Default 1969 Monaco Orange L78 300 Deluxe Post Sedan Resto

I had to miss the Barrett-Jackson weekend show....but thanks to Bruce I feel as though I hardly missed it.

Greg Cullum and I have some long weekends ahead of as we are
preparing our cars for what is going to be the largest first time ever gathering of the 1969 SS 300 Deluxe Post Sedan Chevelle.

I have so far gathered 6 of these rare cars to be attending the show in June....with a few more waiting for commitments.

Greg and I assembled the entire frame and reunited the frame to body all in 14 hrs....we also ate some good food in between.

Here are some pics.

Great looking work so far.

Quick question, did the engine frame stands have the large washers on the 2 mounting bolts originally? I've never seen that before.

WOW nice work. If the rest of the car is as good as your frame is then the car will be fabulous.
Thanks

I seen their work first hand on Saturday and even helped with the exhaust before my wife wanted to leave... The body is even better then the frame and I cant wait to see the car back together and next to its big brother... These cars have come a long way since that Summer day in Niagra where we salvaged them from.. Great work Greg, Dan, and your little helper Holden...
