1966 Chevrolet Chevelle

A friend dropped by in Dec 2019 with a 1966 Chevelle he had recently purchased and wanted both opinions and some work done on it. He had always wanted a classic to drive and had been setting aside the funds to get the one he wanted. He found this one that was a close enough starting point, it just needed a "few" changes. So he brought it over to get an estimate for the work.
