    Dash Cap??

    I have one in my Monte. It looks good and is much better than the cracktastic factory dash, but now that I've fully assembled the car, I don't think I'd do it again. These are vacuformed copies, and all of the openings on mine are slightly smaller than the factory dash. I thought I had trimmed...

    Space City 1982 GP Build

    I'm only working two days a week now, but I can't drag my butt out to the shop to do anything. I've been putting off the radio install on the Monte for nearly two years now!

    Sean's 78 Camaro Z28

    Do you remember how spendy is was? I'm getting tired of buying batteries. I joke that my Ninja gets 2 rides per battery (because I generally ride once a year!)

    I'm a rep stock guy, so for me I'd have to stick to the factory setup, just on the back of the lid and around the taillights. But that's just because that's the way I always remember them being. And I worked with an absolute jerk in the 90's who two toned his white 80 with dark blue in a very...

    I wonder if you can find a shop that can be swayed by looking at your post counts on this build and the Juggernaut thread. You've obviously got a lot of pull on this site, and it seems a lot of guys are local to you. We also build movie car replicas, and when we need something done, we try and...

    Texas82GP's Roadmaster

    Man, that thing is so clean, Jared! You've motivated me to get back on my 91 Caprice wagon that I was fighting last year. It's had a new fuel pump, filter, oil pressure sender, fuel pump relay and ECM, and still it fires off starting fluid but won't run on its own. I finally pushed it off the...

    How Do You Listen To Your Tunes In Your G

    I have that Vintage Air unit in my 73 El Camino, and I did the same thing with the controls.

    How Do You Listen To Your Tunes In Your G

    I have a restored Corvette digital display cassette player that will eventually get installed (dual shaft style in my 79), but currently I'm using a good Bluetooth speaker and streaming Sirius and Pandora off my phone as I drive. I have several old cars that I switch between as drivers, and...

    I had that tool in my 80 Monte Carlo. I'm sure its still in the glovebox, since the guy I sold it to in 1993 immediately parked it in a field and never touched it again. That is if it hasn't rusted away by now.

    78 Monte Bumper Options

    You might be able to do it on the back with a Malibu bumper, but the elaborate shape of the front one would be tough without custom work. Are the moldings the problem or do you just prefer steel bumpers? There are aftermarket moldings that will work, even though they are not technically correct.
