Hello,
I am a newbie on this board and am looking for some help. This is my second chevelle. My first one was a 67 ss hardtop some years ago and since then I have owned several pro touring camaros. Well I have since bought a 70 chevelle ss convertible but have some questions about the 70 chevelles in general. I hope you can bear with me as I am not that experienced with the chevelles and am looking to get as informed as possible so here it goes and thanks in advance:thumbsup:
1. My chevelle has a black exterior with WHITE stripes and a RED interior Is this a normal color combo?
2. Did the stripes on an SS only come in Black and White or were there other colors available from the factory?
3. The SS dashes I see around are all BLACK including the glove box. If I have an original RED interior do I need to paint it RED? or do they sell them for red interiors? (Mine has a covans dash insert in it which is red along with the rest of the dash and I am thinking of switching back since I like the stock look)
4. I notice that hood pins are on alot of chevelle ss cars but I only see them on HARDTOPS with the COWL INDUCTION FLAP? This is a two part question.... First are the hoodpins used only on hardtops? and if the answer is no then are they only used on TRUE COWL INDUCTION HOODS WITH THE FLAPS or were they available on the non flap cowl induction hoods as well?
Like I said I am trying to get as much info on these cars as I can so any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mark
