You need a set of those old clear plastic, crinkly, seat covers to go over that cloth interior for the perfect original, nostalgic, "burn your butt in the summertime" look. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Dan.... outstanding job again! I didn't think I'd ever see another Chevelle as nice as the yellow one you did but I think from what I've seen so far, this one is going to be even nicer!! For me, to own a post Chevelle of that caliber would be a fantasy and a dream come true. I can't wait to see this car finished and in person.....yur the best Dan!!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Looks Good Dan. Your yellow 69 was next to me in Niagara Falls last year. This one looks as good or better. I understand you will be bringing it to Nashville?? Been there for the last 5 years. Looks like we will be there again this year. Hope to see the car finished.

BTW: Did you really want the insulation behind the rear seat in that way??

Thanks everyone.... It`s Greg that should get the credit....I just do the resto. It`s great to build such great cars for a great guy...one who really enjoys the cars and hobby.

Bill....Looking forward to Chevel-Abration....this time you and Albert are buying the pizza https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Both cars....Daytona Yellow and Monaco Orange will be at Chevel-Abration....among all the other 69 SS 300 Deluxe Post Sedan feature cars. I know of atleast 6....SS 300 Deluxe Post Sedans....attending the show.
