Wow. I hate you.
J/K naturally. Both good looking cars by themselves but when you put them together they really compliment each other. The beautiful lines of the 'vette are contrasted by the brutal presence of the Chevelle.
That would be a fun combination of cars to have, and they are both really sharp.

Beautiful rides!!! My first car ever was a '68 Chevelle, 327, Powerglide, Black vinyl top... My parents loved the day when I rebuilt the engine, added headers, cherry bombs and centerlines... Man, I loved that car... Your '69 looks like a beast!!!

Haven't had it on a dyno but it has to be pushing 425 hp and I've also down sized the cam twice(sorry don't remember the lift and duration) and did away with the solid rollers and put in hydraulic rollers.....
MSD Ignition.......and I think that's it.
I can't wait to get sidepipes on it.....the car will have everything growing up that I always wanted in a car...
Horse shoe shifter...hood pins....Z--stripes....Vinyl top..Big Block... and Side Pipes! Oh yeah.....ET mags.

Too hard to to pick a favorite. I wouldn't kick either one out of the hay! 
Nice cars. I've always been a Chevelle guy and very rarely have I been caught without one over the years. I've had 5 '69's and a '68. I presently have a '64 SS I'm working on.

Love it! I have a 73 convertible vette and a 69 ElCamino. Both cars have 4 spds. The ElCamino is more fun to drive because it's a little more radicle. The LS4 vette is a bone stock car. You just got to love old Chevys.
