    Build Thread-85 Cutlass Brougham-New Pics Added!

    Hey man, it has been a while since I last logged on here. I was just cruising through your journal here and was impressed with your progress. Glad to see you working on it, my Regal has sat largely untouched for the last eight months or so (it has been a rough year). You ride is looking good...

    My 1983 Regal *10/13/08* The car is Gone! Pix!

    Cruising through this topic, I couldn't find you mentioning weather you would keep the vinyl top or not. Either way, I think that root beer color or something close (I'm diggin' your idea of a true copper), would look sic. One of my buddies is trying to get me to paint my 81 Regal bright red...

    double hump crossmember help

    summit's crossmember is supposed to fit all G-bodies, and if you have an earlier G-body, they also sell a frame rail extension kit. If you look in their recent catalog, the double hump crossmember is on page 222, and the pre-84 frame extentions are right below it. Summit makes no distinction...

    Which Car is Least "Manly"?

    just an FYI, be careful with the late model Probe Gts guys, I'm not a fan by any means, but there is a lot of stuff available for the high end performance guys for these cars. They get fast, and you will think that what you hear is little more than just an exhaust.

    Which Car is Least "Manly"?

    The only saving grace of the Miata is that it is rear wheel drive, if it was not for that, there would be no more gay of a car. In light of the rear wheel drive Miata, I voted for they WAY too gay Beetle (not just the new one, but any of the old ones too). NOTHING redeaming here. 100% daddy's...

    I had to post this, feel free to post some good stories.

    it is always great when you can make some punk look retarted in front of his girlfriend, and I love the honda smashing into the cop car, pure classic. I have so many stories like this as I have been driving my Camaro now for the better part of ten years. I actually had a 16 year old kid tell...

    I had to post this, feel free to post some good stories.

    wtf, smart car? guess I dont get it. Once they start getting computers in them, I seldom pay any attention. I was sitting at a stoplight waiting to cross a major highway on my way home one night in my 79 Camaro (sorry, the Regal doesn't run yet). As I started to cross with a green light...

    hoods interchange

    I am looking at some serious hood clearance problems with the 350 going into my 81 Regal. I cannot find any aftermarket cowl hoods to fit, but I have noticed that the malibu/el camino hoods are similarly shaped. Anyone know if they will work? I've got some fiberglass ideas, but as involved as...

    What should I u-pull?

    Yes, always a posi rear is a great thing to find, also try other el caminos as well. The hydroboost is something even I haven't thought to find before, but a worthwhile venture. Whenever I go to junkyards I like to find any type of trim (both interior or exterior), that I can in good shape...

    Top 10 ways to tell it's out of control

    Ha ha ha! that sounds just like all my old bachler pads! I used to use bucket seats from various Camaros as furniture, and two 350 blocks held up a piece of particle board for a coffee/dinner table. A 454 block always held the TV (i've aquired many DVDs). I married the only girlfriend I ever...

    Top 10 ways to tell it's out of control

    Since this list was a generic thing that some friends and I came up with, I will show you how it breaks down for me. !. this is the one I can't say for me. My wife is very supportive of my addiction, in fact she loves it and has a project/toy of her own and wants more, (her list is just as...

    Video of the Summer of 2007 work on my Monte

    Yeah, that's not to bad at all, guess I will have to just pick up a pair and try them for myself. I saw some of the you-tube vids too, but everything always sounds different in real life. Still haven't heard them yet in person.

    Need some good sources please....

    thanks for the info guys, good sites that will be useful. Much appreciated. You know, I really don't want to debate F-body vs G-body. I have been infatuated with F-bodies since I was old enough to recognize shapes, and I know the extensive aftermarket that supports all four generations very...

    B&m shifter with stock GM cable. Will it work?

    Unless you can find a used cable that is in good condition, you are pretty much stuck with the B&M cable. You should be able to get a kit that has the bracket and cable together from Summit, cant remember the part number and don't have a cataloge handy, sorry. It is always worth a walk down...

    1. Your girlfriend or wife has jealous issues with your car. 2. A search of your bathroom closet reveals one playboy and 7,348,000 car magazines. 3. The kitchen cabinets contain: a Holley 4150, a pair of wire cutters, three Hot Wheels, a hand written list of ways to lighten your G-body...

    Back in the game.....need some sources!!!

    Hey Ritter, I got a buddy up here in Northern California trying to unload a really sweet, built, and clean Ford 9" for about $400. Eaton locker, 5.3something (I think) gears, and mounts for wilwood discs. It is currently set up for a 1/2 ton Chevy 2x right now, but that is easily changed...
