So I used to be way more active here and am trying to return to that, you guys are great. I have been having pain and numbness in my neck,arms, hands and legs for over a year. I went to a neurologist and neurosurgeon after numerous mri scans and tests they found constriction in my neck around...

I used to be quite active here, I hope some remember me. My name is Jay, I am 48 and live north of Spokane. I am looking forward to seeing what people have been building. I moved from eastern Oregon about two years ago to 10 acres in the forest. Fixing our house, like indoor plumbing has kept me...

My dad has been fighting cancer for awhile and has developed blood clots in his lungs. He is in hospital where I grew up 150 miles from here. We have been having real bad weather of course. I will have to wear a contamination suit to see him. I have had to take a few unpaid days to go see him...

Did anyone get car stuff for Christmas? I got a new Performer intake for my Olds 455. Coolest gift ever for me. Merry Christmas to all

Anyone else into fishing?

I am thinking of putting a '47 Chevy truck together for an older couple in my shop. I would be changing it to a V8 and rewiring at the least. I know how to do the work but do not know a fair price to charge. I am thinking $30 an hour plus materials, does that sound fair? I would be using my...

I have been slowly completing the swap of the Olds 455 into my '42 Chevy and took it out a couple weekends ago for the shakedown run. It was OK but not as fast as I hoped it would be. I went over why it was not more powerful and when I checked my throttle I found the cable was only opening the...

I bought a Puma oil compressor because my Coleman oil-less was almost useless. It is amazing for my air tools, it keeps up real well. I really love it and $400 is a decent price. It is even quieter than my smaller one and it builds enough pressure so quick I am amazed by it. I am painting my...

My cousin has an '82 Chevy truck with a 292. He has been having rough running issues. I have been helping and here is what I found. The distributor (an HEI) mechanical advance was rusted open and the springs were stretched out. We replaced the whole distributor to fix that. I noticed the...

I got my 455 out of the car and am getting ready to clean it up to swap it into my '42 Chevy, replacing the perfectly good Olds 350in there now. I will do a threadwhen I clean up the engine and bay later this winter. I can't wait for the extra torque this thing is going to put it out. It is a...

I am planning on picking up a 1976 Olds 455 with an Edelbrock Performer intake and a Q-jet. I will hear it run before I pull it. It is totally complete for $600 and they will pull it. I currently have a 1974 Olds 350 with a Performer intake and Edelbrock 750 carb and dual exhaust. My question is...

We went to a car show in Payette , Idaho. It is about 75 miles from home. Not many rats but I will share all the shiny ones also. The pink car is like my '42 Chevy but chopped 6 inches. I hope you enjoy them.

Here are pics from the show in Baker City. I will post most of them as there were only a few rats there. Hope you guys like.

I recently acquired a spare gas tank like this? I have never seen one . It is for the spare tire area.

I had been looking at this place for a long time and a younger friend of mine knew them so we got to go. They are all for sale, but mostly parts for projects. Hope you like the pics.

I have a friend who knew I have an Olds 350 in my '42 Chevy and would like to have a big block Olds. He called me Monday night and said he knew of one for the hauling. I went and got it last night about a 75 mile round trip. I have mostly decoded it and am very excited. It is a 1967 425 from an...

These are my cars. The fastback is my $400 '42 chevy aerosedan with a '74 Nova front clip and rear end. It has an Olds 350/400 combo, I rewired it and converted it to 12 volt and it is a driver. The '53 Ford truck has a '79 Firebird front clip and a 70's Chevy truck rear end. It is a Chevy 305/...

This is my first thread I have started, I hope this is appropriate. I love to fish as well as cars, maybe some of you guys also enjoy the outdoors. The pics are of Hell's Canyon in eastern Oregon and a trip I took on November 14th of '09. The fish is a steelhead 30 inches long and about 10 lbs...
