Re: 70 Chevelle factory stripe misplacement
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] ......If they can take it within the next month, then I can begin getting the other parts replated etc.  [/ QUOTE ] I love it when a plan comes together. 3 weeks ago I drove the pilot car into my shop and today I am WELL ahead of the game. The body was picked up today from the soda blaster, engine, trans and rear will be done by next week and the frame should be rolling inside of 4 weeks. Bout time things work according to plans. [/ QUOTE ] Sounds like you're definitely moving quickly on that one Rick. Way to go.  The painter came out and says he can take the car from June 15th to the first week of July. I will loosely assemble the rest of the body so they can "dry build" it to check alignment etc. So between now and June 15th, I need to start lining up my plater, upholsterer, and find some miscellaneous missing/damaged pieces. I think fall Vettefest may be a good target date to shoot for.

Re: 70 Chevelle factory stripe misplacement
Free time? It aint free any more but it sure feels good to be at it again full time.
Rick, lets park them together in the showcase.  Two green cars side by side.

Who's the best plater to use for my bumpers? Dennis, You've got nothing to be jealous of. Your original owner status keeps you in a league of your own.
