    "the janitor", hell of a guy!!

    I wanted everyone to know what an amazing guy we have here on the forum. So I hope Kevin is okay with me saying this but today he invited me over to his place to so I could get the bench from his 67 and restore it for my 66 el camino. Well first he showed my around his kick ass RV and cars...

    clunk!

    Well I have been a little all over the place with this car. Finally did the LS swap. I have always wanted to do a single turbo on an LS but honestly it runs and drives amazing the way it is as a stock 6.0 so I may just leave it as it sits. It is nice to know though that I have a lot of room...

    Speedhut speed box vss to mechanical

    Yep! I am with you. The cougar will be my daily driver and right now I am doing brakes and some maintenance on that so I have been driving the el camino since I finished the LS swap. Other than the damn gas prices I love it! I find no need for a new car. As long as I can work on them I will...

    Speedhut speed box vss to mechanical

    Since my car is kinda what I consider a "beater" looks good from far little rougher when close I think the DD will be overkill, that is why I am liking the idea of just using the Holley hand held for sensor readings and then my good old mechanical speedo (turned by a GPS motor) haha. We will...

    Speedhut speed box vss to mechanical

    Anyone have any experience with these? I just did my LS swap and thought it would be cool to have the mechanical speedo working. Not sure if it is worth 400 dollars though! https://speedhut.com/accessories/sensors/speed-sensors/speedbox-cable-included-gps-vss-to-mechanical-drive-speed-converter/

    Favorite beer?

    I quit drinking all together last year. I just had enough of it. No regrets and had a lot of fun but it was time to move on! I was lazy, overweight, tired, couldn't sleep at night, the list goes on. Honestly it took almost that year to feel "back to normal"! I now sleep most nights without...

    30-06 springfield ammo

    Hey Florida guys, I have some 30-06 springfield for the garand or m1903. It is PPU, I have 460 rounds in an ammo can. I also have 100 rounds of old surplus ammo. I think it is about 1.50 a round now, I would be willing to sell it cheaper if anyone needs any, local pick up of course or I could...

    steering options?

    Just talked to Lares and they said to call summit and get a replacement since they have a lifetime warranty. Just got off the phone with Summit and they are sending me a new one. Good to know though on the rack and pinion, so I will just stick with my manual box :)

    steering options?

    So guys, hear me out for a sec. My el camino originally had factory PS. I liked it, it was nice but just for simplicity I left it out when I did my LS build. I still like the simplicity of my manual box but the Lares unit I bought from rock auto in just less than a year has a decent amount of...

    Building Our Barndominium

    That’s depressing, can’t rely on anyone. As difficult as it is I agree, sometimes it’s best to just let it go and move on, not worth the time.
