    Participation

    Guys and gals, I love what we have here. However, I have some big personal problems that I must now work my way through. I put them on hold when my wife was going through her breast cancer. Everything has done very well with her and I could not be more thankful. But I have a mountain of legal...

    Death smell

    I have smelled a smell that is very rare but related to a person decaying from the inside out. What would you say to a family member who recently started to smell that way? This is worse than body odor or bad breath combined, yet it's faint. You have to be close to smell it. Anyone know what...

    Used vehicle prices

    I know the person who purchased this vehicle today (wire on the way): https://rockymountaintruckstop.com/2015-ford-f250sd-lariat-austin-tx-78759/7087684 They paid full sticker of $45,550 for an almost 8 year old truck with ~100,000 miles. Does that seem extraordinarily high? If so I have been...

    40+ MPG in a ‘70’s Maverick with a 302 (5L) and no OD at 70+ MPH.

    I had seen this video series floating around my YouTube feed for the last week or so. At the time I thought: “Yeah right!” It was the most fascinating automotive experiment I have ever witnessed. The guy is smart and talented and I love that he started the project as an April Fools joke...

    Fresh meat!

    As I was scanning YouTube videos this morning, I came across this one. A non Chevelle guy buys a former Mecum Auction car that was cast off by buyer and sitting in a vehicle storage lot for sale. Apparently a very sharp looking car when sold, it has become a bit weathered. It’s always...

    Ideas for a new tool.

    I have five Corvairs. All of them are of unknown pedigree. The ‘61 van has been off the road since 1967. I’m sick of screwing around with half baked setups to start cars and evaluate them. So, I’m thinking of making two things to make the job easier and safer. 1. Remote engine control panel...

    Essential shop supplies

    Almost 5 years ago, I purchased a new house, the one I’m living in now. However, we only moved a bunch of stuff into it in 3 different events, the last of which was about a year ago when we finally occupied the house full time. I have not gotten my shop set up yet and am beginning to do so. I...

    Future Direction of Old Chevelles.

    We just had an awesome announcement about the future of this forum. Thread 'Welcome!' https://oldchevelles.com/index.php?threads/2144/ It just pains me that some are looking wistfully at predecessor websites where most of us came from. I suggest it’s time to close the door on that chapter...

    What is the best engine for my Chevelle?

    I was thinking about putting a 350 Chevy in my Chevelle. I heard a big block or LS motor may be better. Why or why not? This ought to give them something to chew on.

    Nice resto-mod...

    '61 Impala "Double Bubble". One my list of dream cars is a '61 bubble top. white or black with red interior. Any V8 but prefer a stick. But this looks nice to me. Your opinion may vary, and I'm alright with that. :) https://www.motorious.com/articles/handpicked/custom-1961-double-bubble/

    Showing my behind

    I’ve had newer cars with electronic engine controls. I have a question maybe someone has insight upon. My CTSV wagon would just die out when it went to wheelspin. Very unsophisticated. I’ve driven it over my head before and the Stabilitrack just hunkers the car down. Truly amazing. Let’s...

    ZZ Top

    I’m always seeking input. I woke up very early this morning and just started searching for something to watch on Netflix. I didn’t know what I was looking for. I came across a documentary on ZZ Top that was very entertaining. It brought back a lot of visceral memories of listening to their...

    Sheet metal mfgs

    God do I feel guilty for asking this…last time I bought fenders was 2014. I need new front fenders for my 1970 El Camino project. AMD has no listing. I found Dynacorn and Golden Legion. Have plenty of time but trying to go ahead and buy the most expensive parts needed. Dynacorn or Golden Legion?
