    Craigslist GP

    http://gulfport.craigslist.org/cto/5566784235.html Said he'd take $1000. It's about an hour from the house, haven't seen it yet and afraid if I did, I'd have to bring it home. If only I wasn't knee deep in another project... Wife limits me to one, sometimes less! haha

    New project Monte

    I've been away from the forum awhile since I sold my Regal project before I even started it. Thought I'd share the latest member of our fam. Not an 80s but still. I pulled this out of a backyard 300 miles from my house. This is my wife's favorite muscle car so I'll be putting it together for...

    My $350 '84 Regal *Need motivation*

    So I bought this car a few weeks ago, no rust on the frame, straight body, good floors, all the glass is good. There are small rust holes on either side from the vinyl top I'm not thrilled about, but other than that, very little surface rust. I'm really glad the frame and body are in very...

    **UPDATE**Going to look at THIS Regal tomorrow.

    http://jackson.craigslist.org/cto/3046543142.html Says he'll take $400 for the car minus motor and trans. Says the body is super straight and there is no rust on the car. Only thing I'm not crazy about is the vinyl top. Scared of pulling it off (never done it before) and what might be under...

    Another question

    I hate to be the guy that asks the what cam to use, what headers to use, what wheels to use, but I have one and don't feel like searching it and I'd rather get feedback from y'all. I have a sbc ready to go, but I'm about to take it out of my car and put it in the garage for about a year. I...

    .060 motor

    Would a .060 chevy motor be a bad idea for a street motor? Selling my race car without the motor and I'm thinking about using it in a street car. I'd prefer not to use an old racing motor, but since I have it, and it makes good power.... The motor is stock bottom end, has a Comp cam (can't...

    What's the reasons for building a Chevy 377?

    Torque? This may be a stupid question. If I'm not mistaken, to make a 383 stroker, you take a 350 block and use a 400 crank, and a lot of machine work. But for a 377, you destroke a 400, using a 350 crank. Just curious why you would want to destroke a 400. What advantage would you get with a...

    Anybody watching the Barrett-Shelby-Jackson?

    I know money is nothing to the majority of the bidders, but you think some of them, after bringing their car home, look at it, and say, "You know, maybe I shouldn't have paid $350K for it!"

    Battery draining question..need help

    My wife's battery keeps draining in her van if she doesn't drive it everyday. It's a 2006 Dodge Grand Caravan, and apparently these van's are known for having this problem. I'm told that something that stays on after the key is out, is the problem. I was also told to pull fuses and figure out...
