Steve, Long time no hear! I have had aggressive posi's before, oh how I remember the chatter on low-speed corners. Penny has a Tru-Trac on her...
Zig, I knew it was only a matter of time before I would hear from you (although it took longer than I expected). I can send you a picture of the...
Just the 430hp one... a quick look says low-elevens at 120-ish in the quarter mile, assuming a 3,500 truck with driver, IF (there's ALWAYS an IF)...
Changed indeed. My first new truck was a '98 Cheyenne (Silverado was too much $$), 350, AT, and I think she was rated to tow 7,500lbs at 16mpg...
And the LS motor celebrated it's 20th anniversary this year. Interesting that GM offered the "HO327" which was a 327 HP 5.3 Liter some years...
Phil, Thanks for picking up the slack on this board while I am (evidently) too busy doing everything else to make progress! The Jag rear in your...
Andy, I concur. A stiffener behind the opening would probably be a good idea.
Hello all, The seat frame in primer: [ATTACH] and the all-important cupholder. [ATTACH] Time to start rounding up color codes for the interior...
Phil, good call keeping paint stripper and new paint in separate parts of town... A friend of mine was rinsing some stripped-parts, and later in...
I guess at the end of the day, stepping (well) outside your comfort zone is a good thing. If my TIG's were just plain awful, I could always...
You CAN teach an old dog new tricks! (but he might be that good at performing them) The day to finally mount that cup-holder was today. Took...
Recently did some roll-on undercoating work too, the key was a long-nap roller (and I see you used a nice 1/2" nap) to get texture in the applied...
Hello all, Happy (day early) Independence Day! So I had some time, and decided to cut up Penny's old gas tank (recycling center will not accept...
Phil, Thank You for splashing some color on an otherwise black-and-white forum of late. She is looking GREAT. I enjoy the car parts in the...
All that pavement-buckling torque forsaken! Sacrilege, especially if it was the original, numbers matching mill. The ONLY way this would be an...
Steve, Not random at all... For a steering column, I will be (re)using the stock column, with the stock steering wheel, and an add-on turn signal....
Zig, ALL of this stuff needs to be done BEFORE I drive the truck. Because once I start driving it, I'm not going to (for example) rip the...
One of these days, that 2-drink cupholder that manages to show up in every post will find a home. The shallow recesses in the Astro Van seat...
And this is the result: one of the drawer-fronts, laid out in the flat. [ATTACH] Inside hems folded [ATTACH] And the handle curl folded up...
Slowly but surely, The underseat drawer project is getting some much-needed time. [ATTACH] As it turns out, the plasma cutter wasn't the best...
