Who's product did you use to paint the underside? |
Re: 1969 SS396 325hp Chevelle
We decided to change out the Hurst Shifter and go with a Really Unique and Cool Shifter.....a P&G with a Reverse Lock-Out, if it was good enough for "Grumpy Jenkins".....it is certainly good enough for us [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
This Shifter is new complete in the box, never used....love the instructions [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] <a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/user/Postsedan/media/Postsedan2016/image.jpg2_zpsdqrstfs0.jpg.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...psdqrstfs0.jpg[/UR [URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/Postsedan/media/Postsedan2016/image.jpg1_zpspqtd2nvx.jpg.html]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...pspqtd2nvx.jpg</a> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps8pfq7nkp.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps24xjqy9m.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...psvcozkud8.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...psfu8s3dmm.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...pswfnaobuz.jpg Dan |

We pulled out the 1969 GTO Judge today.....the next car waiting for a complete 100% correct nut and bolt frame off restoration [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Re: 1969 SS396 325hp Chevelle
What drivetrain on the Judge?
There is one at Floyd Garretts like that and one comes to PSMCDR:-) I love the lack of trim rings!! Ryan |
Re: 1969 SS396 325hp Chevelle
That shifter sure looks familiar! I hope it works as well as it looks....
|
Re: 1969 SS396 325hp Chevelle
You don't see a P&G shifter very often, especially NOS. I'm digging it.
|
Re: 1969 SS396 325hp Chevelle
Dan can,t get enough of this car and the work you are doing to make this car a sure
winner. That P&G shifter is one out of my younger days have not seen one in years, the Hurst you had in the is what I have in my car that I have had since 69 when I got tired of the Muncie shifter and having to fix it, keep up the great work. Chuck [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] |

Having the fenders bolted on without any support in the front doesn't cause any issues |

Dan,
Are those SS headers the ones that Jeff (LuzL78's) friend makes? |

Re: 1969 SS396 325hp Chevelle
Nice work. How do those MT headers fit?

They fit great....they just must be handled with care.....was they are very thin in construction. Dan |
Re: 1969 SS396 325hp Chevelle
I sure wish I could hear that thing running with that motor and those headers!
|
Re: 1969 SS396 325hp Chevelle
Very nice!
Getting closer to done. Look forward to seeing it out and around our area. |
Re: 1969 SS396 325hp Chevelle
----Dan,,,The header gaskets look thick. Did you double up on them for some reason?.....Bill S

Re: 1969 SS396 325hp Chevelle
That is going to be killer when it's done.

NO BILL......THEY NOW HAVE A New THICK DESIGN GASKET AVAILABLE from "Remflex"... they are $38 per set, well worth the money. I learned early in life "Double Gasketing is a No-No [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img] Dan |

Re: 1969 SS396 325hp Chevelle
Shoot...... if I had known you were painting some Code 57 Glade Green today I would have asked for a colour swatch.... I need a sample for the powder coater so we can select the wheel colour.....
Nice work, what a nice car!!! Ryan |
