Winter Storage

Using Tim’s old rims I was able to lower the Elky enough to raise the lift one more click (six inches) and park the Buick below it. I have two inches to spare between the Buick and the underside of the lift and two inches of clearance between the top of the Elky and the ceiling.

remote entry key fobs
(Preview)
Ok. Just bought 2 NEW remote entry key fobs for my wifes Cobalt. Does anyone know how to program them ? I'm trying to save $$ not spend it if I don't have to. I looked in the owners manual no dice. $ 65.00 for a dealer to do it is a bit costly for 5 min worth of their time I think. Can someone help on this ??

I believe on the '69 (non El Camino) cars that there is a fuel vent surge on top of the tank and you are supposed to use a non vented cap. Am I correct?

Not much for photos of members cars. But the lead photo does appear to be Rick and his 64 vert with the Car Craft hottie riding in the back. One photo also has the cream colored 66 with the modified 6 liter in it that both Bryan and Chris know in what looks like the RSE braking test.
