so on friday i blew my rear messing arround. luckily i had a 373 posi out of a nother cutlass lying arround. so i did the swap this weekend. it basically took 2 days, and it wasnt too much of a headache. the new rear feels real nice, heres some pics. only tore up a few things, not...

i put in HID lights a while ago using the h4 conversion kit, and everything had been working fine. when i re-did teh car i replaced the wiper/turn signal switch and i think it was a little messed up becuase the only way i could use the wipers was using the top button, and the brights were...

ok, so ive been driving my cutlass for months now with no seatbelts, and it suddenly hit me, i should probably get some. so what have you guys done for seatbelts. i remember looking for a pair in black but they were hard to find. ive also seen the 3 or 4 point universal ones which i like, but...

okay, so my cutlass needs new paint. i just ordered a set-up of soft 8's with white lettered tires. im strongly considering a satin black paint job. not too flat, but not too glossy at all. ive searched everywhere and this is the best paint job i could find on an old car. im also planning on...

ok, so maybe some people have already tried this maybe not, im not the first to think it and probably not the first to do it. i think the soft 8's on the grand national in fast and the furious looked badass. their, cheap wheels so here it goes. im gunna go with 4 soft 8's in black, and im...

Well after all of the work, the cutlass is running pretty well. fluids are all good, except for a transmission fluid leak, i was over full but it stopped and im at add quart, maybe it was over flowing? and theres also a car problem, theres quite a cough in the pedal, and if i punch it it will pop...

okay, so i think im having either a cooling problem or a thermostat problem in my 83 cutlass w/ a SBC. i was cruising on the highway, and at 1 point the water temp started to slowly rise to about 210+. i had to slow down and move over into the slow lane to let it cool down a bit, which is...
