I agree^^^, but did you notice the vibrations on the instrument panel, sorta felt like that in the back too!

We don't saycabelas too loud around our boys because their pupils dilate and they start pacing like caged animals.If I plan on spending any quality time at the parts yard, I can't mention the "C" word. If I lived closer, I guess I could satisfy their fix, but they only get there a couple times a year.

msgross · 03-23-2010, 08:23 AM

drop them off with $20 and hit the yard for a few hours!

Is this the Cabela's in Hamburg? That's actually the only Cabela's store that I've been to and it was nice. We have Bass Pro Shop's down here and they don't compare to Cabela's, especially if all of Cabela's store are anything like the Hamburg location.

msgross · 03-23-2010, 01:14 PM

yep, near Hamburg... we have a Bass pro shops as well... but that cabela's is like a museum...

CARZ1968 · 03-23-2010, 06:49 PM

Drop them off?! I'd come back to find one spear fishing in the big freshwater tank and the other in a ghillie suit among the trophy bucks!

Oh,btw... 28 days to Carlisle!

msgross · 04-05-2010, 06:44 PM

EBAY SCORE!!!! $99 for the new covers...

I was planning on black but couldn't pass up this deal...

PUI metallic green buddy bucket seat covers, $50 for the visors... Hard to catch the color

VA72C10 · 04-05-2010, 09:10 PM

Great deal!!!

sourkraut · 04-05-2010, 09:18 PM

nice!

sdailey · 04-06-2010, 08:12 AM

Nice score on the covers. I like that color as well.

CARZ1968 · 04-06-2010, 03:19 PM

My first 70 Chevelle was dark green on dark green.Very close if not the same as yours. It worked nicely!

They'll still work with black carpet and dashpad.

that's good news...

right now I plan black vinyl floor, black wheel/column, black door panels/armrest and black dash pad... green seat and visors

CARZ1968 · 04-06-2010, 09:54 PM

With the rest of the metal inside painted green, that interior should rock!

All black with green accents would be cool too!

thanks... maybe we'll actually see some action with this build... I'm almost done with my "nesting" stage

I really need to decide on a wiring harness, a body shop and some fuel lines...

Really enjoying your build. I've always liked the look of the 68 grill. Wanted to show you a photo that came to mind after I viewed your exploratory surgery on your side vent. Name: IMG_0520.JPG

I know, but between the office job, the flying job, the student job and the family job I really don't have much free time right now. I just moved to a new unit at work so i'm buried trying to tackle that project as well. I have been collecting parts though! Just received an NOS headlight bezel except I can't use it, the seller still had this thick protective coating on it and it won't come off... He's going to refund my money so i'll try again...

sourkraut · 05-06-2010, 09:39 PM

what all do you have to do on your cab yet? you should be getting pretty close to finished, no? I thought I was wrapping mine up and had to look under the drip rails and low and behold rust. so got to clean them up now!

msgross · 05-06-2010, 10:00 PM

I need to finish the driver rocker, pass corner and rocker and B pillar. Then the vent area then then then... it's a long list!

CARZ1968 · 05-07-2010, 12:28 AM

Did you make it to spring carlisle? I went Wed and scored some needed electrical for the burb.

I need to get a list of members that have spaces there, so I can put some faces to the posts.
