    Cars and Coffee

    I might come down, although not in the elky since it's all bare metal. I'll either be bringing the kraut if I can afford the gas(highway means i might break into almost double digit mpg instead of the usual 4-6) or the rice. Maybe a Hurst olds will tag along with me

    Lauren engineering.....body kits?

    I talked to them in December when I decided to pull the trigger on bumpers for my Camino via eBay. I asked if the parts would be in stock any time soon. The response was this; Hello, Most likely not. My production is down, the only thing I'll have is the urethane front spoiler After that, no...

    That is quite the handsome devil driving figuring out the shifter in that car

    My long term build

    Sorry for the delay. Here in Massachusetts the state has possibly killed the automotive hobby with the new inspection rules. I haven't really touched my Camino since independence day weekend. I have been enjoying the BMW just in case it is no longer drivable next year when it is up for state...

    My long term build

    I believe they are just +1 18x9.5 rear 18x8 up front. I did roll my rear quarters but I don't think I had to. I would just rather do it now vs after paint. If I did it over I would go with a 20x10 rear wheel. I think it would have fit just fine. At the time I was worried it might rub and I...

    My long term build

    As we move into independence day weekend, it's time for a update. I haven't been doing a ton to the car lately that is picture worthy but I did get it to a point where it now runs and drives. It felt real good to drive it after all this time. I'm running a 4 inch aluminum driveshaft out of a...

    Is your G-body "Old School" or "Restomod"?

    Total restomod here. My car was the best I could do with high school money, now some years later it has a 6.2l ls, umi catalog thrown at it, ls1 camaro brakes... It was old school way back but now I want to be able to hang with the modern muscle.

    Have high powered factory cars ruined hotrodding???

    Technology and knowledge will keep making cars faster and faster. It broke my heart one day to see the all to familiar guy with a muscle car doing under the speed limit. I go to pass him in my bolt on modded Subaru STI without downshifting or switching out of stock tune. I hear him get on it...

    Got some more stuff done. I was away last week and with easter I didn't get a ton done but here is where I am at. I ordered new brakes lines from right stuff and flexable lines from stop tech and got those installed. I also installed the e brake handle and cables I grabbed from a 2000 camaro...

    Sounds like it's time to put my high back monte seats up for sale on cl. I had no idea they went for so much.

    My long term build

    Took a long weekend last week and got a fair amount done. Most of it not anything picture worthy. Securing wires and lines. But first a word of warning on inline tube. They appear to make great stuff and I'm sure most of it is, but God help you if there is a issue. I bought my stuff about a...

    Daughter wrecked her '85 Cutlass Supreme - Need Advice

    I saw this in the email blast we all get. Makes me think I need to venture out of the build forum a bit more often. What a great community there is here!

    My long term build

    Anything I couldn't replace i will hold on to. I might put the original control arms and sway bars up for sale at some point. 3 steps forward 5 back. I put my front brakes on as a dry run without pads. Everything fit pretty good so I got into installing my pre bent brake lines from Inline tube...

    My long term build

    Mine is actually a E21, but the love affair is the same. It was underpowered once but not anymore. Once the camino is done ill probably switch it over to megasquirt, and put coilovers and rear disk brakes on it and switch from the 3.91 rear gears to a more realistic 3.45. 3.91 was fine when it...

    My long term build

    Long time no update. I managed to screw up my back and ankle badly enough that I could do a whole lot. I did go on a parts buying spree though. After many visits to the ciropractor, I'm finally doing OK but I am not moving very fast. But for now, I tightened everything up on the front...

    My long term build

    More forward motion. I started with a truck pedal but I quickly realized that wouldn't work. I got a pedal from a cts-v and repinned the harness to work. But that left fabricating a mounting bracket. I started work on one but while browsing another forum I came across the scarebird bracket...

    My long term build

    Sadly no. That was 35mm days and I had 1 roll of film that had pics of the camino and my nova and I lost it, or it was a roll that got ruined.

    My long term build

    Mine is making the progression from what I thought was a hotrod, to a real hotrod (blown 383 with nitrous) to what will now be a quick comfortable cruiser for my wife and I to run around in.
