Nice Car!!!  ;D   8)  ;D  8)  ;D  8)

Now, I see why you said yours wasn't as "stock" as mine and why the car turns heads...  ;)  ;)  ;)

Have you saved any original parts to the shelf as you went?   ???

And I gotta ask... Classic Performace... where?   ???

Send me a PM if you don't want to post it...

I'd love to see that car eyeball to headlight!

Thanks, and yes, I have kept all the original parts (my garage is pretty much full to the rafters with boxes and parts!). When I started, it was a beautifully restored #'s matching SS396, 325hp, with a full option list but I couldn't leave well enough alone and got hooked by the resto-rod/pro touring bug. It should be ready to roll again in a couple of months, just in time for spring!

Got your PM. Thanks for the info!  ...So, I've got to go all the way to Canada to see it....

Sweet!  Mine is sitting patiently waiting for its turn for sanding and then the paint booth.  You cannot tell from the pic (obviously), but my 12 year old paint job needs some work...

Phil,

Follow up on my email to you about posting your pictures...

I did go back and check the motor pic and found it is more than 128k, so if you've already tried, it probably didn't post.  You either need to reduce the pixels or take new pictures in the email setting of your digital camera.

Let me know if I can be of any further help.

Everybody --you've got to see this modified 68.  Check the site he posted above.  ;D

Pretty cool, eh?!!!

Easiest way to re-size photos is to go to the Microsoft site, Windows XP, downloads, and search for "Image Resizer"; download and install it, and any time you right-click on an image, there will be an item called "resize photos" in the drop-down menu - click on that, select the size you want, click, and you're done. Works great!

They don't have one for Vista, and don't plan on creating one. If you have Vista, go here and download the VSO Resizer - works the same way:

Wow, that car is incredible (not to mention my favorite color)!

Would definitely like to see some higher resolution pictures.
