    Brake location on a 8.5 rear end

    I used the LS Camaro brackets, which mount the calipers to the rear, as I could see that there would be a space issue if I tried to mount the calipers toward the front. Are the brackets actually welded on? If not, you coul swap them side to side. If welded, you might be able to ge tthem off...

    GBOTM November '18 - "Sticker Shock"

    Great minds think alike! I was disappointed to learn that the Dazzler wheels were only available in 5x4.75". In addition to my 79 Malibu, I also own a 91 Olds Custom Cruiser wagon. I was thinking of making it into a "Hurst Olds tribute car", but would need the wheels in 5x5" for it... I have a...

    Who needs a new 442/ H/O project?

    The next one isn't much of a project at all, but anyone who has restored a car knows that they would probably be money ahead with this one, especially with G bodys, being they aren't very well supported in the aftermarket, like a Mustang, Camaro or Chevelle. It looks to me like it needs a paint...

    Who needs a new 442/ H/O project?

    The GBOTM contest entries got me reminiscing about a black 79 H/O I passed on (regrettably) around twenty years ago. I got to poking around on the internet using Search Tempest to see what would come up. There was nothing in my area, but I came across a few... Here is the first one...

    That is one sweet H/O! They get/ got no love for years, including from me, even though i am a G body guy, having owned four over the years (84 Regal, 81 Malibu wagon in the past), and two currently (79 Malibu since 97 and 83 Malibu wagon since this Spring.). I am still kicking myself for passing...

    Predicting the future....

    Unfortunately, as of 2018, the Accord coupe is dead, though... First it was the wagon, now all we are left with is the four door sedan. (My wife has a 2017 Accord hybrid sedan. BORING! My daily driver is a 2016 Malibu 2.0 turbo. Not much more interesting, but it's something!

    How do I know if a Cutlass came with a factory 4 speed

    I assume that by "but still has the 4 speed linkage", you mean that it still has the clutch pedal and related linkage (?)

    Escape From the Prison Planet

    I have a soft spot for El Caminos...My first car was a le mans blue 71 EC. I started working on it when I was 13 in 1984. I bought it for $300 with money from doing odd jobs. It wasn;t running due to a stripped nylon cam gear. My uncle dad and brothers helped me swap in a Crane 350/300 blueprint...
