Putting my Chevelle back together
Permalink  
 

I just passed the one year anniversary of my car being stolen and burned as many of you know. Due to many other setbacks including prostate cancer I am just getting started on trying to put her back together. I have found a few parts already but also looking for suggestions for where you might go for these parts or if you have something for sale.

Carpet

Dash, dash pad and all heater everything under the dash

Steering column

Front seat - actually looking for black cloth seat that might bolt in or maybe go with bucket seats?

Inner fenders

front grill

Windshield

All mounting hardware and rubber anything

2 each 235/60-15" front tires, any brand as I am going RWL in so black-wall out

2 each 275/60-15" rear tires, any brand as I am going RWL in so black-wall out

I noticed the 4-row radiator is only 21" wide at the ears but the core support has mount points for it. Any issues with this radiator (found one for $100) or should I just go aluminum as they are fairly inexpensive.

Everything just needs to be driver quality as I am not that particular right now. I am kind of going a little with the rat rod look as the whole front of the car is going to be a mix of parts and colors until maybe next year when maybe I can get her painted.

Thanks guys!

Darren;

I am sorry to hear about the cancer. Good Luck!

At the Street Machine nats, I found Dillon Radiator. www.dillonradiator.com 888-988-1292. They had bargain prices on radiators that looked just like Griffin.

Too bad you were unable to go after the one in Mobridge, was a complete car.
Karl

Hope the prostate problem is fully resolved.

I'm sorry to hear about your health problem. Good luck with your car project. About the tires, I recommend Cooper Cobra GT's. These cooper tires are smooth on the highway and have better traction than BFG.
