Just recieved my new front marker lights and Chevelle SS fender emblems.
Tonight I am pricing out bed wood and stainless bed strips/bolts.

Still need to decide on what to do for tail lights and still need to order
a front bed panel and roll pan.

Lots of money going out.

My brother brought the 74 by for some work today, he thought the alternator went out, turned out to be the block to firewall ground strap let go, easy fix and I got to drive her around for a while.

Pretty much just standing around swearing at it.

I know this is an old thread, but THAT is an awesome answer! (I was going to use it myself.)

But seriously, I lubed all the keyed locks with some powdered graphite. And forgot to buy a new dome light bulb. Again.

Was up till about 3:00 AM installing new front axles, brake pads, upper and lower ball joints, and a new drivers side front center bolt!

Pulled off the hood, the cowl. Cleaned all that out. Pulled all the emissions and the wipper motor out. Got rid of the cruise control. Getting ready to clean up the engine bay and paint it before my swap.
