There is no World of Wheels in MN this year and possibly anymore for a while. The promoters are aging and after losing money on the event here the past few years, they decided to skip MN. There is another show that is a benefit in Sioux Falls SD about the same time. A few of the Camaro Club members are taking t...

First-a genius move. When we moved, 67SS had the great idea to ziptie 2 autodollies together, put plywood on top, and we put my compressor on top of that. Moved onto the truck fairly easily considering it's a top heavy 3 legged thing going up a relatively steep ramp. It was ratcheted to the truck and did...

Ok so if Derek finds the house of his choice and buys it then we should see about hiring this guy to come to his new place. Have a nice cruise down there check out the new digs and then flog the crap out of all our cars. This will also get the neighbors broken in.

I replaced the mufflers on the Chevelle today with some Thrush turbos, while trying to beat the snow storm so that I could take it for a drive and see if I got rid of the droning from the Magnaflows. Just needed a couple more hours, but the snow started just I was finishing up!

A guy in Brooklyn Park has a couple of manuals on 66 chevelle that he would sell to me. He would rather have someone pick them up than mail or ups them. Not sure where he lives, but the ad on craigslist says Brooklyn Park. Though maybe you could just bring them to the meeting in Jan at Karls. Thanks.
