Wow, just wow. My favorite part of going to classic car shows is standing back and appreciating the time thats gone into ALL the restorations, so many stories. Ive done a few cars at 600-800 hrs, so i feel i have some prospective. What you put into garage art is above & beyond.

Sounds like your LONG overdue or some fiscal appreciation. Always amazed how you would be gone for weeks+ between posts. Hard on the family im sure. How are the belts working on that crazy SxS? One of these days i heed to start a thread. Jus too busy to document & post on a new platform.

Thats a GM gas gauge, they read like a politician

Robert, thank you SO much for the detailed stainless trim restoration procedure. Ill be tackling the front & rear window trim on my 67’ vette this weekend in time to ship it back to illinois for installation next weekend. I have an eastwood buffer i used to do the trim on my 68’ C10 restomod...

Seriously? Shelving is shelving at this point. To quote David Frieburger, “ dont get it right, just get it running”. Unless its part of the automatedsystem, its a floor space saver. Tweak it later. Resale lately is a gamble. Before i buy ANYTHING anymore, i ask myself “ does this have ANY value...

In Cali-rodo, we’ve been referring to UTV’s as “ Texas wheelchairs” for over a decade.

It could be worse, you could live in CALI-rodo

Andy, you’re already famous on the inter webs. I’ve checked your thread daily since your last post. At 52, I miss learning about things I’ve never known about. I’m sure I speak for us all when I say... we’re happy to see ANY content your willing to share. Signed, a humble enamel engineer.

It’s amazing to see how other minds work. I’m on the look out for a painted low rider, paint scenes amaze me

That HAS to be the funniest reply I’ve ever read on the GJ. Wife asked me if I was ok. Two thumbs up!

Its interesting how many of the tech awards were handed out by GM & Mopar over the years. Peronally, I've been collecting the Chevrolet version for the past couple of years. I've got 1/2 dz so far but am looking to complete the initial series 1988-1998. If anyone here has one they are looking to...

Love the hard hat PPE, like that’s going to help in the event of...

Every time I see your vette in the back ground it reminds me of my 08’ Jet Stream Blue C6Z. I’m current,y driving a 1 of 202 Nassau blue 99 FRC my parents bought new but we still have JSB car in the family, picked up a 2010 Grand Sport Vert December 21’, mom The coolest 75 year old in the...

It works well but is pretty shocking when they hit a nerve. Wouldn’t call it painful just gets your attention. Kept me working as an EE (enamel engineer) and got me back on my MTB. I finally gave in when I couldn’t lift a beer w/o pain, that was the last straw.

Funny you cant obtain a window sticker for a Camaro but the national Corvette Museum will sell you build sheets & window stickers for Corvettes if youre a member. You can get them laminated, framed & engraved in metal etc. etc.

Welcome to managed health care. The system is set up to delay expensive procedures. On a positive note, I would search out a sports related physical therapist. The visits aren’t fun but it makes you functional once again. It may not be covered under insurance but what your time, health and...

I was just going to ask, Can you still chrome in Cali?

I have to ask, it’s seams like TRUE survivors in the collector car / motorcycle world fetch premiums. Does this hold true for the signs & the collectibles featured in the big party garage?

I couldnt help but think the same thing. I felt like I was back in financial peace university for a moment there. I wouldn’t be surprised if our man mike has taught a class of three over the years. Baby step #7 here and I still do all my own business / personal maintenance & repairs, mow the...

Several US collectors are shipping cars to Europe to be restored, $500-1000 conex beats $2500 cross country here. Labor rates are cheaper too.
