I was shocked to see both bumpers were sequenced. Only showing the rear. Body below heater box with "28"

The Transmission had "28" all over the place. My theory is that since the vin stamp looks to have been done while in the car that this transmission was repaired/replaced at the end of the line, and to make sure the right trans got there they marked it all over.

I never got the picture of before on the frame "28" but it was there very clearly while I was blasting the frame.

Ditto on the EATON Springs vs Moog

So nice to be able to document our Restorations in current time. Imagine how much Polaroid Film you'd need., and the waiting !!!

The first time I used Eaton springs was back in the mid 80's for my 63 SW vette. They were the only company that made the correct front springs, and I used Eaton springs ever since then. They do cost more and worth every penny.

Rick, beautiful work as always... years ago we battled the same with a 66 L36 Vette that had AC, power brakes and power steering. Car sat like a 4x4 when we got it due to generic replacement springs. We paid up for Eaton and never had an issue. Nice product.

Keep up 9n the good work here... your work is stunning. Happy New Year!

Dan
