Looks like I was the only one who knew how the camera worked! Besides, we all know "IT'S ALL ABOUT THE CARS!" [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Kevin,
Can you give us any details on the Chevelle? I'm kinda partial to the color.

Dennis, yes Black is great! I really like yours without stripes as well. That was a bold move to order it as a stripe delete; it is very classy/stunning. It is very special that you kept it all original.

As with a lot of young guys wanting to go faster, I did everything you could, by modifying mine. Couldn't un-bolt the smog pump fast enough (went in the trash can [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] ). Built the Motor, balanced blueprinted, 12 to 1 pistons, bigger cam (but don't remember the specs), accel ignition, hooker headers, ebdelbrock, front lift kit, rear hi-jacker air shocks, NMW Ladder bars, 4.56 gears, etc. Basically, everything the way Motion Performance built cars, but did it myself.

Kevin,
Not so much a bold move as an act of desperation. The stripes were a part of the CI package and that meant $$$$, something I didn't have. Same for the buckets, console, gauges, etc. Low budget operation in 1970. We did go the route of Tires, Wheels, Headers, etc. for a while but luck was with me in keeping most all of the original pieces. Thank God I didn't trash an Air Cleaner or distributor!

So did you start with the LS-6 engine or something else? Sounds like you had a major investment in aftermarket stuff.

Frank,
It wasn't these pix I was referring to. Wait 'til you see some of the others. I'm still looking!!!

This is what it looks like after you get tired of the cops pulling you over all the time.
