Been a busy summer for the car and myself. I have to admit I went to alot of shows for the first time( really to many). It was the first summer I have been home in almost 37 years since I switch jobs in January. Car seemed to be well recieved at shows and had a lot of fun talking with other car owners and looking at some really nice rides. I plan to scale back next year on the shows and just enjoy the car

It looks like you and the Chevelle showed well .I have grown tired of a lot of the car shows and like cruise in type shows better with the exception of The Northern Ohio Chevelle Show ,it is still a good time .

Make it better than new, but retain most of the originality.

Sittin down here about to start my work. Looking at the chev projects at hand spread out. Looking forward to the cold setting in so I can get to them. I was looking under the car after what shadowgrey said. OMG it is dusty cob webs. Needs cleaned bad before I mask it off and under coat it. I just going to the gas pedal area so it is pretty under the hood still.

Still waiting on the radio parts to see if I can manage to do that with out toasting another one. LOL Once the radio is in I will put a battery in and test all the exsisting electrical. I got to run a light wire from the dome to the console still. I got 3 sets of ceiling bows I got to go through them and see if I got a complete set. Anything could have happened in 13 years. I know i got all the outside flat peices still those are easy to count and check.

So nothing photo worthy going on but I still plugging away in my spare time after my real work.

I been cleaning the light housings and polishing lenses for the back up lights and licence plate light. Bought new bulbs tested them. They ready to go in now. My connectors for the stereo came. So I be playing with that a while seeing if I can get that to work. I about to buy a battery to check the electrical.

I can't lie I want to sit in it and listen to the stereo and see the dash lights on. I got to adjust the headlights and what not. Make sure the turn signals work. Get the amp gauge going. Just lots of unmemorable things that just need to be done.

Anyhow that the latest. I going to undercoat and get the trunk cleaned and repainted for the 10th time it seems like. Body work sure messes things you thought were done up. get the trunk wiring finalized and in place. I need to get the trunk and floor plugs.

You know how it goes never ending project.
