I vote against the wrap; I love your car just as it sits.

Hell ya, wrap it. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

It's temporary unless there is damage to
occur during wrap removal.... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

I vote wrap it. Of course that's just me spending your money!

Speaking of stance, Roy, you need to post a pic or two of some of the killer Corvettes at your place.

And... since I asked you to do it, no one can complain that it is a shameless plug.

L60x15 Mickey Thompson on 8&quot; Cragars. E78x15 Goodyears bias on original 4.5&quot; Cragars. Fronts fit real nice and fill the wheel well.

The '66 SS396 that Stefano has for sale has its original, born-with springs and thus a killer original stance:

That Chevelle's look is perfect. No Viagra needed for the next 4 hours.

Stance you say

Chevelle as it sits now, with the top pic to show the wheel centers and other stance

https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...velle_200s.jpg
5 or 6 years ago, prior to suspension mods and change to 18 &quot; wheels. In this pic it has 15 X 7 and 15 X 8.5&quot; 200S wheels with centers I machined and 235-60's BFG's and 29-12.50-15 Hoosier Pro Street Radials.
I feel wheel choice and stance are pretty much the most important factors in modifying a car.

This is my buddies Car we took a pic at a local abandoned machine works. The 15's &amp; redlines really et off the Dusk &amp; the buried black side body stripe.

That's with the Moroso Drag Springs in the back. Have since put the stock springs back in as I didn't care for how it sat cockeyed.

Bought the car just as it sits 22 years ago. Will get around to correcting the stripes one of these days.

Dusk Blue is so nice on a '69 Chevelle. Great photography, thanks for sharing.

The grille is argent silver,just the angle of the picture.

As usual you type before you think Dicky.....the grill is argent silver just the way a 69 Z28 is supposed to be.

My ideal stance..very aggressive looking....though would look even better with L60's or N50's on the rear with 15 x 8.5 or 15 x 10 slots

I love the look the 15x8 rally wheels have. So much every vehicle I have has got a set. Looking great on the back of that 69! &amp;#128077;

Marty,my L34 Nova is mostly a all original paint car and no rust anywhere.I don't think it saw any winter driving being a Wisconsin car,very clean underneath.Still retains it's original driveline,but was street raced back in the day.It was even pin striped taped back then,and pretty heavy too. When the light shines on it at a certain angle,you can still see the outlines everywhere.

hey whitetop. The cortez silver z28 looks cool without the stripes. I like it !

Hi Mark - how about some more pictures - including the Z-28, both look to be really original cars.

Thank you very much. Great looking car. Really looks good in that color, stance, wheel and tire combo. I know this is not the appropriate thread, but would love to see some more photos.
Thanks again,
Marty
