Washed her on Friday ND took her to my first car show on Saturday, the 442 is my friend's, felt a bit out of place, whole thing was between 200-300 cars and mostly classics, felt like every 3rd car was a Chevelle, firebird, or a 1st Gen Camaro, still had fun and talked to some great people, even won some screwdrivers in a raffle.

I really enjoy looking at your car. It's full of character and things that make it unique to you. Kudos to you sir.

Thank you, I'm not always completely sure on all the small changes I make here and there but good to know I'm on the right track.

Ordered a Heritage grill for it after some waffling on my part. Color matching the paint too.
Sooo can't wait now that I pulled the trigger.

The headlight covers are next on the list.

Looks like a great time. Your car looks great and represented the new gen of muscle well. That 69/70 C10 is bad ass. Then again I’m biased, I’ve got a couple of 67-72’s.

Rear seat delete is from Shrader Performance. I had to do some cutting of the bottom board for my harness would fit correctly.

How is the seat back retained? Just the 2 bolts on the bottom?

In my case it’s 4 bolts because of the harness bar.

FINALLY installed my separate clutch reservoir, Wilwood 4 oz. I've had the parts and I've just been putting this off for far too long.

It’s a shame no one makes a rear seat delete for the convertible. I’m going to have to fabricate something.

I recall seeing one for the hardtop a couple years ago. I almost bought it.

I got my car back from the body shop. They fixed the little dent/scratch I put in the rear quarter panel when I backed into my pressure washer because I wasn't paying attention.
