Flew into Indianapolis today through Wednesday for work, and went to Avis for my rental, which was a Toyota Corolla (not too exiting). After I put all my stuff in it and went to start it and it was completely dead, would not do anything? Unpacked all my stuff and went to the Preferred counter, let them k...

Okay guys- I need some local knowledge here. I plan on installing my Tri-Y headers and I want to have them tied in to my existing exhaust system. This isn't a huge deal, but I want it done right, once, so I don't have to think about it again. I have a lot of good connections in the area but I've yet to find a re...

Aren't most of the El Camino parts (except the body ones of course) interchangeable with the chevelles of the same years? Things like rear ends, dashes, steering columns, etc.

Finaly washed the 71 for the first time today (had it since 06) and took a few pictures. Looks OK from 70 feet or so, a few of you have seen it and my shop, not so great up close!

Anyway, for better or worse, here they are!

Just saw the new Transformers movie with my son. They had a 69 Chevelle SS in the movie? It was the same color as Jon H's convertible, but a coupe with black vinyl top. Don't know that I have seen a 69 in a movie before? Great movie, non stop action. The Megan Fox replacement was very nice, if I don't say....

I was told Friday that the MSMA trailer was stolen this past week. It's a white enclosed trailer covered in the MSMA logo and lettering. It's decent size, probably big enough for a motorcycle. Keep your eyes out and ears open. Unfortunately, this is where they have kept all thier car show supplies and...

It sure is quiet on here for ANOTHER rain day. What's everybody doing ? I would think Back to the 50's was a wash today. We are getting ready for our BWCA trip and hoping it doesn't rain the whole time we are up there too. Might be a very short trip if that happens. 3 days away from "Summer" and I'm s...

Happy Father's Day (And to the Dad's that are no longer with us-You are in our thoughts today)!!! Going to my sister-in-law's for a BBQ this afternoon. Somehow I think I'll end up doing the grilling.... but that's o.k., it's good to still be needed.

I see you have to have an overflow tank on you're radiator to pass tech at the dragstrip. Anyone know how big they have to be?

I just got back from there and I gotta say, I wish I knew about him sooner. I was going to order a couple Lokar parts off ebay but he had the cable kit in stock for LESS and ordered the pedal assembly for next week and that was about the same but without shipping. Nice guy to work with and willing to take the tim...

Shannan and I took the scenic route home as we often do. We stopped and ate dinner at the Pizzeria. While there about 25 cars rolled in many with numbers on the door and drivers still sporting name tags. They all ate in the same separate room. I'm pretty sure they where a group of Derek and Scott's autocros...

I am looking for a business in town that I can get some upper control arm bolts in the next few days. I have checked Friendly Chevy, Napa, Johns, O Rielly, TNT. Any other ideas where to get some.

I don't know if it was the cool dense air, putting the 3/8" spacer back under the carb, or what, but the Chevelle was running great tonight!
