Rick,
That's where I got the idea. I just dropped off the car today. I'll wait and see what the new paint looks like before I add stripes.
Btw, I got the tour of the "back building" this am when I dropped her off. MINGYA!
I knew Rick ( Fineline Collision , S. Wales, NY )had a 69 but I was taken aback at what I saw. 69SS396 375 HP numbers match, red on red. Georgeous. Next to it 68RS/SS 396 Camaro, air, deluxe interior, vinyl top, red on black. Mint. 67 drag Vette. 60 something Cameo, 69 Nova SS396/375. All original numbers matching cars.
And nevermind about the Shelby GT500 427 and the 56 T bird. Customers cars.
For a few minutes in was in a gearheads heaven!!!
If only my lowly 67SS396 looks anywhere as good as his cars when he's done. Then I'll be livin' in resto-head heaven!
Actually, I hope it'll be good enough to make one of the Team Chevelle cars of the month next year. And that there is some stiff competition. ( Oh, and run a 7.50 in the 1/8th.)
Thnx again for all the advice.
