            Fred, When I got home I checked and all I have left are 1967 Car, 1971 Truck tags and one 1967 for hire tags, and 1972 Cars tags. Sorry I thought I has one 1971 car tag left. I will keep looking.

                      Fred, for the love of got, leave the body ALONE!
                      That screams similar to my dad's old 68 SS clone...the wheels, the battered paint...don't care about suspension mods, update for safety but leave the exterior alone man.

                      That is a car I would deeply enjoy rocking as it sits. It has soul. A gear head karma...you can drive it, and it will reward you.

                      If I was going to do a cheby, that would be the car.
