The Jalopy Journal
Thanks for the tip on McCoy's, I have an OT gen1 Camaro that needs a real alignment shop. I was also told to try Lloyd's Tire in Belmont.
...just in time for snow! :( What alignment shop do you use?
I'm not sure if this is convertible top worthy, but my wife has bought dies and grommets from kamsnaps.com that worked pretty well.
Any further contact with the seller, or have they continued radio silence (or have you given up on the deal) ?
Congrats!!!!
You'll never fit all that in the toolbox back there... :)
If you want really low budget leather...look for a leather couch to harvest.
Is that because it's downhill? :)
TLDR: Line up the o marks on the sprockets and you're done. The triangle and square marks are to change the *cam* timing. That's the position of...

Those tinted windows look great!!! Won't be long now before you're driving it everywhere.
That laugh in the video says it all. Congrats!!
Crusty. Definitely the crusty one.
if that 283 had the oem front sump Nova pan in it, you have to swap the pan, oil pump/pickup, and the pump drive shaft to convert it to a generic...

New body needs a new frame. No question about it. You seem to have tastes that change over time. If you have TWO projects, you can pick the one...
And 75 (?) years ago, someone was putting the original bolt back in and then...pop...shit...shit...shit!!! Stripped it! What am I gonna do now?...
Hard to tell from that picture angle, but...if those lines are above your MC, it's going to be tough to bleed. Pressure bleeder maybe?
I put the alternator low on the driver's side...gets it out of the way of taking the valve covers off. I used an Alan Grove bracket setup, but...
LOL...I can sympathize. Last project I bought had a lot of those moments during the sales pitch. Just gotta be quiet and let 'em run themselves out.
Do they make auto-darkening lenses? :) FWIW...my dad got the procedure done a couple of years ago on both eyes (one at a time naturally.) He...
