Hey guys -- saw a link to this thread from the Team Chevelle forums. All I can say is "Wow." I've always been fascinated by photos like these.
Anyway, just thought I'd post some pics of my find from a couple years ago. This is a highly-optioned, triple black, 1970 Chevy Monte Carlo SS454. You can see it
was a Vigilite optioned car as well. Approximately 3800 SS's were made that year. Car was in real rough shape when I got her, with no engine or trans. The pics don't show just how bad the rust was, and it had been hit in the rear, driver's side at one point. I found 2 build sheets the first day I had her. Did a frame off restoration, dropped in a built 502, new TH-400, and lots of NOS parts. Had to quit the project for family reasons at about 90% completion, but my buddy bought the car and finished it better than I ever could have. Below are the before and after pics. Some of them do get saved!!
