Re: [Chevelle-list] 1965 Frame Rearend

2008-04-24 Thread Mike Holleman
I did post that awhile back. The only difference is the distance between the last two body mount positions in the rear. 3.25 inches. By shortening the frame rails 3.25 inches the elky chassis will bolt up to the Chevelle body. Mike - Original Message - From: William Piper To:

That could be a tough one. Not sure about the 69 but they they haven't repop'd them for the 70-72 yet. You may need to find a parts car or put an add in the wanted section of Chevelles.comGodspeed, Dan SolomonIt is a mistake to allow any mechanical object to realize you are in a

To my knowledge that piece is not being repoped for the 69. It is stainless and not a common piece that is removed from parts cars so you should be able to find a donor car to get it from. Trooper - Original Message - From: RJ Winkler To: 'The Chevelle Mailing List' Sent:

[Chevelle-list] To Wash or Not To Wash?

2008-04-24 Thread Walter
RJ's dilemma with needing to wash is Chevelle and the missing chrome piece, got me to thinking about this topic. I am just curious how folks are keeping their Chevelle clean. I have had mine current 72 since 2003. I do not and have never driven it in the rain, so when it came to cleaning, I

I think the boxes only matter if the parts are still insideJust my thought. But then again, there is probably somebody out there that wants boxes. I'd just toss the things. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Chevelle-list@chevelles.net Sent: Thu, 24 Apr 2008 1:01 pm

Mine was washed a few weeks ago for the first time in three years. It was so dirty after a muddy freeway drive following a rainy car show that I ran it through the all-hands carwash! Then, of course I spent some time getting the water out of the rear window bottom trim. Dennis McGillis 1965

I got one for you. I have a Accel dual point distributor with the mechanical tack that has been sitting on the shelf in the original boxes for years. I should sell it because I probably will never use it, but if I do then I can't say I have it. Pretty dumb huh? Chuck Speake 1970 Chevelle

I can relate. I also have an old Accel 37100 dual point (no tach drive though) I used in my Chevelle for about 12 years before switching over to an MSD unit when I put injection on it. Still sitting in my Delco parts cabinet with cap and wires the past 5 years. Not worth anything but can't
