1970 Duramax Chevrolet Chevelle custom - Click above for high-res image gallery
The clean exterior of this 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle hides a wicked little secret - if you take a look at the photo above, you'll see what we mean. The bundle of plumbing you see spilling out of the engine bay tells only part of the story - that's no overworked Chevy small block in there, it's a Duramax diesel that has been pushed to new heights thanks to an outrageous custom twin-turbo setup. The stripped-out interior and racing slicks out back show the true purpose of this ride.
the Chevelle was built by Mike Racke and was recognized as one of
Popular Hot Rodding magazine's Top Ten Builds this year. We couldn't agree more.
