New Hinshaws Chevelle catalog
(Preview)
I've been pestering James for a catalog for a year. He finally had a new batch printed and sent one out. I've already ordered a day/night mirror, washer pump w/cam and correct shifter hump.

Questions for the purists?
(Preview)
The underside of a domed 1972 hood. I am assuming that all the hoods were painted black. Do restoration suppliers have the correct paint available? The insulation that is on the hood, Was that a standard feature or an option? Is that material also available? Especially in kit form.

This guy took a trip to Havana and took lots of pics on his trip. Most are GM 4 doors. Many repowered with chinese and russian tractor part...
