----Fantastic outcome! I was moderatly surprised at the lack of paint in certain areas of the subframe. I wonder if future restorations will incorporate any of what we see here?.....Bill S

WoW!,and it took the rubberized sure-grip coating right off that FRAM oil filter.

I don't think they worried about that Fram filter too much.

The results look terrific on both vehicles. My maroon '67 Z is in need of having this done so I appreciate all the pics. Were the exhaust manifolds left open like that at the bottom or were they capped off during the process?

This looks terrific! I would really like to find someone closer and in Canada that I could take the L-78 Chevelle to. I'll be watching to see what Bob (chevelleheart) thinks of the folks in Calgary who do this, if he decides to go ahead.

Incredible results! Would love to have this done on my '67.

Would have been neat to scale the car before and after. That's a lot of gunk gone.

Love it.

Notice the black rear brake drums, further proving what I have had to argue with some folks about for years, that the entire axle was painted black at the axle plant AFTER it was assembled there. I have a survivor 67 Camaro that shows the same details, as well as multiple survivor 65-67 Chevelles

And the black starter nose - blacked with a cap or mask over only the very end where the drive gear is, bare part not visible after mounted!
