The classic car garage I work at has a couple car shows a year. And at every one there will be at least one of those guys. The cleanest Chevy Celebrity on the planet. Only 34k on it! One of only 345,000 brown on tan! And the guy has a full display of every dealership poster and carpet samples. Hey-hes having fun for…

Southwestern Ct-Chadwick is the 3rd most popular name.
They did it in 2013—-with their 2015 M-B?
Who says nobody loved? It was just too damn expensive! Sold at a time when Honda sold 50 different bikes. If you’re a thumper lover (I am) It’s a dream bike. If you could get it for $2k, you could hop it up -add a good suspension and make a fun bike you could beat on and not worry about devaluation.
The article didn’t specifically say anything about her sexual orentation -but Northhampton + Forrester kinda says they colored over her rainbow license plate frame...
But look how much enjoyment the owner is getting out of it.
Anyone ever change a starter on a v-8—raise your hand. The hand you have left! Pretty much pull the engine. On a 2 bolt, one wire starter. Agreed-shiity car. Made cool looking drag cars though.
Hurray! Someone else (and I also do restos + mark + label parts) that gets it! I couldn’t figure the anger. When you sell off your electric E type project 10 years from now, If I can find the left side motor mount + carb mounting bracket (and the 100's of other stupid special parts) it makes my life sooo much easier…
That’s the idea I had a couple years ago. Make a kit for dummies-something that will attach to Chevy motor mounts. (Hey- everything on the planet has a kit for a Chevy.) I’m sure there’s other like me that would be willing to try going electric-just don’t want to wait for that learning curve thing. Get past the DIY…
Yea-that was my next guess.
“ Ive never towed with it-the brakes sucked-the trailer from Uhaul had dry rotted tires-the lights didn’t work-and it was an 800 tow-in the rain.”
aa-mfg.com with this catalog, Blinky would have been done years ago. ( I’m stocking up now.)
But then who will all your aunts/uncles/friends/neighbors gonna call when they need something hauled? ( Note* I’ve owned vans/cube van/ short buses for the last 35 years.)
Yup-I’ve help build 3 of them.
Yup on both counts. And “crate engine” classes beat us up even more.
I’ve been an automotive machinist since the late 70's. You got it-once carbs went away, the need for the 80k rebuild did too. Plus better oil-better materials-and actual engineering rather than crappy redo’s of the same engines designed in the 50's. The need for our work is down 75% compared to when I started. It’s…
<—-20 year hillclimb veteran. In New England (hillclimb.org New England Hillclimb Association on FB) You can run without a cage-up to a certain time. This way you can get a taste of what its like-but once you get fast, the next investment is safety equipment. Cage-Hans-Fire suit etc. We have 7 or 8 hills a year.…
Are you kidding me? I’ve spent most my time and all my money to feel 2-3 G!
