The new floor came out amazing. So much better than I could have done. I requested a removable panel for future work -- so the trans top cover and...
Bump ... rare and ready to run
I had limited access to my water distribution tube. I could slide it partway out, but not completely. If I pulled the grille, I could have removed...

To add to what others have posted: - All Pontiac 39-56 have 10-spline side gears. - Oldsmobile 16-spline side gears began somewhere in the early...
We demand updates!
