    1983 T Type running again

    I finally had a chance to work on the TType. Had it hauled to my shop, cleaned up 14 years worth of leaves and acorns from the engine bay and it started like I parked it yesterday. I am pleasantly surprised at how nominal the actual rust is. Alot of surface, but not much worse than that and...

    Looking for a 78-80 turbo hood

    I apologize for not being back on for a bit, life gets hectic at times. I have not been "home" since I mentioned it due to work, but there is a chance I'll be there this week helping my brother catch up on some body work. He keeps forgetting to look for it (I'm almost positive I hung it up in...

    Looking for a 78-80 turbo hood

    I'll have to look in the shop back home and see if it's still there. If it is, I'll shoot you a price and a pic. Won't be a lot if you want it. Might be a couple days before I can get out there but I'll try getting someone there to check on it too. If it didn't get scrapped, it'll be easy to...

    Looking for a 78-80 turbo hood

    I may have a hood, but I'm in KY. I am near where the GS nats are held in BG. It has a small dent, but not on the scoop. The hood is easily repairable if I can find it.

    Parts have to go. I lost my shop!

    That's a great offer, but I can't spend anything at the moment unfortunately. I'm pretty much frozen for the next year or at least until I get a significant chunk payed on a recent expense. Where are you thinking about moving to?

    Parts have to go. I lost my shop!

    Sorry to hear about your shop Charlie. Wish I wasn't broke at the moment or I'd take an intake off your hands.

    Ebay Turbo's?

    HOT ROD has a build up with the an ebay 76mm turbo on a GM 5.3, a 2V PI 4.6 and a 5.7 Hemi, each high mileage out of a junkyard. Each had great initial results, but they did clarify that they are unsure of the durability of the cheap turbos. They did reuse the same turbo for each of the...

    Here's a cheap boost gauge that you can pick up for 12 to 15 bucks with coupons. I did a quick search and found a thread on volvospeed that confirms it reads accurate side by side with an autometer. I'm sure it's not the best and the nitrous logo is cheesy, but would be better than nothing for...

    Just Beautiful....

    I had an 84 Regal limited that had them. They were very cool, especially back then. Come to think of it, my 84 was cool...4.1 L with quad on it. If I still had it, I'd donate the parts, but it's gone. I've used pieces of it on my TType and my GN and that was about all that was left when I...

    my 80 regal limited

    Isn't this kjetil's car in Norway? Your interior looks very good with the matching bar Matt. Good luck on your project futten. 2.41 is more economical, slower acceleration and less revs at speed.

    Finally got some time.

    I hear you about quick weather changes. Our motto here is if you don't like the weather, give it a minute. Great thread Charlie!

    Finally got some time.

    Looking good Charlie. There are alot of lines that come together in that part of the quarter, but you'll get it right. I didn't realize you were going to fix the 83 as well. That's cool using it as a test car and daily driver. Going to be a good thread. Good luck and keep it up.

    GS NATS in BG

    That sounds like something I'd do, then realize what I'd done. I hate to think how bad of shape the tank on the T is as long as it's sat. Need a new one I'm sure.

    GS NATS in BG

    I like the Sanford and Son sign. I tend to whistle the theme music during quizzes. Occasionally, someone recognizes it, but not often. I managed to get out in the garage today, but only to fix my lawn mower. I'll at least get to take the GN, but the TType won't make it this year since I had...

    GS NATS in BG

    That sounds great! I'd like to have a lift in my brother's shop one day. We keep planning an addition and that's definitely on the wish list.

    GS NATS in BG

    Hey Charlie, Hope the shop is coming along ok. Maybe see you in BG in 2011 with the 82?

    GS NATS in BG

    Yeah, Yeah, we feel the same way about WV:rolleyes:. Seriously though, KY is a very car friendly state. Tons of cruise-ins, racetracks...the Vette plant/museum is 5 min from the track in BG. There are about a billion restaurants and Mammoth Cave is a great place to drive through, just don't...
