The 3 deuces are great, especially since they're Rochesters. It's a pretty car.

Very cool.

I was reading your other threads and I wonder if they show the part where Teflon tape is used on the fuel line fitting.

I have been told the Body kit was a Motion Performance kit. I got a 1972 date on the installation and original customization. The body panels are all press molded and bonded at the factory bonding seams just like the originals. I have no documentation, wish I did.

I KNOW I posted a question, but it's NOT on here now....
MY question was: How does the program work...do you have to pay anything toward them coming in & doin' all this work? Do they pay you anything, or just "give" you the parts & labor???
