How many pages before the mod locks this one up??
Anyhoo,I am doing up a 68 C body.
I have to take the time to search for NOS trim parts since there are no reproductions available.
I am using some repop that interchanges from B body,that's it.(door handles,window cranks,arm rest bases)
I am not going for gold,yet NOS is priced like gold.
I am documenting all the NOS I use,should I enter a judged show.
I am doing it mainly for myself and do not care what judges think.
In fact judges are not well versed in C bodies anyways.

When the little kids says "Nice car" or Gramps says "I had one just like it" I am a winner every time..

I always admired the high quality restorations,the efforts put into them and the owner's time and money involved entering a OE class.
It inspired me to do the best I can on my own car-and still enjoy it as hobby-even though it is just a C.
