    Fishing 2023

    We had another 40+ fish day at Fishing Lake. A couple of the best Walleye were camera shy, along with a few little ones and 6 Pike, best was maybe 5 pounds for the good old Jack fish.

    Tires for year one rims

    What series are those on the brown car? They remind a lot of the factory 87/88 Oldsmobile aluminum 14" rims. The ones online look more like factory Buick/TA rims.

    1970 Olds Cutlass S Rat Rod Style

    Good thing I checked the door jams and under the hood. There was so much green chunks everywhere, especially in the cowl area for the vents, I would have looked like Kermit the Frog when going down the highway. Shop vac to the rescue. I also lubed all the latches and hinges and rust converter on...

    New in Brazil Chevy small class trucks

    Yeah, probably true. I could have got one or two from a dealer low to mid 40K a year or so ago.

    Fishing 2023

    Our last couple of trips to the Qu'appelle River just before the Round Lake inlet. It has been awhile since I have seen a Sauger, the fat one FYI.

    New in Brazil Chevy small class trucks

    The Dodge, talking Rampage and the Chevy look quite similar. I really like the Maverick, $50K for the top of line model is a super deal compared to the $100+K for a loaded 1/2 ton up here.

    The Buick 3.8 V6 Disected

    As rotten as GM were in those years, chebby flat cams for example, Ford and Dodge made worse vehicles. Their carbs and ignitions were over complicated junk that ran terrible. Like the Olds 260, those 3.8 carbed engines were neutered in every way possible. Are they even 8 to 1 compression? Yeah...

    Fishing 2023

    My personal best is this 30" 10 pound 15 ounce caught a couple of miles from my house at our Melville Reservoir. My Wife caught a 32" 10 and half pounder and our friend Wayne a 34" 11 pound 12 ounce monster, all the same place and year 2016. The best this year is maybe 6 pounds from our local...

    Nice Walleye. I wish I got my coworker to send the pic of his 31.5", 10.5 pound Walleye he caught on Last Mountain Lake. The smallest they caught was 23", the rest were 28" and up. Probably it and Tobin both have chances of a World record Walleye.

    1970 Olds Cutlass S Rat Rod Style

    Well half done. Nothing but a struggle to get this much done. First the filler didn't set up the first time. I put way more hardener than suggested. Apparently two to three times was needed. Then the nozzles on the first two cans I grabbed were plugged. After two more cans applied and next can...

    1970 Olds Cutlass S Rat Rod Style

    Well I just couldn't stand the terrible green paint job I put on my 70S anymore. I am removing most of the paint and treating the rust with rust converter and will bondo the holes with metal reinforced filler. I have a brand new can in the basement, so it is getting used. I have multiple cans of...

    CUTLASS 83-84 Hurst Olds Trunk Spoiler Rubber Plugs- Solved

    Don't forget the heavy duty "Dearborn" 3 spd manual Olds used till 70 when the Muncie version was finally made. Almost more Ford parts fit Olds than chebby parts.

    1970 Olds Cutlass S Rat Rod Style

    No O ring on the base of this water neck, a gasket only. The top section has a O ring to rotate the outlet. If there was one, they never gave me one

    I went slightly heavy with Optimum Grey, had way to many Olds water necks leak.

    Maybe your compression gauge has died? Sorry to see this.

    Dipstick and tube

    Yeah, the Supercars Unlimited one is like that. That Spectre one is the same fits tight, it just needs a little sanding. All the other chrome ones needed the bottom of the tube ground off and they still fit loose in the block. At least the half dozen I have bought.

    HEI Modules - Video

    I never knew there were two 5 pin or that 3 pin. I had a 5 pin from a 82 Olds but I never used the 5th pin, pretty sure it was tge first one that retarded timing. I have used multiple aftermarket 4 pin modules, killed a MSD and two Pertronix Ignitor 3 modules. I used an Accel 7 pin module...
