In high school (1981 - 1984, I had a '66 Chevelle (Malibu) with a very fast 283 and an M21 4 speed, and before that I had a '69 Chevelle SS396. They were both great cars. Perfect bodies, great interiors, and sound mechanically. I managed to pretty much butcher both of them, and I loved every minute. I really thought I knew what I was doing. I would give my left nut to have either of those cars again, the way they were when I first got them. I can't believe what I let fall through my hands, but I was just a kid. The Super Sport was only 11 years old when I bought it! If I knew then what I know now, the two sweetest Chevelles in California would be in my garage.

You and your friend are truly blessed. I'm not religious, but blessed really feels like the most appropriate word. Do it right this time, and enjoy every minute of it! Remember, it doesn't have to be finished by summer this time, so don't install any parts that are anything other than perfect. Wait until you get the parts you want. Take your time. I'm jealous as hell, but very happy for you!

Take care
~Chris
