Looks like the windshields are intact! That must have been a relief!

I am super busy right now.... basically have not touched coach in a week. Put new brakes and tires on pickup and put new wheels and tires on wife's Chevelle. Wedding this weekend, then traveling for work early next week. As soon as I get home it will be a rush to get camper ready then leave for Oshkosh for a week. If only I did not have to work for a living...

Below are B4 and after of the Chevelle with the new wheels... at least wife is happy now...

Don't tell your wife, but personally I prefer the retro look of the old wheels on her Chevelle.

We both went back and forth about the bigger American Racing Torg Thrust wheels, but the original 14" SS wheels are not in great shape and the only 245/60-14 tires available any more are BF Goodrich Radial T/A's. Local shop was going to charge us nearly $900 for 4 of them mounted and balanced, so for a few hundred more I bought this larger set all mounted and balanced w/ free shipping. I do not care for the even larger 20" wheels some guys are putting on these now, but I thought the 17"s wheels were a good compromise. We will obviously hang onto the original SS wheels, but IMO, the car looks a little spiffier now even with the old faded paint.

Pretty good video....I had found and watched it a few days ago.

I got just a bit of video from when I was there that I will edit and post on Youtube when I get some free time. I need a bunch of practice in regard to making/editing quality video. lol

I would welcome the opportunity to find out, but I will probably have to work until I can't. lol

Thanks for sharing the video. Had to chuckle when you mentioned McMaster-Carr. Best supply house ever! Usually whatever I order today by 2pm is at my door tomorrow and they have EVERYTHING.
