    The Spotted Thread

    Did the Elcos ever come from the factory with the blacked-out grille like that? It looks tough.

    "When maintained properly?" The car is in mint condition with 87k on it, kid. it dosen't get much better than that. Plastic and rubber get brittle after a few decades of high-temp operation. If you've got $180 to piss away on a MAP sensor that really dosen't do much of anything, you're playing...

    '83 Cutlass Cruiser Build Thread

    Oh, good point. I''m lucky my car is triple green, because it would look disgusting with any other color interior.

    Cam's Cutlass Project Thread

    The car's 25 years old. Various sensors are giving up the ghost and I don't see any reason to replace them - most notably the MAP sensor, which does nothing useful save for turning the check engine light on after the brittle plastic housing for the sensor breaks. Primitive electronics, coupled...

    custom442 build thread

    +1 That's totally rice right there. You put a b*st*rd Chevy motor in your car because it was cheaper or whatever but you tried to make it look like an Olds motor... The motor is the best looking part of the build, so far. If that's any indication of how this thing will be put together, I...

    Cam's Cutlass Project Thread

    Been working on some stuff. Here's the first completed project from my sandblasting cabinet: That's right, kids. Time for a coolant flush. I'll be swapping in a 180 degree thermostat while I'm at it, too. The stainless fuel line from Inline Tube didn't fit and had to be bent. This old one...

    Oh, I get it now. Stockholm syndrome. It all makes sense. Anyhow, here's a nice Regal I spotted in Cleveland Heights: It was likely stolen mere moments after this photograph was taken.

    possibly gonna buy this 79 malibu 4 door

    Interior looks pretty clean. I personally like the proportions of the 4-door Malibus - they're one of the few four-door shapes I find attractive. Good find!

    Haha, there it is, the elusive Easter El Camino. :lol: Spent a lot of time hunting for that one...

    I think Hotwheels did a G-body El camino, but I'd be buggered to find one.

    I like the color, reminds me of mine. 8) You can never go wrong with green.

    Holy cow, nice White Lightning "Project in Progress" car! Those were pretty hard to come by when they came out, even the standard issue.

    G-Body Hotwheels

    Thanks for posting that, man. I saw those a few times and didn't pick them up, now I'm regretting it. Do you have a spare or two? I'd be willing to trade... :lol:

    Don't want to be a jerk, but you've got to figure out how to remove the time stamp from your photos. It'll make them look 10x better. You have a great garage and a great car, and your photography skills are better than most. The time stamp just looks hokey IMO.

    G-Body Hotwheels

    I haven't seen that one, but I have several other variations. There's also an electric blue "Cars of The '80s" version out now (I'll post later). In recent years Hot Wheels has also stamped out a Grand Prix stock car and a Monte SS.

    I dig the brown, dude. 8) Glad to see it coming back on a lot of new cars. If I wasn't too tall for the freakin' thing my new car last year would've been a Mocha Steel (read: chocolate brown) Chevy HHR. Sadly, I couldn't see stoplights unless I opened the sunroof. :lol: Ended up with a bright...
