That pic is from my VB garage. For the life of me I can't even remember where I got it. I do know there were no more pics or information where I found it. Sorry! FRANK :guilty:

He lives around the Charlotte area. One of my State Farm agent friends has it insured. He had a 69 that he sold to Dale Jr. and Dream Car Garage did a story of him(Dale Jr) driving it around Mooresville, Nc.

If he's driving, I'd still spank it with my Caddy, just like I did Dale Jr's car.

J.T....I'm guessing they're just stock headlights, they look stock. Unless they're the 'Bright Driver' headlights (http://www.detroitspeed.com/Headlights10.html) from Detroit Speed.

I went to your web site. Nice work! You are certainly helping others writing about your own experiences. I enjoyed reading about the history of the car as I have had mind for over thirty years. I'm from Metro Detroit myself. Born and raised in St. Clair Shores, MI. I have been through simular situations, referring to the cars being beat to death in MI winters. I bought all NOS parts back in they day and said screw it. Replace the whole thing. The only part of the body I didn't replace was the roof. These cars are hugh projects. I have been working on mind on and off for over 10 years. Keep the faith, someday it will all work out.

Forgeline Wheels

I'm looking at these now - They are about 1500 less than the same style wheels/sizes from HRE.
