    Power Antenna replacement - How to

    That is a great write-up. We had a retired GM mechanic here locally that found his niche in replacing all the 80s GM power antennas that failed. You would bring your car to his shop. You would go to the waiting room. He would go to work. There were no windows. He would already have a...

    Dropping tank, removing sender...How easy/hard?

    That IS a slick idea. I never would have thought of that. I was given a hand pump for tasks like that. But now I'm left wondering how the guy figured that out by accident... :unsure:

    Dropping tank, removing sender...How easy/hard?

    Ditto on what everyone else has said. But a few more things.... I've dropped and reinstalled my wagon tank three times over the course of a few months, all by myself and with it at various levels of "fullness." Once the tank was almost completely full. I found the trickiest part was getting...

    Huge Fan! Yes, Johnny had a much better voice than Bruce. But Bruce wrote most all of Johnny's best songs. I love the horn section too. There's a local cover band here in Cleveland called The Stone Pony Band. They alternate between covering Bruce and Johnny for a night of both... complete...

    What did you do to your non-G body project today? [2018]

    Started using my 68 Cougar today for storing this year's Christmas presents. Nobody things to look inside the cars that are parked for the winter. :whistle:

    What did you buy for your G body today? [2016-2018]

    I spent 4 months without a working gas gauge. Coupe senders do not work in wagon tanks. Actually, they will, but the gauge will never read right because the tank is totally different. That is why I mentioned in Cali's "build" thread to not be fooled with the false sense of security that Rock...

    CaliWagon83 finally getting his hands dirty!

    Ha! I was going to mention that he forgot to put his fitting on BEFORE he did the flare. Certainly EVERYBODY'S done that at least once... right? But through the wonders of editing, the fitting was there at the end. I know how that happened too... 'cause I do video editing. And to disclose...

    Even though I'm older than most of you here, I don't mind some of the newer stuff. This band is probably my favorite of what I'd consider a "newer" band. And they've even been around for nearly two decades now.

    Bruce!!!!! Before he went off without the E Street Band, then brought them back. His shows haven't been the epic events they used to be since then. He used to tell the best stories, either true or made up on the spot.... This is a great example from right here on the Northcoast 1978...

    What did you do to your G-Body today? [2011-2018]

    No... you have to flip the lid for that.

    CaliWagon83 finally getting his hands dirty!

    If you end up swapping the fuel tank, be grateful the tank is relatively cheap. Beware of the sender. It's made of unobtanium... as in...... OBSOLETE! I finally found a NOS one online and the guy knew what he had and bent me over for it.

    What did you do to your G-Body today? [2011-2018]

    So THAT'S what it's supposed to look like underhood. Mine already had the SBC half-assed swapped in and all the wiring and plumbing screwed up.

    What did you do to your G-Body today? [2011-2018]

    Yesterday got it up in the air and sprayed the whole underside with oil via my undercoating gun. Let is sit outside overnight to drip the excess onto the gravel in the shop lot. Fired it up today and let it run for about 20 minutes to burn the oil off the exhaust and put it in the garage...

    More like what did it do to ME!! It embarrassed me in front of a large group of people. :( The whole family loaded up to go cut down our traditional Christmas Tree. All couldn't have been better. Beautiful weather, festive mood, the whole works..... We cut our tree and had it successfully...
