    It's probably not even noticeable in the photo but all of the steering gear cover bolts have the Saginaw "S" logo. Took three gears to get seven bolts. The rebuilders just use what ever bolt they pick out of the box or whatever bolt is easy to get their mitts on. The devils in the details. All...

    So once I get this thing as a roller, I can drop the body back on. Hallelujah, noticeable progress.

    Fuel lines on this thing have been a lot of work. I did buy brake lines from a company that will remain unnamed and I'm not sure I'll ever do that again. I ended up bending and rebending the stuff to get what I wanted. In the end, it's not as pretty as I'd like but then again, nobody's ever...

    So I thought I'd throw some more photos on since this is what I use instead of a bad memory. Maybe someone else needs some reference, I've sure used a bunch from this and other sites. Hard to believe there's no assembly manual for these cars yet. Had a friend of mine in engineering try to see if...

    Thanks for the comments. Just trying to keep up with you'all. I'll tell you a little more about my sending unit when I find out if it's going to work or not. I mean, it’ll work but I don’t know what the starvation factor will be on hard launches. The wagon tank has a slosh panel but I don't...

    I'm "Old School" dude. No hydraulic clutches for me. Need to have that mechanical feel under my left heel. I can't even imagine what it would feel like to powershift with a squish clutch. I envision my foot to the flloor, making that first to second gear shift and then, like a kid peeing the...

    Well, it's either work on the car or post about working on the car. I travel every week and typically run off without my photos so I can't very well post them if I don't have them with me. Really been focused on getting the chassis on it's own four wheels, albeit not the wheels I'll be using...

    And a couple more, one of the interior with the center console test fit and the other of the temporary body drop on the original chassis. This is where I discovered a person could build a room addition in the space between the top of the test tire and the body. That ain't gonna fly, so I got way...

    Thank you for the kind words gents. I only get to work on the car about one day a week, for the most part, that's Saturday. Plan to put in a couple solid weeks over Christmas and at least get the chassis rolling. Had I not ended up building two different chassis's, I probably would have been...

    I've been working on this Malibu wagon on and off for several years now. It started out inocently enough as a dailey driver with some extra beans to scare the neighbor kids in their little tuner mobiles. Wasn't too long before the thing started to take on a life of its own. Seems after several...
