I mentioned van columns bc for whatever reason they seem to tend to be the reference point when hunting for a GM column of this type...
Stupid me for forgetting to mention that, but yes. The column I have now is tilt and would definitely want to keep that feature. Looking to keep...
I'm keeping this option open as my last resort. That or going to an *ugh* aftermarket column. What are the closest in configuration to the van...
I currently have an auto van column in my truck, but I've decided to go to a manual trans and don't want to have the gear selector still there on...
Thanks for the replies all. Obviously the goal was to be able to keep power brakes so no matter what the setup would require a remote booster....
Hey all... just realized it's been a loong time since I posted on here at all. So my latest project is a 58 Apache pickup and I'm struggling with...
As much as it pains me to do this, I simply have too many other things on my plate and too limited of resources and physical capability anymore to...
Hmm good info all thx :) I generally etch and then prep with solvent just to be extra safe before priming. Using epoxy primer this time around....
I'm not talking about the loose coating of residue left on the surface, but the actual hard black material that the reaction turns the rust into....
Alright so this is my first time experimenting with this and it seems to be doing an amazing job so far. My biggest and most immediate question...
I've never seen a definitive answer to this- are there any differences in the cabs other than the windows themselves? Like is a 5 window cab any...
I'm not really looking for anything crazy as far as parts hunting, just a couple hard to find things for my 54 like trim pieces, etc. Seems like I...
Planning on hitting up this event this weekend but will probably have to make it a 1 day deal only. Whats the best day to hit it up? I'm sure the...
Soo... yeah. Still getting emails even several months after unsubscribing to certain threads. Then I click on the unsubscribe link in the email...
Bill is a great guy, super friendly and easy to work with. He delivered my baby safe and sound, and not any rustier than she already was! Thanx...
Thanks again for the replies guys. I think I finally got all the ducks in a row, got ahold of some knowledgeable folks in the theft bureau and...
woah... thats alot of replies and questions... I'll try to field everything as much as possible the link posted earlier doesn't look like...
I didn't mean the body production id tag (which on my car is on the pass side cowl in front of the windshield), I meant the body serial # tag...
I probably would take it down to them but recently moved here from out of state, sold my pos truck before we moved and don't have access to a...
cool I guess that's the way I'm going to have to end up going then. I'm gonna make one last call to that inspector I spoke with last week just to...
that was what the inspector I spoke with advised that I should probably do a bonded title which is understandable and fine w me, it absolves the...
yeah I thought of that also, unfortunately I spoke with one of the chief inspectors at the dmv and he made it a point to say that it has to be an...
@ 48chev - correct, no engine/driveline other than rear still in the car. I got the car basically as a shell on a frame and suspension (its the...
Like I said the dmv has to send an inspector out to verify the numbers match as part of the process, so its far from a matter of just walking in...
so after quite a bit of research on this, I'm still confused... for a 50's chevy, should the id # on the title necessarily match the # on the body...
I've got a similar issue with a TX title from '68 which requires notarization by (I'm assuming?) seller (previous owner). There's a spot for it...
hey guys thanx for all the replies, I got sidetracked with a bunch of other stuff and lost track of this thread. I definitely wasnt aware that...
I know the nova clip was the popular thing to do back in the day like when novas came out, but I never really understood what was so great about...
