Wmachine-hey man, thanks for the GM link. I'll get on that before they shut anything else down. I'm going to try and post some pics here.

Welcome to the site!
Smooth looking car! Black is nice but any bodywork needs to be good! I've got a 1969 project car that was black from the factory. I've been hesitant to go with that as it does need some bodywork. But seeing pictures of yours I may need to think a little harder about that decision! Can you share some pics of the interior? John

Beautiful. Get some trumpets on the tailpipes if you don't mind me saying. I think year one has 'em. Have fun!

Thanks guys, really appreciating the compliments.

Yellow-the wheels are in pretty good shape, we're still going to have them rechromed though any recomendations on how to find that knows what the hell their doing?

Z- She's scheduled to have the tailpipes put on in about an hour and by this evening, she'll have her stripes back on.

Thanks John! I spent last weekend decoding the data plate the only thing I really couldn't figure out wasthe actual production date (the code was like 953) but there needed to be a letter or a two digit code, and I couldn't find one (is that because it was Canadian built?)

I'd be happy to get some pictures up of her interior, that's her rough spot though and our main focus. I'll try to post those tomorrow (got honey do's to get done)Does anyone know if the original shifter knobs were the Hurst handle grip type of just a straight black ball?

Smile Get a grip

It's a straight black ball for the shifter with no shift pattern (PN 395796) if you have a console; about the wheels, check the price of new Magnum 500's versus the price of re-chrome... P.S. I suspect your license plate is a fire hazard..;-) ;-)
