[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img] I'm assuming you grew up in Centreville area, so do you know Donnie Piper? Big time Chevelle lover, and his brother had a 68 hemi RR. (2 were sold in Centreville around the same time.)

PS- it's going down to -3F tonight. </div></div>

Barry I sure did know Donnie a lot older than me though. Another one was Ceril Giberson. He had a Plum Hemi RR. Yes grew up in the big village of Centreville lol. Came to the US with Caterpillar in 89. I have a business also called The Cobra Jet Den.

So you're a Cobra Jet expert, yes? I'm going to look at a 69 428 CJ Mustang next weekend. Where are the rust issues on these cars? Any particular things I should be looking for? ( I'm pretty much a GM guy. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]

Yes, I recognize the name Cyril Giberson, although I've never met him.

They are unibody as you likely know. Fender apron tops at the shock towers, torque boxes, and rear frame rails at the front leaf area are prone. Everything is cheap except the labor lol. Send me an email and I can help with the numbers stuff.
