Re: [Chevelle-List] 1969 chevelle
I scored some great deals at Englishtown Sat. I got a set of NOS GM 1/4's for my 69. They had been previously installed but never painted and in the factory black primer. The guy who removed them did a good job of cutting them bigger than the 1/4 so it's all still there. (They'll obviously require some tome to remove nicely, but time, I can manage!) I am going to use them on my ragtop so I will have to cut them up anyhow. $200 for the pair! I also got a set of BFG Drag radials that look just about new. 275/60- 15 for $100. And we didn't get rained on! Couldn't have asked for more!

Re: [Chevelle-List] Went to Car Show
There is this guy i talk to, has a beatiful 67 chevelle. He was at one car show, some guys invited him to another. It was a long drive, so he put the velle on a trailer. When he gets there, the guy says no trailered cars. He reads all the rules, and it doesnt say anywhere that it cant be trailered. After a big argument, the guy finally let him in, but it couldnt be judged. Turns out, the jerk that wouldnt let him in, had a 67, and my friends 67 was alot better. He just didnt want to lose. Shows how messed up some people are. But in the end, my friend got him back, buy leaving a huge cloud of tire smoke in his face on the cruise lolbut i just remember that story...Mines no show stopper, just a daily driver, so i just go to chat and have fun!

[Chevelle-List] 1969 chevelle
If anyone has noticed I have a 68 grill in my 69 chevelle right now, but the good news is I found a 69 grill at a swap meet on Sunday. It rained all day and was very cold to be hunting for parts. It was all worth it because I ended up getting all the parts I need to put it back to the way it should be. Looks like I will have a 68 chevelle grill for Ebay in a little bit.

RE: [Chevelle-List] Went to Car Show
Was it a "people's choice" show? Its certainly a little easier to win at one of those shows if you have ab unch of friends there who will vote for you. Judged shows are ostensibly impartial and based on the relative merits of the vehicle rather than the owner. -Original Message- Speaking of there are alot of shows here in NJ that are rigged. i found that out when a POS 71 monte Carlo beat me out. it had no interior, no inner fenders, crappy paint job, rigged up roll cage, and it was a filthy thing at that.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Identify Drivers
This is true! Central Illinois driver can be identified by seeing how close they can ride your bumper while traveling as fast as one can drive in bumper to bumper traffic with the one beside them trying to slide over between the bumpers, while eating a McDonalds Cheeseburger and talking on a cell phone about all the highway construction they are currently driving thru. - To Unsubscribe please visit www.chevelles.net/list.html To start a new topic, send mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: [Chevelle-List] Quieting the noise inside
I got sick and tired of spending $12 per can on the super 77, so I looked for an alternitive. The local industrial fabric shop sells a knock off brand for $6.50. Works perfectly, cant tell the difference, even has the cool adjustable nozzle. It is worth looking into concidering how many cans you go through. Sean 66 Chevelle >Home depot sells super 77.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Quadra Jet
Tom, I'm under the impression you're doing a restoration on your '64. If this is true a Q-Jet would be incorrect, but if you really want one you can get them new from GM and Edelbrock offers a version (these are the options Jim Hunter's considering), and for rebuilds you might start with your local Yellow Pages and also check Hemmings Motor News for rebuilders. Good luck!

[Chevelle-List] Went to Car Show
I took the 71 Chevelle to three car shows this weekend and learned lot about shows. The first show was a AACA event in New Smyrna Beach, FL. This was not a class show, but what everyone calls a Fun Show. Their was judging by the participates,and the city mayor for a total of six awards. I did not win. The second show was not a judging show, but a show off event at the Volusia Mall. The third event was one in Titisville, Fl. There were 12 awards given out and again, I did not win. I can see the problem now and will have to stop trying and wishing that I could win some kind of award for my car. My car is classified as a Modified. This puts me in with all 193?-1980 cars. Some of these people have spent 10,15,000 or more fixing the car. These look to me like cars and people who may have had the car taken somewhere and done by a pro restore business. There is no why I and anyone else could compete with this. Oh Well, I had fun any way. I will just have to go for fun now. Most of the awards are going to 1930's 1940's and 1950's cars. Another problem I see is that their are too many car clubs. How does one keep up with this. There was a Goodguy show in Orlando, but I decided not to go. It was a full sunny weekend and the Orlando show has no shade nowhere. I cooked at the Titisville show as it was. If this lady next to me at the show had not shared her 45 sunblocking lotion with me, I would be a lobster right now. I did meet Jeff from the list and had fun looking over his car. I can not even compete with his car. It was a thing of beauty. He should be very proud. I hope over time to meet with others on the list. Just thought I would share my weekend. Keith Cooper
