    87 Regal Part Out Prices

    Does anybody have some sort of pricing list for what an 85-87 Regal would bring if I parted it out? I picked up a complete car yesterday, 87 NA Regal 3.8, body isn't too bad but it has title issues and I don't think its worth fixing. I was going to keep it around until I'm finished with my 85...

    Maroon bucket seats and center console for G-body

    I have a pair of maroon bucket seats and center console originally from an 85 Cutlass Salon that are in good shape for their age. I pulled these seats out of the car about 25 years ago and used them for a few years in my 85 Regal, but I've switched back to the bench seat setup for the original...

    Advise for a LT1 build

    I picked up a 97 Z28 LT1 A4 that needed work over the summer for cheap, fixed it, and have been driving it the last few months. Never owned a 4th gen F-body, it's kinda grown on me and its a fun car in the summer. The car only has 111k on it, and is pretty clean and runs good now. Lately I've...

    Coil Pack

    I think I'm due for a new coil pack after (14) years. My car is basically stock with a Delco coil on it right now. It's falling on its face under boost, plug wires check out and plugs looked good. I'm staying clear of the Autozone stuff, is the Accel coil pack from Jeg's a better setup than the...

    Looking for a 73-87 Chevy / GMC rust / dent free truck bed

    Any suggestions where to find a decent bed for a 73-87 Chevy/GMC 3/4 truck? I'm in Indiana and could drive a few hours, but would rather have it shipped if possible. The truck is an 85 with the 8' bed with dual tanks that's rust free, but beat up all over. I was going to put in the patch panels...

    Chevy Vortec 350 exhaust question

    My tow vehicle (97 Chevy Tahoe 5.7 4wd w/146k) lost half of its exhaust on the road this weekend. I've had this truck for over 9 years now and would like a little more towing power out of it. Looking at the shorty headers and off road pipe kits & cat back systems to replace what's left....is...

    Looking at a Honda RC51

    Found a nice looking 2000 RC51 for sale, considering picking it up. Currently have a cruiser bike (plan to keep), but want something a little more exciting to ride from time to time. I love the sound of these bikes, but I've also heard they are better track bikes than street bikes. Not planning...

    Anyone camp @ Beech Bend

    Was looking to drive a Class A rv to Bowling Green this year and stay in the park. Assuming other members do this, was wondering if its worth it vs getting a hotel? We have about a (5) hour drive and want to stay a night or two. Didn't know if the campground is a short walk to the track either...

    Alternator & Battery question on 87 GN

    Had my first flatbed ride home with the GN last night (not bad after 12 years of ownership). The car died at a stoplight and wouldn't crank back over, like a dead battery. The volt light didn't come on before either. Got it home late, come home today and the battery is reading 12 volts as-is...

    Gas Tank Filler Neck

    So after getting my 87 GN painted last fall, I am finishing up putting it back together. The old gas tank was leaking, so I ordered a new one from Autozone and had the body man put it in. Just found out last night the license plate holder will not open/close correctly because the filler neck...

    Cleaning Hood Insulation on Turbo Regals

    What's the best way to clean the hood insulation on my GN? It's in good shape, just really dirty. Was considering hosing it down and using the wet/dry shop vac to extract the dirt, then letting it sit in the sun for a day?

    Tire chains / cables suggestions

    I have an 85 Chevy K20 plow truck that works great, but I would like a little more traction with it after getting it stuck plowing tonight. The tires I have on it now are in pretty good shape, but not the best with traction (off of Duramax dually). Instead of looking at different wheels/tires...

    73-87 Chevy/GMC plow trucks

    Anybody have one of these trucks? I'm fitting up a Western plow which came off a F250 to my 85 K20, pretty much everything is different between the (2) trucks. Have the plow frame bolted up to the truck frame, but need to find some pics of how the lower braces tie to the truck frame. Looks...

    Lift kit questions for Chevy Tahoe

    I've had this 97 Chevy Tahoe for almost (8) years now, and would like to do something different with it in the near future. It's really pretty clean and trouble-free for its age, and a great daily driver, but I'd like to try a 4-6" lift kit on it. Not sure what direction I want to take with the...

    My ugly 87 GN going into the body shop

    Well, after (11) years of looking at the factory paint, I've decided this is the summer to do something about it. I started stripping it about (2) weeks ago and dropped it off at the shop today. Shop said I should have it back in a month, but I'm guessing it will be longer as there's a lot of...

    Anybody here into scooters??

    So is anybody here into scooters? I picked up an 2001 Honda Elite S 50cc 2-cycle last fall as a basket case for a winter project. Got it running a few months ago and its suprising how much fun they can be! I'm 34 and thought I wouldn't bother with these things anymore, but there's a following on...
