I think Pat owns the M-22 twin to Jeff's COPO Chevelle.I saw both these cars at Atlanta Chevelle Showdown 1996,and ended up buying the Buildsheet TH400,Now Jeffs Chevelle.

I bought new camera, & I have some operator problems. This one's been under wraps for some time. paint delete car, M21, parchment buckets, chambered exhaust, gauges, radio delete. Dave T. resto. She's NEAT!! Many thanks to Tim!! I'm getting assistance to get the pics posted. Should have pics posted shortly, NO, it's not the orange Chevelle previously discussed.

Hey - a dash/dash paint code car painted gobi beige? That would be a contradiction in terms! Hmmm, but it is a '69 and Gobi was '70, maybe it could be a super rare special option /ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif

LV, tell me about the black/white floor in your shop. BTW, awesome Chevelle!

COPO,
I agree with you on both counts,but that blk/wht checkered floor is very/very /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif---JoeG

I used 12"X12" B&amp;W vinyl tiles, then glued them down to form 24"X24" B&amp;W pattern squares. That floor has been down for over a year, and no regrets [yet]. Every couple months, I use an electric floor scrubber machine to remove the old wax, then use an orbital buffer to apply fresh wax. I chose this over other floor surfaces because I wanted a checker-board pattern and it's easy to replace [single or several] tiles that become stained or haggered from use. The glued tiles have stayed down well, it's just the wax-off/wax-on 4-5 times a year that takes a half-day each time to do the 50'X110' floor area. So far...so good.

Sounds like a good alternative to the $4/sf Racedeck stuff and looks super! I have a 3,500 s/f area I will be doing shortly so I am looking for ideas. thanks /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif
