congratulations on your 50th anniversary

nice photos

Congrats to all 3 of you (you, Karen, and the Chevelle)! :beers:

The repop MC/Booster I installed back in 2010 failed last year soooo, I sent out the one I removed (and tucked away in late 2009) for restoration last year. Turned out pretty good thanks to Mike at brakeboosters and, now the old Chevelle is ready to go - WAD :biggthumpup:

Your car deserved that, nice work

LOL Mike has a thing with Chinese brake boosters....

Looks great!!

Great story. I remember seeing that car for sale and thought about driving down, glad you got it.

Spring cleaning (after 11 years), gaskets, clean/clean/clean/repaint, water pump rebuild and a couple of parts updates (timing cover and dizzy) - all finished (after almost 2 months) and did a test drive yesterday:biggthumpup:

Send that waterpump to bill mock in oklahoma

First picture: still look like a kid playing in his sand box.

Roger,

Looks great! Love it :)

Your Master Cylinder should be black and your exhaust manifold bolts should NOT be ALL Flange Bolts.....just saying.

Dan

Hey Dan:

Good eye - Thanks for the heads up :biggthumpup:
If memory serves, my OEM MC was not painted but, I may redo it black or, whomever owns it after me can do it :)

I hear ya on the ex manifold bolts :)
Which ones should be non flanged?
Maybe try to find the correct ones.
How many do I need and do you have any extras :)

I should try to locate a set of “AIR” ex manifolds and plug them (Harrell’s shop removed the smog stuff and plugged them) but for now, most likely just stick with the “NA”’s :)

Hi Roger,

The Exhaust Manifold bolts....The eight outers are all Flanged.... the remaining inners are Non-Flange and No Washers.

Is your plan to ever put the smog system back on the car?

Hope to see you soon again......be safe and be well.

Dan

No plans to change any of the Harrell shop mods.
Any chance you have the non flanged ex man bolts I need :)

PS: A friend just phoned @ 3PM today - NF manifold bolts on the way :biggthumpup:

Sorry Roger, I do not have any.

I am sure there are others on here that may have them.
Post a "Wanted AD"

----Roger,,,Look up "Enoch" in the for sale area and get in touch with him for those bolts as I'm relatively sure he will have them!....Bill S

Looks great Roger - hard to believe 11 years have passed since you got it back.

I love this story on this car so much went through it twice I do have a question out of ignorance: the rear end I saw mention of the KK code which I'm familiar but is there no special "BE" like for Camaro Copo's? thanks ahead for the education

the 1969 427 COPO Chevelle used a KQ code rear with 4:10 gear

This picture update is for Postsedan AND anyone else interested in details :biggthumpup:

Roger,

Well done :) Looks Great!

Now just straighten this one valve cover retainer and your all done :)

Dan

Looks great Roger!

I love the car, and love the story!!:biggthumpup:
