Finally got that ugly blue crap off the tire lettering... took a lot of elbow grease, trying not to resort to something too abrasive.

I went to test fit this pair of NMW tow tabs that I picked up on this site many years ago, only to find that the holes had already been drilled in the frame. Evidently this Chevelle has worn a set of these before. The holes don't line up perfectly, but these tabs look like there could be some slight variation from one set to another? The front bumper had been replaced back in the early 80's so I will have to get up the nerve to drill the hole in the base of the bumper to mount them properly.

I finally had time to install these... the parts were in mint original condition. Even the air hose was soft like new.

I raised the ride height just a little to clear the new rubber... sure like the new stance!

This is the other 1969 Chevelle L89/L88 conversion Mel Perry did at Norwood Motors. The copies of the window sticker and photos we're obtained from the original owner.
