1995 Camaro
Well my daily driver just became a small project. About a month ago the 2nd gear synchro went out. Tried to order a new synchro and fix it but found out the synchro is part of one of the shafts. Once I knew the tranny was junk I decided to nurse it until fall. Until today that is. On my ride home to...

Unfortunately, it's a single to the muffler, and duals from there. But it does have a real nice tone, esp. for a bone-stock 305. And it all looks brand new, from the Y-pipe on back. Looks pretty good. That graphic on the side doesn't look bad. Probably not worth the trouble to remove it. You know, ...

History Detective?
The N. Carolina DMV responded to my request for information. I can now safely say that this car found its first owner in Charlotte, North Carolina. It was titled on 2/12/75. According to these records it had six owners in North Carolina. It had 94811 miles on 11/15/88 – it currently has 99,900 and c...

Hurricane Victims
Besides the obvious tragedy of all the people who died or lost all their stuff - what about the classic cars that didn't make it out? http://www.thegroovybean.com/HURRICANEKATRINA/c3beach10.jpg The pic is from a member of a Corvette forum I am on. It is not his car - rather one he spotted on his way...

8/29 update:
Adjusted the steering gear box – what an improvement! I had more than an inch of free play in the steering wheel, now there is practically none. It only took 2 minutes to do. Fixed the leaky header on the passenger side. The bolts holding the y-pipe to the cast iron header were slightly loose, and w...

Need a 17 1/2" clutch fan
Anyone have an old clutch fan? My Vette needs a 17.5" diameter fan. It has an 18" flex fan right now and it sounds like a giant hair dryer, not to mention it is hitting the shroud when I floor it from a dead stop. The fan I bought at Randolph is too big, and cutting one down just does not ...

Update 8/22: As expected the rims arrived on the 17th. The paint on the rims is acceptable and they were basically rust free. Put the tires on them and installed them on the car that night. Each had a small ding in the outside edge of the rim. I corrected one with a hammer and a drift – the other di...

I think the Lumina / Dodge Ram / Beretta should all go heads up in a Cheeseburger triangle... -BP I think the Dodge already knows he can't beat the Lumina - unless he has made some performance mods. You are just stirring up trouble. Oh yeah, as it stands now that Lumina could eat your Ford alive. T...

Well not much action since last week. After completing the polish job I washed it for the first time and took some pics. Need to post them. Also drove it to work last Friday for the first time. Had no problems getting to work and back. I did notice a squeak in the back when first starting to move th...

Randolph 9/4/05
There is a one day meet at Randolph on Sunday 9/4. I am thinking seriously about it, even though the last one was not too great.
I am also thinking about Corvettes at Carlisle 8/26-28. I would like to go but it is just a little too close to get set up.

Update: I fixed the switch on the driver door that turns on the courtesy light. It just needed cleaned – too bad I bought a new one. I chose not to install it since the end was plastic and did not look like the original. I also installed the support springs for the headlights – replacing three broke...
