Having met your dad a few times I can verify hes a great guy so if its a 67 chevelle he likes that is the way to go. We have similar taste in vehicles but a 55 is still top dog for me. Maybe you can make use of some of those shelves full of big block parts he was saving.

 Thanks Randy. Yes the 55 is a very close second for him, but the Chevelle trumps it. He bought one brand new in 67 so it has more meaning to him. I am using one of the complete 396 motors that he has for the car. I have an M-20 for it too so it should be a decent car when completed. Hope I can get things rolling asap. Wish me luck

That happens a lot when you own a car trailer 

Don't you hate it when old cars follow you home?

Nice score!

Broke but happy.

Ordered a bunch more metal for the car. Already have a full floor with braces and inner rockers. Also have a full trunk pan with braces and passenger quarter. Ordered drop offs, inner and outer wheel houses, outer rockers and tail panel. Sad to say but I still need a ton more. I hope this ends well. Fingers crossed

Goodmark. AMD is better but getting stuff here is a pain. I have a buddy that owns a small parts store that gets deliveries from the states every few weeks so he gets my stuff sent with those deliveries and I basically get the shipping charge for nothing. Only problem is that he can only get Goodmark metal. Requires a bit of finessing but it works pretty good.
Good example is on Goodmark website a drivers side quarter is $677.60 US ($908.43 CDN). He can cave it landed here in Nova Scotia for $822.15 with shipping broker fees duty and taxes in. Thats cheaper than the exchange right off the bat so Ill definitely work with what he can get me!

Gillis,

Just read through all the replies in this thread. Great to read and see another 1967 Beaumont SD is being restored back to the street. I'm guessing your Beaumont SD is a 73817 car, instead of the A51 Sport Option model car. Thirty years to get your restoration doesn't matter. As the restoration in now under way. Nice factory colour combination. Lower body exterior paint code K = Emerald Turquoise, upper body exterior vinyl top colour Top27 = Black. With interior code 763 = Black vinyl bucket seat Mid year or late production car? Any interesting options on your Beaumont Sport Deluxe?

Looks like progress. If you need a frame let me know . Thinking of letting go of some parts.

Wow. Ambition plus. Get at it.....

 Not ambition. It is called stupidity. There won't be much original metal left by the time I'm done

But when you are done, it will look a lot like Kevin's 66 !

It will be worth it.
