I bent the frame of the window so it won't close and broke a lift arm. I can't get the frame straighten to the point that it fits proper. If I can get the frame and window out, I will be able to straighten the frame so things will fit. Problem is it looks like some sort of rivets attach the window and frame to t...

Gearlube and I went for a nice drive Sunday afternoon, and glad we did as I'm afraid this was the last one based on the weather forecast. I drove the vert to Fleet Farm tonight and topped it off with non-oxy at $3.35 a gallon, put it back in the shop, hooked up the battery tender, and other than changing the...

When I pull it up everything is squished in to the upper left corner. I am using Internet Explorer and thus far everything else looks OK.

Got an email from Chuck Hanson today, and he attached a few files from this Club... he's now the newsletter editor. Thought you'd like to see how others "do things", and maybe spark some ideas!

It kind of interesting. Supreme SS with 350 rocket, AC, AM/FM, Cruise, Auto. Supposedly ran and everything worked including power top, when it was parked. Needs complete interior and top. Quarters and fenders need patches with rockers looking good. All trim and moldings are there. Not sure on tr...

So Jamie sends me a pic of a new car for the wife, of course a really decent shoebox Nomad. Now he has to have it shipped from CA so that will add to the cost, but the pics look like a solid car.

Whats a good price for a 66 327 auto with air? Looks pretty solid with minimal body work in the usual spots behind the front and rear wheels. Interior looks to have been redone, good tires and rims.

I know there was a local vendor willing to make die-cut window decals for us. I need to get an estimate on some of these kinds of decals for a work project. Can someone let me know who the local vendor was who had the capability to make die-cut inside-the-window (reversed) participant decals? Thanks!

I got an old Harrison 4 row radiator for a 66-67 chevelle. When I got it there was a split in the lower outlet. I had a shop in Rochester repair it. Needless to say they messed up. They soldered in a used lower outlet. I think they should have just repaired the slit from the inside of the outlet. I c...

Steven, I started a new thread for the topic on your mileage here. You might also check something that seems obvious but I think I figured it out on mine this week. Last week when the alternator went out, I checked the battery when I got home and it was just over 11 volts. Of course, I had driven it 40 miles...

Having lost a key and remote for over 6 months, it looks like I will have to buy a new replacement key at a minimum. I can order one cut from GM for around $90; but looking for a less costly alternative. It's a new style of key that has to be side cut. Looks like you can get a key for around $25 on ebay delivere...
