Hei wires were a vast improvement to engine neatness. Like the gold with brown interior. gldmembr May 1st, 08, 10:43 PM Need to throw in a closeup of the engine. nothing fancy, but clean. gldmembr May 1st, 08, 10:45 PM did you check the license plate? MYMUSCLE? gotta laugh........ gldmembr May 1st, 08, 10:46 PM joseph, is your car Mulsane blue? man i just love a 71 in mulsane blue with white stripes and white leather inside...... shannon2356 May 2nd, 08, 12:27 AM Hey The car Looks great! And the white strips look great with the tan interoir. Most people would have went with black strips. I like the white. Its on of those color combo's. You would not think it would work until you see it. And the more parts you put on it the better it looks. Great job. 1972convss454 May 2nd, 08, 10:35 AM joseph, is your car Mulsane blue? man i just love a 71 in mulsane blue with white stripes and white leather inside...... Your correct, I had thought about changing it but it was the original color combo so I left it. I am glad I did now. You definitely see it coming down the road. You coming to Chevell-a'bration? We need a strong showing of convertibles.... gldmembr May 2nd, 08, 9:39 PM That's a long-ass ways away. I'm on the NC coast. Nashville is tttoooooooooooooooo Far. Unless someone loans me a covered trailer and a truck to haul it. And its not really ready for that type of show. daveo1 May 3rd, 08, 8:31 AM Need to throw in a closeup of the engine. nothing fancy, but clean. Yes do! savage71chevelless May 5th, 08, 7:55 PM That is awesome, if I get another 71, I would love to get Placer Gold, love that paint color. Where in NC are you? gldmembr May 8th, 08, 10:20 PM New Bern, NC Andy69 May 21st, 08, 5:06 PM nice rc51racer May 16th, 12, 12:51 PM Nice car!. I'm coming close to the end of my Chevelle project too. Mine is a 72 Malibu that I have owned since 1978. It is code 53 Placer Gold also. Hopefully I should have paint on the car this week or early next week. The paint guy that I'm using is having some issues matching the paint. How did you do the color match? or did you just buy the Placer Gold from someone? My paint guy has too much green in it and for the money I'm spending, I'm being pretty picky about it Great looking car. Enjoy it! | ||
