Typically, you would suspect that Detroit engineers designed the cars handling to be fairly balanced between oversteer and understeer, even if the roll was high and limits low. Adding a rear bar would reasonably necessitate adding a bit larger front bar to keep that balance and not increase...

Great video.:thumbsup:

It’s definitely a wiggle in adjustment to get it at the height you want and both sides sitting the same.

Now that looks nice. May be a 361 motor, I didn’t see any mention of a 361 or 383.

If a buyer can do all the work including body and paint they can have a real nice car for a reasonable cash outlay on the car. Body and paint costs have just gotten too high for taking on something like that with the intention of farming out all the work and staying above water.

Yes, 600 Holley and AFB carbs on the duals and 780 Holley and AFB on the singles.

I have 4 cars of various makes - all big engines. Two have dual 4bbl carbs and two have single 4bbl carbs. I don’t keep accurate mpg records but my impression from how often I need to put gas in them and how fast the fuel gauge falls, tells me that the dual 4 bbl cars seem to get better gas...

I think Mexico is migrating to here.

Used the wife to guide it in on one side and to sit on the brackets. Then she held it in place while I threaded in a couple of bolts.

As a jogger for 43 years I’ve had my share of loose dog experiences. The damn, happy ankle biters I think are the worse. A lady unloading groceries in her garage let her little ball of fury out who attacked as I jogged by. I shoo’d him off a couple of times but he was getting so close I...

I’ve got a part from another Forum member coming through USPS to me and mailed on 4 March. It’s apparently in that stage of sitting somewhere and completely ignored or lost. Tracking shows it as - Apr 9, 2024, Moving thru Network. In transit to next facility. Arriving Late. No...

I have that happen with all the delivery services. If I had to pick the worst of the 3 it would be FedEx but I stopped using them a couple years ago. I’ve had stuff go stalled for weeks and even reported as missing by the service, only to show up unannounced a week or two later. We have...

The worst problem I’ve had with polishing aluminum trim are pits. Some are more like mini craters. I once polished out all the interior aluminum window trim for a friends 63 427 Galaxie and the trim was pitted up like a piece of rusted steel. I would have had to grind it down to paper...

Being a long time old Corvette owner, I see the subject of a color change bring up heated discussions over on the Corvette forums all the time. A C2 with a color change is just about the worst thing you could be done to hurt a cars value in their minds. I’m not that much of a purist and didn’t...
