I came up with it, All by myself

What do you think, Pretty creative huh.

OK Rick, I guess if you come all the way to GA, I'll give you a ride.

you manage to do very well at these meets, that support looks mint, nice score, all the snows melting here so unless it starts snowing or get cold again, I may start back on mine, I have some catching up to do

Not exactly what I had in mind, But thanks.
tantrumpipeline and me were pretty much neck and neck on our builds.
It was helping to push me, Or should I say "kick me in the a$$" on mine.

Looks like some good finds. Hate I missed it, but would have been a long drive for me with bad weather. Wonder what tomorrow would be like? Usually sunday is kind of slow and with this bad weather some might have left early.

I like the lights as well, You can just get one piece at a time.

I love the stuff I got, But some venders were gone. Or had there goods covered.
Tomorrow is supposed to be a better day.(weather wise)

67chevy1series · 02-05-2011, 10:45 PM

VA72C10 · 02-05-2011, 11:00 PM

I was happy with what I got, But was surprised with some of
the things I couldn't find. Thank goodness for the internet.

67chevy1series · 02-06-2011, 11:43 PM

i am guessing no bow tie in the grille and the little inserts that are rivited in the grille and hen that means no parking lights in the grille hence them being in the headlights.....

spike38 · 02-07-2011, 12:27 AM

I photoshopped and antiqued this picture to get the look I'm going for.
I'm still not 100% on a color, But this is my latest thoughts

Spike

67chevy1series · 02-07-2011, 12:29 AM

yep that is what i pictured!

don't so it! it's awful! and most of all I can't afford to make mine that nice!

tantrumpipeline · 02-08-2011, 12:24 AM

that's nicer for sure, one day I want a 67 with the chrome 20in corvette rallies, all original trim, big block, small window, in a super high gloss black, one can dream

spike38 · 02-08-2011, 01:58 AM

Tonight, I finished my tranny.
I started out with new clutches, Steels,
Seals, And gaskets.

Then I added a shift kit, Modified the baseplate,
Reworked the vales, New sprigs, And modified the
torque converter plate.

Gave it a fresh coat of paint, And added some billet goodies.

It was a long day!

Spike

VA72C10 · 02-08-2011, 01:59 AM

very nice! That looks great and should perform even better! Where did you get the pan and flywheel cover from? Skip white or somewhere else?

67chevy1series · 02-08-2011, 02:01 AM

looks great!!!

Thanks Rick, I think it took as long to clean the pig,
As it took to rebuild it.
