1970 Canadian Built Chevelle Extremely Documented

So body back on the chassis for test fitting doors, hood, fenders, etc. Once fitting has been completed back off the chassis. The reason for the door hinges pic is there have been occasions when points have been deducted when cars have been judged. Judge claims not painted...owner yes they were painted. Clearly these have the original paint. Having a friend restore then.
Funny feeling...it actually looks like a car.

Here are pics of the restored shocks.

I'm not sure I understand this comment. Some judges claim the door hinges are not painted?

I don't see how they could <span style="text-decoration: underline">not</span> be painted, as the doors were hung in the body shop and in place when the car went through the paint process.

I agree with Keith, my original paint 69 Camaro has the hinges painted body color. I have never witnessed a 60s GM car that did not have them body color.
