Like I said, it's no longer for sale but to answer the questions, the exterior pics were taken last Thursday. The interior pics are some months old but nothing has changed since the door panels are still off awaiting money to have the interior dew sweeps replaced. I was also going to have the...

Not sold but no longer for sale, I'm going to keep it.

OK the weather is even worse today than yesterday, with steadier rain, so no new pics today. I'll put the ones I have on photobucket and we'll see how long the bandwidth lasts. And what it looked like when I got it

No liens. The certified copy is what you get if you lose the original "blue" title and request a replacement. No accidents and no damage that would indicate any collision damage. Found a 102K pic of the interior. The door panels are off in the pic for dew sweep replacement. Outers have been...

I'll get more pics tomorrow and email them. There's a 107.4kb image size limit here and the others I took today ran 109-111K in 640x480. This was a spur of the moment thing. Up until this afternoon I was planning on taking the car, but then decided it would make life a bit easier if I went ahead...

Needs work of course. The car is all stock. I had it repainted the original color Summer of 2007 due to sun bleached paint with some surface rust on the tops. Car was originally out of Longview TX. Anyway I ran out of money at that point and it's been in the garage since. Moving several states...

Another Powerlogger vote. Direct Scan is ok but it's a pain unless you already have a legacy laptop. In good working order. With a battery that lasts more than 5 minutes lol. One thing Powerlogger does better is accept inputs from outside sources for the datalog. This means that you can...

FWIW, I was patrolling some brand F forums the other day and some well known Names in engine building were complaining that they couldn't keep lobes on the flat tappet cams they were using for a competition, either. So apparently it's not just Buicks. As regards roller cam noise, there are...

That's what the electric power is for. It runs a heater element that heats a bimetal spring. The spring uncoils as it warms and that's what opens the choke. Without the power it just doesn't get hot enough. If there is power then the heater element probably fried and the choke thermostat would...

Like as not, it's the choke. The electrical connector likes to break and lose contact. Usually has an Oil/Choke light at the same time. Check the choke connector to see that it's on. If it is then get it running and after a couple of minutes look at the choke plate. It should be vertical. If...

I'll join the crowd and throw my hat in the ring too!

Email on the way!

Too cool. I am SOO there! :D Seriously, that's very good to know.

I attended the NMRA event at BG at the beginning of October. It took us an hour to get in on Friday, and another hour sitting in line on Saturday. It was decided that we won't be going back to that event because of long waits like that. I may go to other events but they'll be smaller. Last...
