Except it really isn't a survivor. The PO didn't do a great job when he had it painted in 1983. Overspray on everything. Besides, I already have the body off.

Don't remember seeing Chevys on I Dream of Jeannie. Probably too distracted by Jeannie.

Lots of Chevys on Bewitched.

I have had the car since 1976. My brother bought it in 75. He was just 15 and in way over his head. I traded him for my 70 Opel Kadette Rallye.

Holley Carb. Apparently, the original was swapped out somewhere along the way.

This one looks pretty grimy, but it ran perfectly. No hesitation; no flat spots.

Has correct metering plates. ...

Yup. Eyes wide open. I knew is would be a challenge.

All the shims are simply thick aluminum washers on this car.

All are corroded to some extent, with some being worse, and several are in...

57 3100 on Ebay

Given the prices of these trucks, this probably deserves a second look.

Have no idea how well the frame graft was done, and no way to tell how well the paint prep was performed.

Would be nice...

Pics of my 10 10 Z/28

Given the prices of some of the 69 Z/28's lately, I decided to up the coverage. Tami at MK said that wasn't a problem, but underwriting wanted some contemporaneous photos.

So, got it out...

I am sure size has something to do with it. But the similarity is only in the skin. The Opel is unibody.

Free radiator 68 El Camino with A/C

Since replacing the T-stat it has NEVER once...

I was shocked to learn that all of the body mount bushings are solid aluminum. I learned that before removing the body, so at least I wasn't surprosed.

Using a mic, they don't seem to be the...

Couple of questions.
