So far its going smooth. Everybody that ive talked to before i started install yesterday say they are a pain to work with and adjust but so far so good.

Got the Dakota Digi's put in the cluster tonight. Waiting on the dash and dash pad to come in Friday so I can mock it all up. They were out of stock of the plain black gauges so I took a chance and ordered the carbon fiber apperence and I think I like them

Got the dash in place just temporary and I installed a set of Clayton Machine Works pedals. They look great and are made with attention to detail. I will say this however, the kit does not come with any instructions. Even though the kit did go together with only a few adjustments needed it would have been nice to have a guide with specifications on the hardware. I had to make one hole for the brake booster rod that threads into the u shaped fitting larger as it did not fit the wilwood hydroboost rod. I know that's a terrible description but just a heads up that the kit may require modification but not much. I'll try and get better pics as I go along. When I pulled the stock gas pedal bracket off a pile of sand came into the car from when I had the car lasted about 4 years ago. I'm sure I'll find sand in the car for years to come.

Picked up a shifter setup from a friend. It's a Muncie handled promatic shifter mounted on a 4 speed shifter hump. It's a nice piece and will look great. The boot is a Mack truck cover that way it's big enough to fit over the promatic. Not running a console with this setup.

And the shifter ball. I liked this quote and I've seen similar ones.

Well it looks like i may have to sell the Chevelle and without ever getting to drive it. Im not really sure on how to even start the process or what the car is realistically worth. I have almost every receipt almost 80-90k worth but just not sure what i could realistically get for this car. Any ideas? Is there a good website for cars like this or maybe a forum board i could look into? Thanks.
