Howard,
 It's one heck of a learning experience like you say. I've owned at least 1 
69 Chevelle since 1974 and have been restoring 69 Chevelles exclusively 
since 1992. Just when I think I know all there is to know about 69 
Chevelles, I learn something new from the list or Team Chevelle. It's a 
great hobby.
 Good to have a bodyman on the list. Glad you didn't leave us a couple of 
months ago.

Trooper,

I started out collecting 55 chev's and playing with them.
There all gone,one's you could aford to buy and fix up
and race at the drags.
I then went to Chevells and there just as much as my 55.
On the West Coast,I haven't filler in a lead seam area,
but thats why I joined Team Chevelle...To learn.

Its been great reading all the information comming out
on the list.

My Grandmothers car was a lemon.

Ill keep reading and learning.
Thanks for the heads-up.

Okay - so I will not consider the fact that the quarters are sealed with
filler as an indication that they were replaced at some point.  One has
obviously had work on it - the other is straight as an arrow and rust free.
Well, one out of two ain't that bad...
