Sounds like you are have some big fun. Finding the build sheet is always a plus when doing this. I never found mine so I guess someone else found it before me.

CFL 34, is that a particular player?

I just pulled the body off of my 73 as well.  What are you planning on doing with the frame?  Iwas planning on sending it out to be sandblasted and then painting it or powdercoating it.  Do you have any ideas about sealing inside the frame rails?

Vette(s): 1977 L-82 originally white/buckskin interior. Currently undergoing a frame-off resto. and modifications.YEEHAW!!!

Ben, thanks for the props on your site.  Respect back at you.

The Steeroids looks sweet on your frame. I love looking at his frame pics. I'm hoping mine will be done within the next few months, but, alas, I'm waiting on an idiot that made an empty promise also.

Alan
