[portfolio_slideshow id=14665] Part muscle car, part rat rod, and with a hint of vintage drag and NASCAR features, Matt Hunt’s Affliction Chevelle is setting new trends in the muscle car arena. When this customized 1966 Chevelle made its appearance at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, NV, the premiere show for the automotive aftermarket and
