Default Re: NEW Guy here, saying hello. 68 GTO / 65 Chev Van

Thanks for the warm welcome guys.

Kurt is actually my wifes cousin, So I have to kind of claim him..... We DO love him though. (The stories I could tell.....)

On the GTO I forgot to mention - It is an AZ car, I have the build sheet, and the car is fully documented. The original owner is still alive, and I talk with him occasionally. He special ordered the power bench seat as he has Muscular Dystrophy, and is in a wheel chair. He could not get in and out of a Bucket Seat car, and had no leg strength to move a manual seat.

Anything on the car, that is NOT correct (Such as the mirrors for example) were changes done by him back in the day, and I left.

The car sat for aprox 12 years before I purchased it, as he can no longer drive due to his health.

The Van get LOTS of attention around my town here, and is probably the single best advertising I have done for my shop. I drive it Almost everyday in the summer, and even take it to an occasional local show.
