Is there anybody using the 7in corvette booster and master cylinder on their truck and if so do you know the pedal travel from rest to fully pressed. I'm trying to make my brake pedal bracket and so far I don't like where it sets. I'm trying to move it back more but need to know the travel so...

I know I'm not on here alot any more guys but it doesn't mean my truck is not getting worked on. I lost steam for a while, or should I say the funds, but now I'm back in action. I'm working hard to get the truck driveable by the last weekend in august to make a car show in evansville indiana...

Or maybe just been sneaking around a little bit. Sorry guys I've been quiet, but I truly have been very busy. I've tried to juggle work, riding my dirtbike, working on my truck, and now I'm starting my own business. I guess I'm busy but still should check in on my buddies. Well here's a few...

Well this is the only mercedes I would ever own. We bought her last night. She is only 6wks old and the cutest little JRT (jack russell terrier) I've ever seen. Enjoy the pics.

Okay guys so lets talk about that remote brake fluid reservoir again. This time I've got answers and pictures to show. I found a company at the good guys show that had them on display. It was a billet alluminum master cylinder cover with a braided hose coming out of billet alluminum...

I know it's not an AD BUT, it is my new ride and I thought I'd share some pics with you guys. I bought a 2004 chevy silverado ext. cab 4X4 yesterday. I wanted the 3/4 ton but they were a little high so I bought this one instead. I really do love being back in a big truck. Enjoy the pics.

So Tab had to work today and I was just sitting around the house getting pretty bored. No AD to work on cause it's at dad's still. I did have a BMW wheel in the garage that I wanted to convert into an end table for my bonus room to match my coffee table. So I got up and went to home depot and...

I found your next project Zig. Wouldn't that look cool going to the car show with your restored truck on the back of this COE. Sounds like a plan to me. The truck really looked like it was in excellent shape. If I were wanting a COE with a funny looking grill I would definately give this one...

Have you guys ever heard of a FARGO. I've only seen two of these trucks in my life until today. Today a cargo truck pull up to the shop with a mini and a Fargo on the trailor. The guy pulls the truck off then the mini, then he loads up two other cars on the trailor. I walk over to the old...

Hey guys I thought I'd pass on this web site that dad sent me on how to identify GM transmission. It has some good info on it. http://www.nastyz28.com/chevy-transmission-identification.php

Well Ken this must be a great place for these old trucks. There is a guy by the name of Malcolm Stevenson that you need to get a hold of and go check out his ride. He made the Feb issue of Classic Trucks with his 54 chevy rebuild. He's a man after my own heart with the C5 corvette engine in...

I had a pm earlier from Mader's 48 asking about my avatar pics. I thought I'd share some of the pics I have of the truck with you guys. Unfortunately this is not my truck but I thought it was absolutely gorgeous so I took a few pics of it and posted them under members gallery. Hope you guys...

I don't know if some of you guys knew it or not but very few new cars have power steering on their cars and NO power steering pump. How you say? Our BMW Z4 has electronic power assist (steering) that is operated by an electric motor that receives a signal from a steering angle sensor and a...

I know that this has nothing to do with our old trucks but I thought it was pretty darn funny and thought I'd share. I was sitting here doing my favorite thing of the day, posting and playing on the forum, when my dog starts going crazy and barking at the window. It can only be one of two...

I thought I'd post a few pics of my weekend with the truck. I had a great time hanging out with dad while working on the truck. When mom took the picture of dad sitting in my truck he told me not to post that pic, so me being me I thought I'd put it on here, he'll really appreciate it. We got...

Hey guys my service writer at work said his father in law has a 400 trans out of a mid 70's pontiac. I don't know much about tranny's so here's my question. Is this an over drive transmission? I know that a 350 trans is not and a 700r4 is but I didn't know about the 400. Any help would be...

Hey guys, I just pulled my cab off of my original frame to put onto my S-10 frame. Now I'm stuck with a rolling chassis that I don't need. I didn't know if any of you guys may be interested in buying it. It is a complete original rolling chassis less the motor and trans. The torque tube is...
