What did you buy for your G body today? [2021]

Kool. The acid test will be your first hot lap or short drive from wherever to wherever else. Do that and again, stick a piece of cardboard under the car at the rear end to see if your drip shows up. No news is good news.

Sometimes just because it looks okay...

The factory axles are 40 years old... we should all expect to replace them.

WHOA!!! Watch the read out change like a strobe light. Run out is so visible that even my mark One mod 1 eyeballs can track it. Great video.

Major score! Hood, rear bumper, and dash surround for a TOTAL of $95!!! Going back tomorrow for the bumper, ran out of time.

So after a few days, of new axle seal and various drives around town, no leak. Nice and dry brake disk. No runs no drips no errors. I have no idea why, I didn't do anything different from all the times I've done it before. Anyway on to the next project. If it starts to leak, I will pull out pistol and shoot it between the eyes (Headlights) 🙂

This popped up on one of my saved searches on eBay last weekend, hit the buy it now and grabbed it. The price was right. NOS headlight bezel for my 80' Supreme. Just need to find the other side now, hopefully one will pop up soon, been looking for quite a while now.



Made this up on Sunday afternoon. My daughter has one of those Cricut machines that can cut just about anything in vinyl, card stock etc. Made up the decals and I used glass etching compound to fill in the design.

Nice! I would suggest hitting that with some dawn soap and warm water first before roughing it up with anything. That sheen may be from the releasing agent used in the mold that pressed these. Theres an oil that is used so the new plastic pieces dont stick to the mold template and it causes it to appear shiny after some time.
