    What's up guys and girls?

    Long time no see. Well monday evening this week an old lady was driving past my 64 that was parked in front of my house. She sneezed, jerked the wheel and sideswiped the crap out of it! Insurance was gonna total it because it's old, but when they found out how much it was worth they decided...

    80 xs650 Bobber build

    Alright guys and gals, figured I'd get you up to date on my latest project. For starters, last year I was hit head on by a car while riding my Ducati. I am really lucky to be alive, but the bike was totaled. I had a couple xs650 carcasses laying around so I started to chop them up. This...

    Long time no see.

    Hey guys and girls, been a while. Glad to see some of the same faces as the old days and a couple new ones. Still have the 64 and the 52. Just got done rebuilding the trans in the impala. I've been keeping busy in the psych ward, working on my projects and my masters in counseling...

    250 Questions

    Turns out my six is a 250 and not a 292, which is cool with me. From what i've been reading the only difference between the two is the deck height. Numerous places say that the heads on all the sixes are interchangeable and that if you want to bump the compression up you just put a 235 head on...

    Radiator question

    I've got a 292 six with a four speed in my 52 that is on an 80 suspension. I have to buy a radiator that will fit and this is what I'm thinking about. http://www.speedwaymotors.com/p/3557,34_Speedway-Tru-Kool-Aluminum-Radiators-Chevy.html My question is do you think the 22" x 19" will be enough...

    64 impala heater core?

    I've been beating my head against the wall for a couple of hours now. Has anyone done a heater core in one of these? You'd think that it would be just like every other heater core known to man, but it doesn't seem that way. I've got a buddy on the way over now, but I figured I'd ask you guys...

    Should I or shouldn't I?

    The guy that gave me the two model A's told me tonight that his friend has a 37 chevy truck all original, running and driving that he'd get rid of for $1500. I guess he took it as payment for some sandblasting and it's just been taking up space in his shop for a couple of years. Is this...

    Dana 60 death wobble

    This doesn't have to do with a rat, but I know a lot of the members are into 4x4's. I put a dana 60 front end in my 83 chevy and now I'm getting the famous "death wobble". It seems that everybody has this problem but nobody knows the cause. At about 25-30 mph if you hit a bump just right, the...

    Wheel backspacing?

    Does anybody have a simple chart of the different backspacings for different applications for gm 5 on 5 wheels? I need some different wheels for the 52 and one of my buddies said that cars had different backspacing than trucks. I've been searching the interweb with no luck. I might try taking...

    I might be lazy!?!?

    Ok, I have a confession. I haven't driven the 64 in a couple of weeks because the gasket between the heat riser and the exhaust manifold blew out. I didn't think I'd be able to find it at the local moron parts store and I thought the studs would probably break when I went to take them off...

    I'm weak!!!!

    So, my roommate came in my room the other day because he's hurtin for some money. The only thing that he has that I was interested in was his AK 47 that he just bought a couple of months ago. I'm weak for toys, so I slipped him $200 and got the practically new gun with a couple hundred rounds...

    52 GMC build

    I'm finally making some progress on the 52. I just picked up this cab for $150, that is in a lot better shape than my original. The original needed about $500 in panels and this one need a couple that I can make for cheap.:D:D I removed the front clip off of my 80 c10 that I'm using as a...

    I'm baking, but I love it!!!!

    People are really looking at me weird today. The thermometer is reading 107 and I 'm still driving the 64 all over the place. I just did all the bs errands and everywhere I stopped people were praising me for driving it in this weather. As long as your moving its fine, but when I got stuck on...
