    Hey Steve, i have been here 15 plus years and still learn something from here everyday!!!   Like Mark said if you want to acknowledge someone's response you click on the heart on the lower right.

    If you look up at the bell and there is a number there, someone else liked what you stated and it shows who when you click the bell.

    The envelope on the right side of the bell is s Private Message (PM), that will show a number also, just click on the envelope and the person that sent you the PM would be there, just click on his name and read his message. You can answer him right there and then send it back to him as a PM.

    Like i said i have been here awhile just ask away we are all here to help!!!!!

    Welcome Steve!!!!  Sorry to hear of your issues but as you know, keeping positive is definitely an advantage!!!  The cars look sweet!!  As others said it would be great to see you (if you are up to it) in Carlisle in June as it will be one of our biggest shows. As far as the computer skills, lol i have been here over 15 years and still stink at it but if i need help there are always plenty of club members who will just jump in and give me a hand!!   Thank You and keep up the positivity!!!!

    Window gap, can’t install molding for back window

    Hey Dan Welcome to the club!!!    Per that bottom pic, seams that the door is hanging, i would replace the door hinge bushings first. Then readjust the rear window stops. You have to take off the inside panel first but i think that will solve your problem. I would think the problem is just a needed adjustment.  Someone will chime in to verify but i think that's what you need.

    Brant like Dennis said, don't sell it the way it is if you don't have to.   If the original engine is long gone, just replace what's in there now. If you don't know where to find one give Jared a call maybe he can hook you up!! The car is worth way more running than not!! And don't forget, we are here for any questions if you need us????

    Might require some type of a crane/elevator system to get all the passengers loaded though.... 

    Scott that's what i was thinking!!  Even the step might be too high to get on to get in that car!!

    Willie,

    I see nothing obvious on the ‘70s Build Sheet that would lead me to believe it appeared as a “code”.  I’d ASSUME that if it did appear it might be logical to be located near the seatbelt boxes (#87 and #88). For what it’s worth, there ARE seven boxes missing on the BS, so I guess there’s always the possibility it may have populated one of those.  The picture I have for the ‘71 is garbage… so blurry it resembles hieroglyphics. I’ll have to check that another time and get back to you.

    Thanks Glen i checked mine and i didn't see anything either. So i am guessing they were in some kind of package also. We now know the rears are most likely dealer or after market items. But i was just wondering about the front console ones??

    Glen do me a solid and check your build sheet for either of the cars and see if those cups have a special code for them, as i cant find them in the codes for the Chevelle. Tkx

    First… welcome, Kevin!  It’s a great group of people here, you will have no problem getting advice as you progress through your work. 
     

    Willie,

    I’m late to the party on the cups you’re talking about. I saw the chatter about them in the other thread got distracted before I could respond.   I didn’t think anything of them as both of my cars have them.

    I purchased a new set for when I had the interior redone on the ‘70, but the shop that did the install didn’t attach them to the new console (maybe they didn’t want to drill holes into a brand new piece?).  Never inquired with the trim shop and just left the belts on the floor when not in use for now.

    Here’s a couple pics of the interior of the ‘70 as it arrived as well as a couple pictures of the cups in the ‘71. 

    When the better half rides with me I make her go seatbelt-less and I use the passenger side cups for my smokes and garage door opener 🤣😂

    Yes Glen, those are the ones i seen, minus the chrome strip on all the consoles. But what Lyle posted looks like what i seen in the pic from that Gentleman at Carlisle on the bottom of the back seat.   Tkx for the pics, cars look great!!!
