Thanks guys, great ideas here. I'll post pics of the repair (only if I'm successful!). Appreciate the safety warning Pete! Just like the model airplane glue, right?

Steve, this is a 427 car - I will send you that info.

Hey Tony...I keep forgetting to ask you this as I've tossed it out before to no responses...are there any existing Scuncio V8 Vegas known?.

Haha...the old airplane glue!. The smell of the stuff still reminds me of Saturday mornings when my buddy and I would work on our model cars together.. An hour or so with a tube of Testors' glue and we'd be acting crazy and laughing like fools...all just in time to tune in the Monkees on TV!.

~ Pete

Ken, I will check that out, thanks!

Pete, I honestly have never seen a real Scuncio Vega (doesn't that sound like some '70s Superfly name). I would think they'd be tough to document unless there was dealership paperwork to go along with it. One guy found a bunch of Scuncio invoices - saw a post on detroithorsepower.com and camaros.net - maybe a good time for us to start scoutin' for those cars!

Thanks Tony, could you also get me the engine numbers? I keep track of them as well. BTW, a friend of mine did the same type of repair to a 68 bench seat boot (same as 69). It came out really good. If you want to talk to him about what he did I can get you his number.
