Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
What color are you going with?
One shop last year quoted $10,000 to paint my Nova. The example car he showed me was a non metallic yellow Mopar. All I could say was you must be kidding. Good luck Posted via Mobile Device

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
