Moriarity, what's the story here? [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I like this one a lot! A lot of people don't like when the tires don't follow the wheel well line, but I do. It looks more aggressive to me.
Hi Mick. Jeff Beck didn't paint the car yellow, He bought it from Phil after Phil had the car repainted in yellow. I don't remember what year the...
Phil, the original builder, is the one that redid the car in pearl yellow with the prune on the back. Jeff Beck bought it when it was yellow. At...
It's pinstriping. I knew Phil (RIP), but the car had been redone and sold to Jeff Beck and went to England by the time I met Phil. The car was...
The one above is right hand drive, I wonder if it's factory, or coach built?
Aw man that sucks. Glad you guys are ok.
Bonneville. A lot of that went on.
Wanderlust, That's what I'm wondering. I'll get back on it later.
Today was a day of no progress. I removed the exhaust and it still won't run. I thought it was going to idle, but that was short lived. The little...
The car never got far enough to run before it came to me. The motor and tranny wasn't even bolted in, but the exhaust was the only thing hooked...
31Apickup, that's what I'm thinking.
Oh, I guess I should have added that I tried to start the car with the original carb and distributor, and it acted the same way. I tried hooking...
Ok, I did some more research. I love learning new things. The original distributor cap is definitely even fire. All spark plug terminals are even...
How do I find out if it's even Fire? The motor is a 1983 3.8 V6. in a 1983 Olds Cutlass. Is there numbers I should look for? Thanks.
I'm trying to get an 83 Cutlass running, 3.8 V6. Even fire I was told, whatever that means. I know nothing about the 3.8 V6. Someone else swapped...
That's a nice one. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Nice work.
Damn, I can't make out the phone number.
Nothing wrong with the mags, resemble Indy car mags.
This might clear some stuff up. I haven't watched it yet. [MEDIA]
My old buddy Bob Munro Pleasant Hill CA. He sold this car last year. It was made from a 5 window. Mun bought a bunch of 36 fords and parts and...
I've seen that car in person at the NSRA show in Springfield MO. a few years back. I remember the R&C (I think), maybe Street Rodder? article. The...
Ok. I'm out of town for a few days. I'll get back after it when I get home.
Oh cool! Had a lot of fun today. When I was parking, the stock "T" was pulling in. I had the guy doing the parking for the show park the stock "T"...
That might be what happened yo this one. 40,000 mile original car. Something happened to the motor. I'm not sure what that was, I wasn't there. I...
I actually am going to order this one. The other one is red, and I don't need the wires. Plus it's Amazon, easy return if I would need to, but I...
Yes distributor is in front, Thanks for the info. I know nothing about these motors. I have looked a little tonight and found this,...
The steps were an accessory. Lots of Models A's had them.
I'm trying to get an 83 Cutlass running for a friend. What I need to know is there an aftermarket non computer controlled distributor available...
