There is a guy on Team Chevelle looking for a little help. I meant to ask around today, but with all the noise and stuff, I didn't get it done.

Had a "Shake out the pants leg" moment on Saturday. Was peeling off 212 onto 169 north in the "Green Mary" at about 50mph... a nice smooth/gradual on-ramp, in dry conditions and WHAMMO - the azz-end kicks out on me!

Using Tim’s old rims I was able to lower the Elky enough to raise the lift one more click (six inches) and park the Buick below it. I have two inches to spare between the Buick and the underside of the lift and two inches of clearance between the top of the Elky and the ceiling.

Ok. Just bought 2 NEW remote entry key fobs for my wifes Cobalt. Does anyone know how to program them ? I'm trying to save $$ not spend it if I don't have to. I looked in the owners manual no dice. $ 65.00 for a dealer to do it is a bit costly for 5 min worth of their time I think. Can someone help on this ??

Derek's disease for more cars has got me thinking. I started out wanting a turn key street rod but can't find any I like in my price range. My search has degenerated to rusty cars that need complete restos. I will have more funding coming in december. Should I wait for that and buy a done car, or get a decent...

I believe on the '69 (non El Camino) cars that there is a fuel vent surge on top of the tank and you are supposed to use a non vented cap. Am I correct?

Yep it’s coming, what plans you have for your winter projects. I’m planning a LS engine install in the Buick, some light bodywork and a new top. Repaint will have to wait until 2014.

Not much for photos of members cars. But the lead photo does appear to be Rick and his 64 vert with the Car Craft hottie riding in the back.

One photo also has the cream colored 66 with the modified 6 liter in it that both Bryan and Chris know in what looks like the RSE braking test.

Looking on team chevelle there are conflicting posts on the correct color for the power steering pump. I thought it was semi gloss and most agree but some say gloss black. Opinions?
