Thanks. It definitely didn't come out as well as I had hoped (especially for what I paid for the bodywork), but it is fun to drive. Has lots of power and a nice musclecar sound. Now I just wish we could roll gas prices back to 1969 (I'll even settle for 1979). John Nasta -Original

They do feel good when you get to put them on the road after sitting up for a while because of what ever repairs or resto's have to be done. Once on the road all the problems and busted knuckles seem to disappear. John L. ACES #5597 70 LS5 TRIBUTE http://chevellfan.com/index89.html

In my case I wouldn't go that far. There are still some problems (like the whole paint job has to be done over) but I'm just going to use it as-is for a while, park it on the street, and maybe re-think it next summer. Hopefully by then things will have settled down. Right now anything that

Hi John, It's good to hear you and your Elky are still together! It's funny how muffler companies always claim improved gas mileage from their products but we all know better - the better they sound the less mpg we seem to get! Have fun! Herb Lumpp http://users.adelphia.net/~hlump/index.htm

If it's a Canadian-built Chevelle, the body tag (trim or firewall tag) will clearly state Made In Canada (with one exception and that's Chevelles built for export), see http://www.chevellestuff.com/68velle/68_trim_tags-os.htmfor some examples. Just because it's from Canada doesn't mean it

Speaking of MPG, any recommendations for a bed cover? I would probably get more MPG. A Pro-Net is not an option since the b/u lights are in the tailgate door. I'm thinking a soft cover rather than a hard one. I prefer to do as little drilling into the body as possible. Also, I need something

I think GM saved money by using the holes in the heads to mount stuff from. Less brackets, less weight, less $$. I think that happened around 68-70 and I think the short water pump went away at that point. I am going from memory and that seems to be fading faster than my hair at this point.
