    Well sold my T Type

    As the title says, someone talked me into selling my 86 T Type. Don't miss it surprisingly, but the dark side of turbo Buicks must really be scrambling my brain because I bought a Japanese car. 😳 Took the money from the T, and turned around and bought this 74 Datsun 260z. I've always wanted a Z...

    This thing is sick

    I don't think I'd pay what he's asking even though I'm sure he has more into it than his asking price. But this thing is so cool! It's like a G body Chevy Nomad. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1741126056154810/permalink/2605019416432132/?sale_post_id=2605019416432132

    I didn't do a search so I'm sorry if this has been covered, this thread can be deleted or moved.

    New to me El Camino

    Well I passed on that roller El Camino I was thinking about, and this one popped up and I jumped on it. It's an 83 and it belonged to a nice older gentleman who was unloading most of his possessions to move down south and retire. It has a kinda poorly done paint job but it looks good from...

    Need a bit of advice/opinions.

    Been a while since I posted on here, how's everyone doing? So I checked out this 87 El Camino roller today that's on Facebook marketplace... The good: It's super solid not a single serious bit of rust that I could find in the body or frame and if it was ever patched before whoever did the...

    Lumina Recaro seats.

    Hey everyone, I came across a set of dirty Recaro seats out of a early 90's Chevy lumina police car. Was wondering if anyone has had these seats and your opinion on them? Will they bolt right in? I know a lot of GM seat mounts are the same so there seems like a good chance they'd bolt right in...
