Amazing what you'll find in a condo's underground parking garage... all within 50' of eachother. There was also a '69/'70 RoadRunner (I think) under a cover. (these are cell phone pics, but that's DUST on the GNX )

I know the 66 has a smaller diameter column 2 bolt mount than the 67 but does the 67 have the 3 bolt mount too ? I'm looking at a dash on-line and the owner doesn't know which year it is. Thanks !

Didn't get a dispatch last night for today, no phone call yesterday or this morning, and nothing as of 9:45... Went into the shop and found the "Technician" PC was locked with an unknown password so I couldn't access the schedule (even if I knew where it was filed)... So - putting the Union "Show Up Pay" 2...

Last week my work had a first come first serve cheap sale of used laptops and desktops. I got there about 45 min. before the start, and I was the 17th person in line! I did get 2 laptops for $75 ea. and they do need the batteries replaced, but they did come with docking stations, so we're using those until...

I was just finishing up a Muncie build for another club member when I realized I didn't have a speedo gear. So, I dug out on old one that needed a rebuild to swipe the gear. When I picked it up, there was some "rattling" inside. When I opened it up, this thing fell out (see pic). So can anyone ident...

You were spotted at Car Craft. Here's the pic I took when I left a card, if you didn't see the pic before. Somewhere on the forum is all the Car Craft Chevelle pics I took.

I just got back from moving my parents back to Minnesota from Arizona. We drove most of the way of the old Route 66. It was neat but I would like someday to do the old route as much as possible from end to end. We left Arizona on Friday at noon and went from Arizona to New Mexico, Texas and Oklahoma City. I've d...

Bryan, the oil dipstick and tube that came with my 402 is a stock tube with a chrome dipstick. The tube is pitted and beyond cleaning up. Does GM still stock/sell the stock BBC dipstick and tube? I've looked at the usual sources (NPD, Ground Up, Year One, etc.) and nobody seems to sell this in the stock c...

I'll be spending next week in Duluth, GA for some card access training (no funny business, I've got a dog and a wife who can shoot ). With the exception of a "Hooter's" being across the parking lot, and "Wild Bills" nightclub down the road, Duluth GA is a black hole. It's about 45 mins NE of Atlanta. I will h...

Anyone have any clean ideas? I don't need any "Daddy, what does the 'F' on your plate stand for?" questions from the kiddos. I don't want anything that I have to explain either...

I forgot to delete the Craiglist ad for the Cutlass when I put it in storage at Jamie's. Now there is a guy in NY really interested in it! We even agreed on a price and he's thinking about it but I'll have to get a hold of Jamie and see if it would even be possible to get at it.

Flipped the club calendar page this morning to March, and there's this 'golden egg' shaped Chevelle on it! I guess that's in anticipation of Easter. Right Pushrod? I guess I shouldn't tease since my '72's trim/body tag decodes as it was originally Mojave Gold...

Since the turbo jet 396 in the 66 will need a rebuild. I was thinking I could scoop up the pair of these Turbo Jet 532's instead. Course, it would probably require a few modifications here and there. http://hartford.craigslist.org/pts/2226055168.html

Does the flex plate side with the recessed mounting pockets go on the converter side or the motor side when installing it? The one I took off the 402 had the pockets on the motor side, which I think was backwards as shouldn't the converter mounts fit into the pockets? Or, does it depend on how much spacing...

2 words: heat gun I was using it to heat the floor insulation I was putting in my car.
