What did you buy for your G body today? [2019]

[Flyers9928]

Moved the Cutty to the new house today! Put 8 miles on the car, most miles since 2018. Wanted to move it now as we are supposed to get 10-18 inches of snow Wednesday into Thursday.Half the parts I had in the car and all the parts I had in yard filled my in-laws pickup. I put the header panel and metal bumper back on the front, and the tail lights and plate holder on the back. Ran great, hit 70 a few times while cleaning out the carb with a few WOT pulls. Man I love this car. Can’t wait to get cranking away in the spring.

Wish i could. I know they came on, at least, camaros with 16" wheels. They are plug and play on camaros. Most up here are rusted to the point where they aren't worth rescuing. But, yes they are bolted to and run under the radiator core support in a giant loop. They are used on the return side. One end has an o-ring style ps line fitting and connect to the steering gthe other has a bulge for return line to slip on and held with a crimp band or worm drive clamp. I have not had a chance to try mounting it on the car. Maybe later today. I don't know how much of a temperature change it has. But gm thought it was needed.

Here are some better pics, but none on the car. I do have my cutlass in the shop. Radiator fan and shroud are out but the ps pump and lines are still hooked up. The two mounting clamps are spaced to match up with where the lower shroud bolts attach to the core support. If you were to attach the cooler pipe, it would be in the way of the shroud. The ps gear fitting location would also need to be adjusted, it sits to high. But do-able.
I got this cooler included with the gear from the upull yard. I would not spend money for this particular item. I feel one could be made with be shaping some steel or aluminum fuel line and it would work just as well.

I test fit one to my Monte years ago. It is pretty pointless in 2020 when any other designed cooler would be better.

Pretty sure I tossed it earlier this year.

Broke the bank today...bought a stage II 2004r from Extreme Automatics for my 84' Hurst. Don't want to mess around having one built locally. Want to do it once with no problems.

Was browsing Goodwill and what do you know, car parts? Got a practically brand new wiper switch along with some other random switches and sensors that I won’t use. For $4.50 the switch alone was worth it.

Y'all know there's an updated (2021) version of this thread, right?

Didn't buy anything but figured it wouldn't hurt to start a fresh one.

if you really want a hitch take a look at the hidden hitch, I have one on my GP and upsized the bolts to mount it.

I know it's an older post but I'd like to see the setup on your hidden hitch.
