Check it out. Silver faced gauges...

Have mercy.

I posted a few pics in the Galaxie thread and it got me thinking about how far a few of our projects have come. Let's see some pictures of your long term projects. What you started with and what it looks like "finished" or substantially complete (they are never finished). I'll start. Dad's...

My Grand Prix was originally a diesel car with full gauges. When the previous owner swapped in a small block Chevy, he just made the diesel engine harness work, and taped up all the wires he didn't need. I initially just bobbed those wires and sealed them up. Later when I removed the dash, I...

This is becoming real enough that I thought I'd start a thread to document our move. As many know, I live with my brother, sister-in-law and their two kids. I have for the past thirteen years. We currently live in Spring, Texas, largely because my Dad re-settled there with my brother in 1983...

Anyone seen or heard about this car? New one on me. I thought it was a cool car so I figured I'd post up the video. I'm guessing it has a Camaro T5 in it so my car should end up a lot like it, driving wise, which makes me pretty happy.

Not mine, and not certain this fits G Body but wanted to share in case someone is looking for one.... https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=2&toolid=10001&campid=5335822911&icep_item=333610453988

So I have an irrational fear/aversion to flying. This has long been the case. The last flight I was on was in the summer of 2015 from New York's LaGuardia Airport to Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport. My brother and I had spent the weekend in Cooperstown seeing Craig Biggio of...

This made my morning. Fort Worth, not China.....

I've been a long time customer of Summit Racing. Typically they do a great job but the true test is when something goes wrong. They failed that test miserably with me. At the end of last year we were working on Dad's 62 Ford Galaxie. We thought we were having oil pressure problems, when all...

A little less than two weeks ago the transmission went out on my daily driver. It's a 2008 GMC Sierra 1500, regular cab, short bed, two-wheel drive with a 5.3 and a 4L65E transmission. The 4L65E has been built twice in the last 50k miles. It has some nice goodies inside it but I keep finding...

Opinions Wanted! Guys, The 4L65E in my truck is dead, again. It failed on a wide open throttle 1-2 upshift Wednesday morning, on my way to work. I think it shattered the output shaft, since it is leaking transmission fluid out of the tailhousing seal. It has been built twice in 50k miles...

Is there anyone near Salem, Oregon who would be willing to pick up a part at a local junk yard and ship it to me here in Houston?

I just painted the interior plastic trim panel that goes around the opera window in my GP. It had a weatherstrip on the inside that went around the perimeter of the window. It was in bad shape so I removed it. Now I'm trying to find a replacement. Has anyone replaced theirs? What did you use...

So I bought this rear console mount from Dixie.... My question is, which end of the bracket is the front? The short end or the tall one?

I have a new jacking decal for my GP but don't know where it is supposed to go on the trunk lid. I don't know if the shape of the bottom of the GP is much different than the other coupes. If you guys could post pictures of where your decal is, particularly on an 81-87 GP, I'd appreciate it.

Is there such a thing as a 1" tall GM transmission mount? I've been searching online and haven't come up with anything. I have a T5 behind a SBC using a Camaro bellhousing. I'm using stock SBC motor mounts and a G Force X-member for a 700R4. With this setup, the stock height (2") transmission...

I have a brand new Jeep steering shaft. Summit says it fits 84-94 Cherokee. It seems way too long and doesn't seem to want to telescope. Did I get the wrong one? What does it take to get it to telescope? Here is a look at the new shaft next to the old one...

I have the quarter panel plastic out of my car for my unplanned interior redo. The rear, metal headliner trim had a screw on each end of it. It seems to have some sort of metal clip in the middle. Can anyone tell me how to disengage that clip and/or show me a picture of it? I want to remove the...

Alright guys. I'm going from split bench to buckets and from burgandy to black. I'm looking at buying reproduction, black, bucket seat seatbelts. The only thing that gives me pause is that my brother bought all new belts for his 78 Z28 and he doesn't really like the action on the new shoulder...
