Donnie done good... I saw these pics last week when the car arrived at it's new home. It looks like a good solid start, and a cool resto project. If it comes out half as nice as his 70 Chevelle, it will be a head turner.

Awesome Car!! Good base to start with for the resto. Looks like it should be fairly easy, solid car.. I love white and to boot an L78 Car... Does not get any better than that!!

Congrads Donnie.....

Way to go Donnie! I am sure it will be every bit as nice as your 70 when completed as you are as anal as I am and maybe even a little more. Looks great with the black top and stripe. Keep us abreast of the restoration.

Phil,
thats weird that you ask for updates. I just did a search for this post and sent it to a body guy that I know in Indy, where the car might be headed soon.
I have collected more parts sent the trim out to be polished.
also just sent the alternator and distributor for rebuild.
and a G.M. smog system is also being rebuilt for it.
