Fantastic.
I tracked down a copy of Bill Neumann's book, sure enough, it was the book I had read so many times as a kid. Thanks for helping me identify it!
The Consumer guide book would be too new(but probably still cool). I'm pretty sure it's the Bill Neumann book.
I bet it is. No luck finding it on eBay. ;(
I must have checked this book out of the school library 100 times, back in the 70s. It seemed to be a fairly old book, maybe 60s or even 50s. As...
I am contemplating an LS1 swap in mine. I'll never open the hood; won't need to. But the oil pan may screw me on this one.
For Those Who Think Young. I had to look it up, couldn't remember it. I saw it but don't remember it being a cinematic masterpiece. [MEDIA]
I see, 15x10 on the Villa, not the white '63-'64. I noticed the real car has radiused wheel wells; the model car does not. Funny coincidence, I...
15x10 you say-crazy! I wouldn't have thought they would fit, especially up front. I can have any stance I want, with air ride. I will be...

I cut the splined part off the pitman arm and welded new steel to it. Was about ten years ago. I can't find any pictures.

New Any idea where/when that picture was taken? Don't see a lot of them that low from "way back when". I love it.
Can't go over .450 lift. Beehive springs are $200, plus the valve keeper will still bottom out on the guides.
I realize Vortec heads are far from traditional, but if the hood is closed, who will know? I need to modify my Vortec heads so I can run a high...
After 40 years of dreaming, I will finally have a car there. If you see me near the gold Rivi, come have a cold one. There will be 7 other cars...
Should be out next year....
Get yourself one of these and some wet sand paper....
I am glad this is still here ten years later...
R.I.P. Blackie.
If it comes out half as nice as the coupe, it's all good...
Sounds healthy but I liked the yellow...
That steering wheel puller is great! I have a few old columns it may come in handy.
Skylarks!
Damn, he hasn't been here since March! I'm Jonesing for an update myself.
"As a side note. I was told that the Mickey Thompson stadium racers actually ran the R&P with preload and before the race they would drain the...
That's pretty interesting.
What a great thread!
Awesome, Jay's show is the only "Car" T.V. show worth a damn.
Nice...
