Excellent, thanks Roger. I may even contact him sooner and meet him for a coffee on the other side of the city from where we usually meet. He is west of Winnipeg and we meet east side, but it's neutral for me, same drive to either coffee shop.
Maybe a CP coffee night on the other side of town in the future!
I sure appreciate your help Roger.

Its the making of a great project. I like your idea about the SD stripe. It sure makes a 69 pop. Was thinking of doing the same on my car in the future. If you do not use a stock V8 emblem you could still put 350 or what ever instead of the 396. Make it a what if car.
I played around today with the Slowmont..... looks like with some rubbing I can get the paint to shine, I'm going to see if I can get my paint buddy to mix a match for some touch up for now.
I had these Rally II's with tires mounted already , so I figured I might as well use them for now. I had the PMD caps on the shelf for the last 7 years or so....
I'll take my lumps ..or thumbs up now !!!! I have personalized my Slowmont !

I have AADD... here's my inspiration for this 69 ( Brad's car ).... no SD 396 call outs , just the stripe though...
Let me know what parts you need. I am not using the wheels or the shocks, motor, trans, exhaust and I have a stripe kit.
Good luck with the project. It looks like an amazing start.
Thanks for the helping offer Brad ! Is your spare stripe white?
I was going to paint it on for now, but once it had fresh paint, I would prefer a stripe kit. I may need some measurements get it right ....
sucks that I had sold all the 69 parts I had, the bright work is pretty good , could use a nicer pair of tail light trim, everything else is 80 % or so.
