Beat me to the exact word I formed in my head when I saw it, Tim - awesome. Hard to conceive the amount of effort not just in compiling the info, but doing the work -

Regards,
Steve

Can’t begin to tell you the hours that went into putting the TOC together. Chick deserves all the credit for kicking this project off. We spent more than a few hours on the telephone and exchanging text messages to get it right. Great document which will hopefully act as a good reference source for our hobby and colleagues.

Bob passed away this past year and he was a great friend for the time we knew each other. RIP my friend.....

Also, I recently received the 2020 AACA National Award for Factory High Performance Car of the Year. Thanks to CRG for the information shared and assistance from all members over the years. And special thanks to JohnZ for how he has assisted me personally and the hobby.

Amazing reward for an amazing car.  My condolences to the loss of a good friend.  It’s never easy but the good memories are what keep us that are still on this side of ground going.

Greatly appreciate the excellent resto details Chick has provided.

Any pix of the original bolts used to secure Trans. Crossmember to the Subframe?
Head style and markings?

Thanks again.

Just wanted to say thank you very much to Chick, others, and of course, CRG, for sharing/hosting this invaluable information.
Even though I'm restoring a '68 Firebird (1 of 1, Starlight Black Ram Air 4spd conv.), there are many details that still apply.
