I do. The truck is coming out soon as I am in the middle of the build on the frame for it. The '63 Nova is next. I already have the IFS(subframe) and IRS for it along with an LS.

Re: medium green paint code 518

I always found this a little confusing. The 72 brochure lists it as MEADOW Green, not Medium Green, but a DuPont chart I have lists it as Med. Green (abbreviated). Not sure how to correctly abbreviate Meadow...or did Chevy call it Meadow and DuPont call it Medium?
