Darren - thank you. I am a student of the Xplantdad School of Photography (Phoenix Campus). My photo shoot was in a Pecan Grove near my home and I used an SLR with real live film, but had it developed to digital CD images. I found the colors to be much richer.

Sam,
Thanks for that tip. I had considered pulling the 35 SLR out of hibernation a couple of times and doing exactly what you described. Now I'm convinced. Just more stuff to pack around at SCR-X!

Great shots of a Great car.

Awesome car Sam. Congratulations.

Do you know if the undercoating was factory or dealer applied?

Denis,

Not sure. I think factory, but would have to confirm. Both the Dealer Order form and Invoice indicate it and Wayne drove home with it undercoated. Will check into it.

I love that car and color combo. The pics are great. I would like to print out a few pics of it for my garage.

Unbelievable Just amazes me that someone had the foresight to save all that documentation related to the car

I heard from Wayne (original owner) the other day. Lately he's been doing some house cleaning and has come across some interesting things "belonging" to his old Chevelle. I don't have the other items just yet, but will post when they arrive. The below item, of course, is the warranty pamphlet for the Chevelle and I noticed that the selling dealership, Wickline, info was printed in the open space at the bottom. Curious if this was done locally (looks very professional) or would GM have done this for their dealers?
