well the carb came in yesterday and i brought it to the shop. i have to wait for them to tow it from the muffler shop so they can get the motor running and still hear them selves think. and its been raining all day. it was kinda kewl, i went to the muffler shop and asked if there hireing, they said yeah as long as i know how to change oil :roll: , so i told them that i werkd at the jiffy lube back in 2000, the one right next door to the muffler shop and that i can do brakes and rotors too. i told them i was willing to just come in and sweep the floors and wash car windows and clean the waiting room, just to get a job where im doing something becides wasting away in a chair. so thats whats going on so far. its all just a waiting game now.

does anyone have any stock rear elky springs they'd be willing to part with? imma need some.
I just bought cargo coils for a Wagon for like $50 of rockauto for my El Camino, Running IROC-Z springs in ft from rockauto also rides very nice,also snagged a 34mm ft sway bar from a 93 Firebird formula and rear bar from a Malibu cop car.
It sits nice and doesn't drag over speed bumps and such....235 / 60 / 15 all 4 wheels
