Was going to change the grill but the paint shop needs to paint it first... oh well, good intentions.

I did manage to change one thing for you guys.

Yep Thats correct for 69, also beautiful broach marks and raised/worn areas around the impressions. Looks like the broacher had freash cuters when this went through!!!

Re: My '69 Z28 Find
 

Spent some time installing little items... got a new blinker light socket, license plate bracket, and got some of the interior back together. Just sorting out the issues.

I have never installed traction bars before. They go in easy! Ran out of time before evening plans to install the driver's side and with a few adjustments yet to be made, we'll be all dialed in.

Done for the weekend... almost finished with the interior. Traction bars went in easy and the rear of the car is firm - major difference!
