    Thanks. They are in the same place as the originals, all I did was made new buckets and frenched them in about an inch. They look like they came on there.

    [​IMG]I've had this Impala since '79. Had several different engines in it over the years, currently a 350/4 speed. Astro's, black tuck 'n roll interior. I cant figure how to make the pic bigger, photobucket only gives me two choices and this is the biggest.

    the last shots I have, I first saw this car in mooneyes show coverage from japan, parked behind "rodriguez". took a while to find more shots of it, mostly from japan show coverage.
    I found a build post on it once, but was not able to read it or save the photos:(

    Here's mine as we loaded on the trailer back in 1994. It was COMPLETE minus the generator. Once I paid the guy and got the keys, I found THREE generators in the trunk, LOL. Got home, looked at the ***le and the person the car was ***led to was one of my mom's best friends! I called her up, verified it was really her, and she made me promise that she'd get the first ride in it when it was on the road.

    Has been stored ever since I picked it up. One day I'll get to it!

    A parts car? Looks better than the one I'm going to build!

    Does that Elky have a T-bird hood scoop grafted on? Pretty cool.

    Good eye, the owner and I were picking up some pieces for my projects and came across the hood in a small yard (now mostly crushed) in Frannie Wyoming.... 20 bucks and some bodywork later.
