Subject: [Chevelle-List] Update on my
69
Well it has been sometime since I
have done anything to my project 69 Mallibu. Mainly because it has been
way to cold out and I had to get the 70 ready for World of Wheels. Now I
can finally get the 69 done. I found the last part I need to complete
it, the vinyl top moldings. True Connections out in California had a set
so I bought them up. Now I can make an appointment to get the top and
headliner done. However, it will need to go back to the body shop to
have some minor things fixed. I also may have to tear the front end
apart to repaint the firewall, heater box, and a few other things. The
voltage regulator needs to be replaced. I drove it to work and on the
way home I noticed the lights were unusually bright. It appears that it
had been pumping out way too many volts causing the battery to overcharger and
boi! l over. Acid got all over the firewall, heater box, and exhaust
manifold and made the paint flake right off to the touch (I knew that was
going to happen). Hopefully it will be ready to rock 'n roll for the
upcoming season. It WILL be at the MCC show last year. I had
planned to unveil it there last year, but you know how things happen and
whatnot. I'll update again once I am near
completion.
