalk.

May 8, 2001 - As the updates keep rolling in, I find I'm having less time to get them on the site, so please be patient and I'll get them up as soon as I can. I've got my suspension project back on track, so check it out for the latest info. A few more cars have been added to the 73 Malibu and 73 Laguna galleries and some new members have been added to the registry. The classifieds section is going full blast with new stuff being added every week. More updates are coming as time permits!

April 29, 2001 - We attended our first show yesterday (Saturday the 28th) at the Varsity Diner. Awesome show with a huge turn-out. Of course, not a G3 in site. There was, however, a very nice '76 Monte Carlo present and it was getting a lot of attention. Our Laguna isn't up to show standards right now, so it sat at home and we took Jacki's '70 Malibu. This is a great show and if you live in central Michigan, you should definitely check it out! Information is available in the Events section.

April 19, 2001 - We have added a brand new Classifieds Section to the site. This is much more user friendly and much faster than the old set up. If you need a part or have some spares, check it out, it's getting big. Some new members have been added to the Registry and some updated photos of members cars have been added as well. The big news is we've been in contact with the owner of a 1977 Chevelle SE. He's sent pics and info and all of it will be on the site soon, so watch for that! Stay tuned for more additions and developments as spring continues to... spring!

March 16, 2001 - Wow... updates have just been pouring in the last couple of weeks. Must be spring fever! I've added a bunch of new cars to several of the Galleries and some folks even sent in some updated photos of their cars that were already in the Galleries. Glad to see you all keeping me up to date! Some new owners have joined the Registry as well. And if you haven't been over to SPO lately, check it out. The site has been updated and a ton of new information has been added, including a list of parts they have available for our cars. It's an excellent start and they promise to deliver even more in the near future! As always, stay tuned for more updates. Feel free to drop us a note with comments, suggestions, etc.

March 2, 2001 - Spring is coming, spring is coming! Yeah, I know. It's only March. But we here in lower Michigan are in a warming trend at the moment and temperatures in the mid 40s tend to induce spring fever! For updates, a couple more people added to the Registry and some new cars in the Galleries, specifically in the 73 Malibu and the 77 Malibu sections. Great stuff! Make sure you drop by Chevytalk and check out the lastest topics of conversation. Also pop over to the SPO site and check out the updates they've made. Looking good so far!

February 28, 2001 - A few more folks have been added to the registry and some small changes have been made on the site. As a reminder, if you are listed in the Registry, please double check your email address to make sure I have the most current one. If not, please send me an email and I will update your information!

February 19, 2001 - Last Friday, I sent out a huge mass mailing to just over 500 73-77 Chevelle owners and enthusiasts, announcing plans by SPO to create the largest G3 registry in the world. This is an ambitious undertaking, as we well know! We have just over 300 members in our registry to date. We would love to see that number grow. SPO plans to use their registry as leverage with parts makers to show that there is indeed a market for restoration parts for the 3rd generation of Chevelles. If you did not receive a copy of my letter, or need information on how to join the SPO G3 Registry, let me know and I will be happy to email you the details!

February 18, 2001 - Sunday the 18th saw the passing of one of NASCAR's most famous and beloved drivers; Dale Earnhardt. The world of racing will likely never be the same again without the "Man in Black" on the track, using his special brand of racing to welcome the rookies to the big time. Though not one his biggest fans, I have always had a deep appreciation for his skills behind the wheel. He will be sorely missed and our hearts go out to his family and closest friends.

February 6, 2001 - February already?! Where does the time go? Hope all of you have bought something special for your sweethearts in honor of Valentine's Day. For updates, there are new cars in the 74 Laguna Gallery and in the 73 Malibu Gallery. A few new members have been added to the Registry and some other small changes have been made. This reminds me... if you are on the Registry, please double check your email address and make sure it is correct. If not, please send me your current address.

January 23, 2001 - Wow! I've been so busy making updates to the page that I completely missed updating this section. Okay, so I blew it. I'm allowed to make the occassional mistake! The latest updates to the site include a new Events section that will list local auto-related happenings and a few national events. A new Gallery has been added called Junkyard Dogs that shows 73-77 Chevelles where we least like to see them; in the junk yard! You'll also find a slew of new Chevelles added to the other galleries, a few new names on the Registry and a new musical selection has been added to the main page. On top of ALL of that, your's truely has been selected as the new moderator of the 73-77 Chevelle forum at Chevytalk, so drop by and say hello. As always, more updates and changes are in the works, so make sure you stop by and see what's new.

January 7, 2001 - Wow! It just doesn't seem possible that another year has gone by and a new one is starting up. They say that time flies when you are having fun... so I guess we must be having fun! 2000 saw some great changes to the site and a huge surge of contributions, not only with our web site, but with our hobby in general. We've seen the re-emergence of Chevelle SPO and Rick Roberts, the increase in support from Rick Harrington at ECParts and also the addition of some 73-77 Chevelle parts by National Parts Depot. Even the car mags have gotten into the act by showing a few examples in the Reader's Rides sections and also by printing letters from 73-77 owners looking for support. Car Craft even saw fit to showcase our website in their magazine not once, but twice! We now have almost 300 people in the Registry and we met our goal of 100 cars in the Gallery; in fact, we went over the top with it during the last week of the year and we now have 110 cars in the various Galleries! Congratulations and our thanks go out to all of you who made this possible by offering up photos of your Chevelles. We couldn't have done it without you. Your support is what has made our site what it is today. Also please note that we have been invited to join the Top 100 Muscle Car Sites list. There is a button on the main page that you can click on to vote for our site if you feel so inclined! We are hoping that 2001 will bring some more wonderful changes and additions to the web site. As always, we welcome your feedback, comments, suggestions and complaints! Just drop us a note and let us know how we are doing.
