Wanted: Hood and trunk lid for 70-72
Permalink  
 

Now that I went and got rid of mine I need one for my old Chevelle I sold to a guy who is going to make it in to a circle track car in a couple years. He was inspired after he saw my new Chevelle and thought it would be a cool idea. Dome or not and in most any condition should be fine.

On a circle car, it's still gonna get wrinkled. I may have a trunk lid. I need to see how rusty the original lid is on my '70 before I give up on it.

It sounds like they do some very interesting things to the car including panels and completely redoing the rear half of the car.

OK, the lid on my car has a lot of surface rust that will be difficult to make smooth enough for a good paint job. I did buy a very clean replacement several years ago, so he can have the original. That will force me to put the new one on the car and have 1 less part laying around...nana

 So why cant he just make one then? Its not that complicated to bend up a lid for it.

Don't quote me now but the panels go over the existing fender, door and rear quarters which is why (I think) my car was OK to use.

HUH ?? I thought you were having surgery today. I can arrange a time to be home but I am working like a mad dog trying to fit 2 weeks of Township work into 4 days before my surgery next Tuesday.

If you aren't planning to be at the November meeting, you could bring the header mufflers here and I will get them to Chris at the meeting.

Saturday afternoon would've been good for me but I guess Sunday afternoon will work. The later, the better, as I have mowing to do in the daylight.

I should've tried my other lid on years ago. It was bent from an impact and fit terribly. I had to stand on the left side to bend the frame down enough to close it...banghead It will take a bit more "fitting" to get it right.
