Randy's Rag

[Ms Grumpy]

Randy I think that the name "Randys Rag" is cool. I wish that mine had been that solid when I started. You will always have someone who is willing to tell you what you need, what is missing, and what would look good. I guess it would depend on the look you are going for. Do you want to bring it back to original or do you want to finish it with the things you would like in your classic ? Me, I did what I wanted because the cost of trying to go as close to original would have been into the 100K, and my checkbook is nowhere near that.

Since you are in Kentucky I would make the trip up to Strongsville, Ohio for the NOCC show in August. Besides the fact that it is a Chevelle show, you would see so many cars. Some are original, restorations, customs and everything in between. Maybe it would give you some ideas and maybe some contacts to get any parts that you are missing. And if you went you would meet many of the people on this board and have a blast cause the show is so much fun. Just my 2 cents.

I appreciate the invite. I will look into it. But I got a kid and we both work. Wife is in college. It a 7 day a week deal. So we don't have any days off.

It was pretty rough when I got her. Look in my album. There one pic of the back window area that tells the tale. That is why it took so long. I had years of metalwork. Welding in metal. I re did the frame, rear and front end. Modified things. It is a SS Malibu clone and will never be sold so I am not hurting its value. Like I said if I had not taken it with the SS it was going to be crushed the next day.

It was a blue car the color that turns green as it fades. With white and black interior. Power steering with air car. 307 2 speed powerglide.
No I not going original it will be a SS clone. Power steering brakes, I got the booster already, air conditioned car.
04 impulse blue with black stripes. SS lower blackout. Black vynal top. I already studded it. Black interior. Interior SS emblems will be 69 just because i like the look better. I have the roll tach cluster I kept from the SS.
My avitar is a photoshopped redition of what i want it to be.

Drive train is a 454 4 bolt block. Still to be built laying in the garage. I going to port a set of Pro Comp heads, roller cam. 496 it. I got a 11 inch clutch.
I rebuilt a 68 muncie, I got hurst shifter. Rear end is rebuilt with a Pro seiries posi 3.73 gears. All richmond and eaton parts.
I got alot of money sunk in her already despite the way it looks.
