      DONE! 68 Chevelle Convertible

      Back home and going to get the full detail... then a good set of pics.

      Nor for the fun part... pile in the family and cruise. 502 / 5 speed combo is a blast, and my 2 year old yells at me to go fast about every 5 seconds.

      (getting a fuel cell this weekend)

      NICE, we would all like more pics here :o)

      I'm leaning towards black for my coupe as well.

      do you mind posting tire dimensions and measure from the top of the wheelwells to the ground for me?

      thanks
      Have Fun!
