Re: 1966 Chevelle Build

It's always hard to tell a true color in a pic but it looks great to me .

I checked out the Viper blue, I liked it but my wife didn't. Since I building it for her she has the final say.

Re: 1966 Chevelle Build

So after a few more days going over different blues she decided to go with Arrival blue, the same color my 2004 Silverado was.

I wish it was in my garage so I could just stare at it, but for now all I can do is look at this picture.

Re: 1966 Chevelle Build

New lower fender patch panels are on now. Also the inner front fender wells (still to be painted blue) are in to check for clearance with all of the air out of the bag. It's a perfect fit!

Re: 1966 Chevelle Build

That thing is really turning out nice, but I would expect nothing less from your builds. Looks like it is going to be a great car once it gets done.

Thanks Bernie! I'm really wanting to get it back from the paint guy so I can continue with the build. Your Dad's truck is really coming a long nicely, nice color too.

Re: 1966 Chevelle Build

A little late to the party, but I'm subbing to see this one finished. The air ride stuff made this car! Your aired out stance is going to be beautiful.

Thanks Chad! Your right on the bags, it gives in the right stance when parked and when it's time to drive push the button and to get it to ride height and I'll be ready to go. I did bags on my truck and to me that's the way to go.
