Re: 1969 Chevelle L78 Monaco Orange
The interior is in. Now the plan is to build the motor over the winter and put the rest of it back together in the spring.

Rick, that Chevelle is one of Rip's (TLC Restorations) customer's car. I guess it's a BB, 4-Speed, A/C car. Kurt |
Re: 1969 Chevelle L78 Monaco Orange

Re: 1969 Chevelle L78 Monaco Orange

Re: 1969 Chevelle L78 Monaco Orange
Thanks for all the compliments guys. Jerry doesn't have a computer but between Rip, Boomer and myself we get keep him informed on the reactions/suggestions from the 'net.
I personally enjoy posting pics and getting the updates out when I can. So I'll do my best to keep'em coming. Kurt [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] |
Re: 1969 Chevelle L78 Monaco Orange
Boomer just sent this picture to me. He said Jerry pulled this piece of paper out of his pocket. It's the cam specs to one of the camshafts he had in his Chevelle years ago. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img]

Re: 1969 Chevelle L78 Monaco Orange
that seems like it would be a nice healthy cam [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Re: 1969 Chevelle L78 Monaco Orange
Jerry's car needed a little attention to the paint so Boomer buffed on it all afternoon yesterday. Here are a couple of pictures.
On a side note, if anyone wants to see it in it's current condition, Rip with TLC Restorations will have it on display at the Jefferson Swap Meet this weekend. Kurt http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/n.../P10708021.jpg http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/n.../P10708031.jpg |

I'm not sure....I'll try to find out. I heard a rumor that the motor is already in the car and Rip is getting the front clip on this weekend. I believe they are trying to get it ready to show it next weekend but I'm not sure where. Kurt |
