69chevert Dec 5th, 09, 9:16 PM Hi all, just recently purchased a 1969 Chevelle Convertible "Project" for my Dad and I to work on. Hopefully it will turn out to be one of those memorable experiences that when my Dad or I look back on will bring a tear and a smile to our faces. I have been reading quite a lot here and just thought I would share and say thanks for all the valuable information this site has. Here's what we got to work with...

Thanks for the advice...I will definitely look into that. I have been staring at the floor boards for the past few days just mapping it all out in my head so far.
