The one thing I've learned in my 66 years of life is to listen. So everything that was said on the Chevelle Tech forum and everything that was said on this forum is appreciated and filed away for future reference. I did get two volunteers to look at the car for me, and that was the purpose of starting this thread so the moderators can close it if they want. I'm not done with this forum by any means as I think I will be making the trade if the car checks out without any major issues. Minor issues I can handle...biggies like rust, bondo, bad mechanicals/electrics would squelch the deal. Thanks again for all your comments, Nick

Looks like rear control arms are not original factory boxed arms. Can't tell if the F41 frame braces are there. The tail light lenses don't appear to have any silver trim, look like base Chevelle lenses, not from an SS.

Who mounted that arm rest pad on the passenger door? Looks like shit. I don't know about the mufflers but the exhaust tips are wrong. Chevelle emblem on trunk lid is crooked. Shouldn't the battery ground wire go to alt bracket on a 70? Minor, but alt has been replaced, cooling blade should be a silver/tin color, not gold. Shouldn't dash and dash pad be interior color?

I will say grandsport that both you and Ray have cars that many of us are envious of. And I would say that with cars like both of you have, you have the knowledge that goes along with them.
