Out in New York now. Supposedly the second owner was from MN, MN title signed and ready for new owner. I never saw it for sale in MN. Now a dealer has it. I think it probably has a high reserve. But if you could talk to original owner, it might be worth exploring. 66 convert

We spent the day at Barrett Jackson yesterday. The actual auction was interesting but only a small part of the total experience. Not as many auto accessory vendors as I expected. They did have vendors selling everything from fur coats to artwork to jewelry to boats and airplanes. Obviously the peopl...

Happy new year everyone. In an effort to defeat the winter blues, I am working on the improvements that Lucy is going to be getting this year. I have a vintage air system sitting in the basement ready to install, and while the dash is out, the other project is going to be a windshield/ dash paint/dash pa...

The SA down the street is at 3.49 a gallon. I drove another block and it was 3.27 a gallon. Looks like the oil companies are going to strangle us even more then they have been lately.

Been a busy few days. Got "in-country" 12/22 without incident, no problems with customs or anything (surprisingly, as three of our checked bags will crammed with "stuff" ordered online from people down here!). A very long day - Got to MSP around 8:30am, landed in Quito (via At...

Look for a part that was on a 66 medium size truck. It's just a clip for holding wire; but is not reproduced as it existed in 1966. There is a replica re-produced that I could use; but they want about $8 each plus shipping. Thanks

Is there a way to check out the carrier to see what the condition it is in? On a casual inspection the bearings and race appear to be good along with the single sims for each side.

Bryan mentioned this car in the November news letter and I had taken a pic of it at the Garlit's museum. It is crammed in along side many other historic cars, so is hard to really get a good look at. [URL=http://s1357...

Just an FYI. I was going to place an order and found they are running two on-line discounts right now, either 20% off code CYBER20 or free shipping code BF2015 or the usual 10% for being a Team Chevelle member. Can only use one.

Direct replacment for carb, self learning, can control timing and cooling fan if desired. Seems like a nice kit for a $1000 bucks. Is fairly new system so no real long term test that I could find. http://fitechefi.com/
