Default Re: Tyler's 1971 Chevelle Restoration

He is targeting a cool ride. Something to sell at a reasonable price when done. His budget is tight, so no LS6 clone or other expensive restoration.

We have talked about this. To learn how to do the high dollar restorations the basics must be top notch. i.e Sheet metal has to be done right. Paint has to be good.

Bolt on parts do not need to be original for this one.

I told him do not even think past the sheet metal work, suspension and paint. But to keep an eye out for deals on the missing parts interior parts. maybe a 12 bolt if real cheap.

Once the body is in paint the it will be joy to put back together.
