I just got back home from a 3 day weekend - Greg and I decided to start a long time coming build. Greg has owned a 1969 Daytona Yellow L78 Chevelle for 6-7 years that has been waiting its turn to be restored. This Daytona Yellow Chevelle will be very nice when complete as it lived a very good life as is evident by the condition of all the parts....very pit free and superior condition.
This L78 Chevelle is an M21 4 speed, black cloth bench seat, KK 4.10 posi, Black Vinyl Top. The engine and rear end are 100% born with original to the car.
We gathered all the necessary parts and got organized in order to be able to assemble the entire rolling chassis on my next trip down.
We occasionally sub out certain work....We had our good friend Rick Nelson rivet the upper control arm for this build. Rick it was great seeing you as always. Thanks for your friendship and great fast service.
Our local St. Louis friend Mark Johnson also stopped by for a visit....Mark hope we see you again on my next visit. Great seeing you.

Look at the axle tube condition - it`s so refreshing to have them so nice.
