Just got back from dropping off the wheel lip molding from the shop... it's BEAUTIFUL!!! He says it'll probably be ready for pickup on Thursday.

Re: Chevelle paint & body
It's done and home!! It looks GREAT, I'm super happy with how it turned out!!
Two things need addressed yet -- my grill kit apparently shipped two left's for the end-of-grill trim (didn't know they were side specific), and a couple rubber bumpers for the trunk lid. A new right-side set of grill trim and rubber bumpers are on order.
I also need to get all the vacuum actuator stuff for the cowl induction flapper installed/configured to work as it should.
New items installed: Cowl hood, hood hinges/springs, hood pins, black grill w/stainless trim, new headlight trim, new LF fender extension, door handles, door pins/bushings, all weatherstripping, all window felts, passenger door mirror, front+rear bumpers. That's all I can think of for now.
I almost forgot just how nice it drives, too. Pure pleasure!!

Dude. That looks sick. I take back changing the wheels, they look really awesome with all the chrome on there. Enjoy it, it's been a long time coming. So awesome!
