I think the system used for the horn on the steering wheel is somewhat the same on 64-67 chevelles. When I push of the left side of the horn ring the horn works. When I push on the bottom or right side, it doesn't work. I have taken apart and cleaned. If I just hold that thin washer that makes contact with t...

I have the interior apart on my '69 to adjust the windows. I was looking at a post on Team Chevelle tonight and it said there were window crank springs only on the front window cranks, not the rear quarters window cranks. Does anyone know if this is correct?

As some of you know, I bought a '66 Malibu with a big block last summer. I changed the oil for the first time about a week ago and ran into a problem. The oil pan has kickouts on the sides for more capacity. When I removed the filter, it got as far as the kickout and between that and the headers, there was no room...

The trim rings I have are dinged up with curb rash here and there and the center caps have faded bowties and a few dings. Any recommendation on which aftermarket center caps and trim rings to buy? I'm more interested in the quality of the parts versus being exact replicas of the originals.
