Greg and I teamed up this weekend and began the resto. We accomplished our goal, which was to complete the entire chassis with drivetrain.

The manual steering box is just a mock up, as we are awaiting the power steering box to arrive. This is a Power Steering optioned car.

Mark...thanks for lending a helping hand. Always nice to see you, next time drag that new dual diaper changing Dad with you.

How many of you started out with your very first bike... with a V-Max? Mark did http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif

Darren I dont want to see any body shots of Dan. Vasic Im sorry I missed you this weekend but the boys have been sick for a week or so and I didn't want to spread the germ around. Maybe I might tag along with Mark and come up next month to your Chi-Town show. Mark

[Postsedan]

Mark,

Hope you can make the trip up in November.

Dan.

[Postsedan]

Darren,

The body arrives from the body shop in a week or so. I think your gonna like it.

Dan.

[Mr.Nickey Nova]

Looks good Dan,was a lot to complete for one weekend of work.Can't wait to see the car done,keep the pics coming.

Lookin' good, guys...

[Postsedan]

Pics are back up now....

Dan.

[Bill Rose]

I wasn't getting the pictures till now. Looks great Dan. I spoke to Jim last week, and he said you guys were assembling the chassis. Those pictures remind me of something, I just can't put my finger on it right now http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

We'll see you guys in a few short weeks? Looking forward to the trip to Chicago. I've never been to your neck of the woods. Are any of you guys, besides Jim, bringing cars to the show?

[Postsedan]

Bill,

As always... it will be a blast hanging out with you and the Baddabing Gang from NJ.

Just Jim will be bringing his 1969 Chevelle to the show.

Dan.

[Postsedan]

This weekend Greg and I put the body on the frame, finished off the firewall, installed all of the new side glass, gas tank and rear trim.

I must say the Rallye Green looks awesome on a 69 Chevelle.

[Rixls6]

Extremely nice looking. Love the Rallye Green on that body.

[72-SS-L48]

Super Cool!

[wheelhop]

That's all you could do in a weekend?

[Postsedan]

Zip It! Lumber Jack!

Dan.

[Ngtflyr]

Looking Awesome!! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/Can-I-Have-It.gif

[Mr.Nickey Nova]

Looking good Dan,rallye green sure is a great color.A couple more weekends should finish her up,keep the pics coming.

[RPOLS3]

Looks great.

[Xplantdad]

Dan...looks awesome! Call me tomorrow!

[markjohnson]

Gotta say, Rallye Green was one my least favorite colors for the longest time. But about 10 years ago, it really started to grow on me. That is a real Musclecar color! It's kinda like when you see Rallye Green from very far away and can't even tell what kind of car it's even on......you just know it's gonna be on something cool and fast!

[Donnie]

I like it!

where did the power steering hoses come from?

[ddmrk]

LOOKS GREAT !!!!!!!!!

[mockingbird812]

Sweet Dan. She is one fine ride and the <font color="green"> R Green </font> is KILLER!! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif

Looks great Dan. Like all the others have said that Ralley Green is killer!!

[Woj]

Looking good Dan. You make it look easy.

Phil Woj http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

[Don_Lightfoot]

Agree with the rest Dan, you and Greg do nice work.

Are you going to put a side stripe on it? If so, what colour?

[Schonyenko2]

As cool as that looks GM really messed up to have not offered that as a RPO color option on Chevelles. Very nice. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

[chads454Ls6]

Looks great Dan! Greg has some really sweet colored chevelles.

Dash....we have no proof, but we do believe there is indeed only 27K miles on this car. Just seems to be correct, due to all the unique parts that were in such nice worn free condition. Plus the fact that this car was raced most all its life.

Jeff,

The sticker is attached when you open an NOS Radio box. I do not know of anyone offering this sticker/decal.
Perhaps a new challange for Mr. Cumby or Mr. Lightfoot http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/youguysrock.gif

[Mr70]

Those are antenna trimmer adjustment instructions,used from 1968-73 for AM radios <u>only</u> Jeff.
They were removed from the radio,once the radio became part of the vehicle,trucks included..I've yet to see/hear any radio that was delivered with them still attached,as they hindered the buttons function,and had no use to the owner.
They told the prep tech how to trim the antenna during installation,prior to delivery.

----------ANTENNA TRIMMER ADJUSTMENT-------------
1)Tune to weak station or noise around 1400kc.
2)Remove right hand tuning and dummy knobs.
3)Adjust trimmer screw for max output.
4)Replace knobs and REMOVE THIS TAG.
5)Remove excess glue from pushbuttons with alcohol only.CAUTION:DO NOT USE LACQUER THINNER.

They measure 2-3/4" X 3/4" w/red type.
Hamptons was reproducing these,when they were in business in the 1980's.I heard Osborn was afterwards.

Donnie,

The customer wanted this added.....he also owns a 1970 Chevelle which explains his reasoning.

Dan.

The later built chevelles in 69 could have been ordered with the F41 suspension.
