Finally got my door glass out and installed into the Cutlass. Slowly but surely it's looking more like a car.

not necessarily what I did to it, but what it did to me....

went out to get it ( the Chief ) , to bring it up for inspection, and stopped to get gas.... wouldn't start back on it's own, and had to call the wife to come out 20 miles to jump start it off... never did make it out to the inspection..... strike #1...

I didn't do jack sh*t to my G-Body today. It was a nice day so I was on this all day...

Decided that I don't want a 14 bolt in it.

New carrier shims and c-clips on order.

swapped out blocks and ordered a sunnax line to lube valve for the trans. I have the pump out of the 80e waiting for Summit to ship my stuff. They are usually very quick but it hasn't even left their warehouse yet and I ordered it Saturday morning.

I went back to the stock wheels while I plan out the C6 Z06 brake upgrade and needed backspacing to clear them

Got bored over the week, so on the two warm days without rain I painted my wheels and shined my nuts, or as much as I cared to shine em.

Also cleaned up the dust caps:

What the wheels looked like before:

And after:

wheels4.jpg


Paint isn't perfect, need to get a brush to get the top/backside of the lip, and there are a few runs here and there on two of the wheels, and the wheels were gouged from 33 years of hubcaps being on them, but ey. They look better than they did.
