We're back to work on the Chevelle after a long summer break. After finishing an absolutely flawless paint job, Jamie Davis of Jamie Davis Restorations bolted the body onto the chassis, and returned the brilliant red Chevy back to the ATC.
We have 4 classes of anxious new students, along with a few familiar faces returning from last school year. One of last year's students, Adam Lee, has already started installing the Painless wiring harness. Adam's really been impressed with how every circuit is clearly labeled for a seamless installation. He says he feels like a pro already!

Getting Started
After we removed the body from the frame, some of the Welding students boxed parts of the frame, and made a few repairs. Then, we sent it out to be sandblasted and powder-coated. When the frame got back, the first component we installed was the air suspension from Air Ride Technologies. We had to cut the frame's upper coil spring mounts in order for the new air springs to clear. Even though the installation manual gave instructions on the procedure, we were pretty nervous about slicing on our freshly powder-coated frame! But it turned out to be fairly painless. Next on the list is our disc brake conversion kit.
