PAGE 1&2 ARE DEDICATED TO BEFORE AND AFTER BODY WORK AND PAINT

Hello all this is my 68 chevelle ss It has a very rare 6 grand redline tach dash w/speed warning,tilt steering colum,vac powered doorlocks and remote mirror. The car was a factory a/c car. I have installed a vintage air setup in it and upgraded the electical with 105 amp alt. and installed windstar fans. Have upgraded the suspension all new.Also front disc upgrade. The rear end has the original 3:31 gears posi all rebuilt. All new interior.The body still needs attention am hoping to start on it this winter.

I am up dating and showing the pics of the car when i first bought it in Georgia. This was just a body with part of an engine and trans and rearend. I paid $2,000 for it back in 96.
The pics are at the bottom of the page couldn't get them to stay at the top.
