  1. Great pictures Walt ! Regarding the second picture, the NY tag has "60" stamped on it, so safe bet this was taken in 1960..... did New York State issue new plates every year ? Keep the photos coming ! Steve
  2. Wow..... that has to be very rare, especially a two door model. James, I have to say that it looks genuine to me. Steve
  3. A BIG Thank You goes out to Chris ( hursst ) ! Chris found that small bracket that I needed on a recent junkyard visit..... it cleaned up great, painted it the other day and attached it to large center bracket where the hood latch plate is attached to. I just finished mounting that bracket to the radiator support and attached the hood latch and the two horns. Steve
  4. Great pictures Walt..... I really like the body lines of the LeBaron Coupe ! Steve
  5. Thanks Chris... If I don't hear back from my friend in NJ by Thursday, I'll let you know ! I really appreciate it ! Steve
  6. Great project Ted..... I'll be following along ! ( By the way, what year did Chevrolet stop using wood in their trucks ? ) Steve
  7. Hey John..... I can't believe I missed that small bracket. I took the bracket off of my other '69 Impala to use as a reference, took some pictures and sent them off to my friend down in NJ, where I've been buying parts from. If he comes up empty, I have a few other sources to check out before I end up making one myself. You can see from the pictures how unique this small bracket is....how it fits into the larger bracket. Hopefully I should hear back from him this week. Getting cold here, once I get this bracket installed and the grill back on the car, I'll be done until the nice weather comes around again... Steve
  8. Thanks to all that have served ! My Dad served in Korea and my daughter is currently serving as a MA out in Silverdale, Washington - both US Navy. Steve
  9. Just checked out Zillow for that area...some really nice homes ! Steve
  10. I can't find any pictures of my wife with my cars... she jokingly refers to them as the "other women".... but I do have a neat picture of my kids ( they look really enthusiastic ) and a current one as of yesterday where my daughter made a surprise visit ! Steve
  11. Ok, here is a picture of me driving my 1969 Impala in Vermont about 9 years ago, coming back from a show in Stratton Mountain. I was caught off guard, turned out to be one of the editors from Hemmings. I purchased it in 2004, had 4900 original miles on it..... I've been restoring a SS427 Impala over the past few years now and there is a blog going on over on the restoration projects here in this forum. Steve
  12. I seen this fire extinguisher tonight on one of those automotive channels and being in the fire service years ago, I found it very interesting. Just curious if any other member here has purchase this product ? " Element Fire Extinguisher " Steve
  13. Those guys were great.... use to watch them Sunday mornings ! My parents seen Huntz Hall at Bear Mountain ( near West Point Military ) years ago, watching the ski jumps. Steve
  14. I have friends that go there every year... the pictures that they post from the show are unbelievable...... it's on my bucket list ! Steve
  15. One step forward, two steps back 🙄. I was all set to install the center bracket which I just painted the other day and I just noticed two drill holes. So I looked at the assembly diagram photo and my other '69 Impala and sure enough, there is a small " L " shape bracket that is needed to secure the bottom grill. Now I have to go thru the boxes of parts to see if it's in there, if not, I'll just remove the one off of the other '69 so I can use it as a template and make one up. To be continue..... Steve
  16. Looks like a really nice car... good luck with preservation, I'll be following along ! Steve
