Tire Calculator

I was talking to Dave Leonard yesterday as our neighborhood power lines were on fire, and we were admiring his son Tommy's color sanding job on his Chevelle. I had a great tire size calculator, but I can't seem to put my fingers on it now. I did find this one here, http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html, that isn't too bad.

I haven't had a chance to install the front seat, definitely this weekend. Busy watching Barrett Jackson Las Vegas tonight! I also posted a new video on YouTube about the Chevelle...

Almost done

I am almost done with the assembly of the interior. The sound deadener and carpet went in smoothly, and the door panels and headliner match up nicely. The back seat and seat belts are in, and although I am leaving the front and rear seats green for now, I intend to recover them with new black covers later.

Sarah wants to keep the grille silver, and now that the bumper is on, I think I agree. One more kick panel, the front seats and belts, and that's it! I'm amazed that I no longer have a giant pile of parts in the garage....which really feels good

Too busy to blog

I don't know how these kids do this....blogging, twittering, etc. I barely have enough time to work, eat and sleep.....and try to squeeze a few minutes in on the Chevelle. That's why I have not blogged in a while. I did go to the swap meet at Old Bridge Township Raceway Park, and get most of the parts I needed to finish the car last week. I picked up sound deadener, carpet, a grille, trim pieces and screws.

The dash has been painted and installed, and I'm ready to paint the door panels and install them too. Weatherstripping and glass are all installed, and one more check for leaks, and I'll put the carpet in.
