Went to Rock Falls for the muscle car drags on Saturday and ended up with my first racing trophy. Not as impressive as the collection in Keith's thread, but I went 3 rounds and ended up 2nd in the 12.0 class. I got beat in the final by reaction time, my .223

to his .060. I made up some time, but stil...

This is coming up next week... it's a timed endurance/speed run for Model T's that has been held annually since 1961. I have wanted to do it for years, but honestly I'm not a good enough T-mechanic to build a competitive car. Some day I'll do it though... www.montana500.com Here's a cool video from 10 ye...

My BIL just picked this mid-50s; (I think a 55) Ford Tractor for $1500.00. Three point hitch, PTO, lights everything works. I always wanted to restore one of these for yard work, guess I need to get a bigger yard first.

I think the system used for the horn on the steering wheel is somewhat the same on 64-67 chevelles. When I push of the left side of the horn ring the horn works. When I push on the bottom or right side, it doesn't work. I have taken apart and cleaned. If I just hold that thin washer that makes contact with t...

I have the interior apart on my '69 to adjust the windows. I was looking at a post on Team Chevelle tonight and it said there were window crank springs only on the front window cranks, not the rear quarters window cranks. Does anyone know if this is correct?

As some of you know, I bought a '66 Malibu with a big block last summer. I changed the oil for the first time about a week ago and ran into a problem. The oil pan has kickouts on the sides for more capacity. When I removed the filter, it got as far as the kickout and between that and the headers, there was no room...
