Default Jeff Helms '67 L78 El Camino at MCACN

If this state-of-the-art Jeff Helms/Terry Davis restoration didn't stop you in your tracks, you weren't paying attention! Jeff (jeffschevelle) doesn't find much time to post on boards, but his level of detail and dedication to authenticity is incredible!!
Two other cars built on the same assembly line with 30 days of this one were used as reference for things like hanging the rad support from the hole that allows paint runs same direction as original, to unseen details like sourcing matching roof insulation and duplicating oversprays and markings on the interior side of the firewall, even tough these would be covered up by headliner and firewall pad.
That level was carried through, around, under, inside and outside of the entire resto.
