Premium Playsets in exchange for restoration work
My name is Kevin Simbeck. I am a new member to the Tri-Lakes Cruisers. I have a 68 Chevelle in restoration and I need some assistance completing finish work on the body and have it sprayed. I can pay for supplies, but I do not have the time to learn, the expertise, or tools to spray it. This car will be a driver and I am leaning towards a 1 stage paint. My goal is to complete the Chevelle by July for a road trip.
In trade for any help I can get, I restore and install premium playsets for kids. I only work with redwood and cedar sets since they are the ideal woods for outdoor applications. After the restoration process they will be good for 10-15+ more years. They also get some additional upgrades from the factory set (resto-mods). I sell them for 1/4-1/2 the price of the set when it was new to cover costs and labor for each set. So far I have diverted 85,000 pounds of playset material from the landfill and put it back into service. My original goal was 100,000 pounds and I should achieve it this year.
As weather warms up so does my playset schedule and I fear I may miss the opportunity to check off this "bucket list” item off this year. So-If anyone has the time, talent, and tools, I would love to pursue a discussion.
If interested you can see some of the playscapes at 123playset.com. Or you can contact me directly for more details at 303-550-7843. Thanks for your time reading this and I look forward to meeting more members in person.

1956 4-door BelAir For Sale
Hey guys, I am going to be leaving the area and probably want to sell my 1956 4 door BelAir. It has a paint off,strip, blast , (hardly any rust since it came from Gallup). All rust has been neutralized and recoated. Three stage pearl white top merging with the 210 Crome with a burgandy/red metallic, hand sanded and polished professional paint and body. Engine is a new 350 ci, with nicer heads that have stainless valves, seats, and some polish in intake. A mild cam also. Not sure how much hp but should be better than stock. The running gear is new balanced driveshaft flowing into a completely rebuilt rear end with and rear stock suspension using Bilstein shocks. New leafs. The transmission is an TH-700R4, new. The front end is stock with new wheel bearings, ball joints, (car has not been aligned I think this is the weakest mechanical issue). New body bushings throughout. New interior red and white, kind of like a retro look. Steering is modified but still is stock with no power. I just replaced the column. It could use a power steering modification if you aren’t man enough to turn that wheel. Everyone knows these ride like boats unless you upgrade which I chose not to. Also the brakes are still unassisted and require a bit of gumption to get her to slow down. Breaks are renewed but still it is a heavy car it does not pull. Obviously all wheels (retro crager, type) new tires, staggered front to rear. Please call me, I would like to give you guys first dibs at an offer. I have been to the car shows over the past years and I saw a local one very similar to mine. Anyway. 505-401-2874 and I live in Monument. I am thinking in the $25-28k zone. You can come by and verify all of the above.
Sincerely,
Jeffery Firebaugh 4003 Forest L

Want to Borrow/Loan
In my odds/ends bin I came across this collection of window cranks, door handles, etc (below). Free to any member that has a use. I have no idea what vehicle they are meant for and you can see that it’s an incomplete set for a four door. Larry Sutton
