Newbie introduction

Hello everyone, my name is Tay and my car goes by Cleatus, we are from NE Kansas. We are new here, I love my Cleatus to death so please be nice to us. I am preparing to have his 350 rebuilt and then send him to shop to get rid of the wood grain and trim and go all brown (as current- only metallic) as well as new weather stripping. Cleatus is my daily driver and has been for last 4 years.

Welcome Tay and Cleatus.

I removed the wood grain from my Vista too. I like the cleaner look.

No problem there. This ain't a Camaro site. We love our cars and we'll help you with any problems you may get into.

Welcome, don't see to many built like Cleatus.. More pics when you get the chance.
Cragar SS wheels would kick it.

Actually those particular wheels came on an 86 Monte Carlo but I understand they came on the Z28 too... I'm not really a fan of either but I haven't gotten around to changing the rims yet but when I do I will probably try to find something with spokes like these hubcaps if I can.
