What did you do to your g-body today 2025 Edition!

Added a '67 Camaro center consol in the Malibu. I'm still waiting to get some table time at work so I can cut an adapter plate to raise up the shifter bezel a little. B&M says the QuickSilver Shifter won't fit a '67 Camaro. Everything fits everything if you want it to.

Couldn't get it to idle on its own. So Pulled the distributor and set initial timing at 10 and now its purring...

Started off the year with a bit of a struggle. Work seems to be taking over all my time and when I am home I’m too busy with other things. I didn’t make my goal as planned but have made a couple steps forward and a couple backwards.
I got some extra insulation on the roof before putting the headliner in.
I tried getting the dash in but looks like I’ll have to pull it back out.
It wasn’t mentioned in the Vintage Air instructions but the dash frame near the glove box will need to be notched a little to clear the bigger version of their kit.


Today I finally got the -10 hose and fittings along with the rest of the -8 fittings I needed. I mounted the fuel filter along with making the all the lines from the filter to the rail and started on the return to the surge tank. I just need to decide where I will be putting ethanol content sensor so I can finish that up.
Tomorrow I’ll drop the tank to make the feed and return from the main tank to the surge along with the feed from the surge to the filter.


Also got the back news that the front wheels won’t be in for possibly another 90-120 days.
Not to happy since initially was told they would be in mid-Jan. They did say I’ll be getting a decent discount because of the delay. I was however able to get a loaner wheel in the same size and specs for mock up.
It’s not the same color mine are but still looks pretty good.

Started fitting the GTO seats in. Damn thing is heavy.. so i took off the rails driver side almost done.. I'll fine tune with seats on once brackets are done.. I'll post more specific pics on what i did once done.some hacking and cutting so far.. nothing post worthy.

Some new tools for the spring

New tools always make for a good day. I recognize the two extensions from another thread here and believe there was interest in how well they work. I'd sure like to know if the orange Pro is worth a try if you don't mind reviewing it.

Tested it with my quads snow plow, easy access places, with hand tool and that electric ratchet, seems to working nicely, opens nuts easy , same torque as straight with ratchet , waiting to get working it with the car

Finished up the bracketry for driver seat.. there crude since I wanted to make sure they would fit...and they do great.. doors and console clear just fine..Ill be using these as templates to transfet over to new prettier sturdier ones..once both seats are done I'll do a proper thread showing what was required.

got the block prepped today, hoping to have everything prepped,remasked and some epoxy on it tommrow.I'm trying a different one than i'm used to using that has a large coat/topcoat time but it has a really good track record so I'm intrigued.

Found out why the electroluminescent panel had dark spots




If anyone has a spare unit, one that uses the 110v inverter box (no bulbs), let me know. It's either that or rig up some stuff by cutting up electroluminescent panels from Amazon.
