What Did You Do To Your G-Body Today? [2023]

[81cutlass]

Remembered I owned another G body

I donated? this car to a group project back in 2013. Other people donated the engine, a trans, roll cage and paint. Dad and I did the interior panels, wiring, and rear axle.

It has sat since 2015 and collected dust. It has bounced between 3 people since then. I finally got a chance to look at it again. It needs maybe $200 of parts and a weekend and it's a go.

BUT storage is a problem for me :/

Well ended up thrashing for nothing, stuck to its recent name of cant get right. Got the transmission in Friday night, took it for a spin and it still didn't feel right. Figured it would be good enough if I am just putting around to and from the show, they called for rain all day so ended up sleeping in cause I figured the show was a wash. After I get up and realize the forecasters suck again I go to wash the car and go to the show, but come to find out the air ride leveling sensor went nuts again and flipped itself around/bent the rod. Give up on the show and say I'll do it later, come back a while later and fix the rod then decide to wash the car.
Take it for a drive to see if I can get the Sniper to learn to see if it will drive better. No such luck, it was not really wanting to go forward with much ohmf when first starting out and going up hills was a real fight. If you would floor it then it would just back fire and further make driving worse. So ended up calling it for the day with it after grabbing some food. Decided to go drive the GTO to see how that is doing and the constant grinding seemed to be gone but still makes it here and there which is strange that it keeps changing. After sleeping on it I decided to put a new tune into it to see how it would like that, after I took it out seems to be all better. I am starting to think when I put the tune in last time since the screens were all flickering it may not have taken the 30% WOT input. Cause now she seems to be driving much better

Pretty much about what I posted over in the Non-G forum, ........Nothing so far, spent the whole morning doing spreadsheet updates for this years taxes for my accountant to review. This afternoon I plan to watch the snow come down on top of yesterdays layer of freezing rain and ice. Not even thinking of thinking of attempting to go out and try to chisel that crap off the sidewalks. That is what the sun is for.

Besides, the roads are skating rinks where they aren't salted like fish, and my little S-10 has its own layer of ice and crud beneath which it lies.

After I get up and realize the forecasters suck

To be honest, when Mary or Ashley are on talking about the weather I'm not paying attention so I don't know if they're wrong or right.

I think it is graven on stone somewhere that the resume for american weather girls has to include beauty as well as intelligence; or least the ability to read the forecast and point at the right place on the green screen at the same time.

then you haven't been watching the ones from south of the border and South America
the only thing missing now is a chrome pole they can spin around on

Well, she was talking about a heatwave

A WEATHER girl has stripped down to a skimpy orange bikini while presenting a heatwave report. Genesis Tapia, a host on Spanish language news show El Noticioso: La Chica Del Tiempo, stunned viewers…

Only one response for the cast of dollies posted above that I could think of:

For anyone wondering, this is the non-commercial version of this song and never appeared on any of the radio shows of the era for obvious reasons. The lyrics about say it all.

I don't watch the news so I can't blame them even though I am sure they said the same, but my app said it was well over 50% rain all morning meanwhile it turned out to be very nice until almost dark

Got my fuel tank back up and plumbed. Just have to wire the pump. Found a vent for a boat on Amazon and used that for the vent line
