The greatest Chevrolet ever
In honor of their 100th birthday, Chevrolet let drivers vote on the Best Chevy Ever. The winner was a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro garnering over 25,000 votes. First runner-up was the 1970 Chevelle SS. Second runner-ups were the 1953 Corvette and 1957 Bel Air.
Mojo Motors polled fans on the Mojo Motors Facebook page and while most agreed that the 1969 Camaro was the greatest Chevy, other heavy favorites emerged. For some fans, the greatest Chevy ever is the Plymouth GSX, 1987 Thunderbird, 1969 Barracuda, AMC Gremlin or Pontiac Fiero. Thing is, we’re pretty sure those aren’t Chevys and unless the Fiero is a Ferrari clone, it’s not great at all. For the real picks of the greatest Chevrolets, look at the pictures below and enjoy.
1968 Nova
1963 Split-Window Corvette
1969 El-Camino SS
1967 Corvette Sting Ray Convertible
1961 Impala Convertible
1936 Chevrolet Standard
Think we still missed one of the greatest Chevys ever? Leave a comment with your pick.

Thanks for the comment, Steven. We like the ’36 Standard. Mostly because it’s the foundation of some really cool street rods.

Since the Chevelle finished second overall on the Chevrolet website, this list was meant to feature other great Chevys.

My favorite is the 1969 Chevelle SS 396. My first car was a 1965 Chevelle Malibu that I bought for $450 in 1975 – man I wish I still had it.

Good list, but let’s not forget the 1953 BelAir nor the 1969 Corvette Stingray.
