Why no traffic on this site?

Yes very rude and disrespectful. There are a some good people there, but they are out numbered. I can't believe how many negative comments people get when they post or talk about their car. Here I have not seen any negativity and everyone seems supportive.
My cars not perfect never was never will, but I enjoy it and appreciate any one who has the same interests in this hobby.

I agree it is your car do what you want. If you like a chevelle enough to deal with its age. And work with it. Then your all aces in my book. The mere fact you are doing it make you a kindred spirit to me.

I spent hours washing waxed mine. Moisturized the top. Detailed the dash. Did in the doorjambs and trunk under the hood. And it just sits there waiting for me to get money to finish it. I love my car I never get to drive it. Only way anyone ever sees it is to come over.

I just like looking at it. One day it will be done.

This place is a refreshing oasis of tolerance for doing what you want to do with them. Not make it my way so I can rob you buying it and sell it and make a fortune off of it. Which when you get to the root of things. That is all they are doing on the other site scamming.

It isn't about the cars or the people involved. It is only about how much money they can make playing their games.

What all do you have left to do? Do you need any parts? I may have something laying around that you could use.

I appreciate the offer.

I need things I got to buy. Interior and either rebuild this 454 I got or buy a crate one. I got belt drives both big and small block alt and starters everything just about except one thing.

A drive shaft. Just the shaft would do. I got yokes.

But other than motor and interior from the dash back. Dash as you know is finished. It is basically done. I got the rear seat frame. It has the buckets in it. They are not horrible but I am going to recover them.

Like I said I am in hobbyshop prison since my wife went to college. I got one more semester and after that she be working. It will get done fairly quickly after that.

I do got a almost perfect complete set of 68 chrome left over tho. Heater core and a under the hood air unit to a 69 year I think but it is close. I bought it for mine. But got the el camino parts car and it had one. new 68 antenna but i went with the in windshield 69 type.

She does look sweet to me down there tho. Freshly waxed. I can say it is exactly what I always wanted. Colors stripes stereo all options I always dreamed of. Power everything and air. You know chevelles were always basically optionless if they were performance oriented. Which was why I sold the SS and kept the malibu parts car in the first place.

It was my dream car. I purposely picked options and chrome from any years I pleased. Just tried to make it look like it could have been a factory set up.

I been oggling her. Like a high school date when she says she got to go home while petting. So close yet so far LOL.

I am restoring that boat I got now to. Needed stringers and transom. So I am keeping busy. I am grinding out the hull at the moment. That will keep me busy till school lets out.

Once you get used to doing this stuff it is hard and boring not having some project going on all the time.

Couple pics of her. She she isn't being neglected. Gets cleaned more than any other car that never moves LOL.

Chevymaher, that is one beautiful 68. I've had only a few chevelles and love my 69, but there is no better looking rear of a car than a 68. I love the taillights on a 68, aluminum grill, 68/69 ss hood. Get that baby done and enjoy it.

I agree that is one pretty car, wish it was sitting in my garage. You do nice work.

Thank you.

[flash]

yellow69 ,do I know you ,I go to the Northern Ohio Chevelle Show every year ,do you belong to that club ?

[yellow69]

Flash,
Don't believe so, I live south of Columbus, Ohio. I haven't been to the Chevelle show nor am I a member, but heard that's a great group of people and they have a good show. I used to be a member of the Central Ohio Chevelle owners, but that club has disappeared. I hope to make it sometime to the Chevelle show, but don't know if and when. Maybe this year I can pop in for a day.
