Update on the 82 SS

Short and sweet video, here's what she sounds like sitting at a stop sign or a red light. Sounds menacing. New nickname is Chop

In search of camper shell.

I have an 83 SS Cho Cho and would like to find a camper shell for it to use on occasions. If any one knows of one I would appreciate hearing from you. 5th generation 78-87. I am in Kansas City area. But will travel for one.

Worth it to try and fix cruise control?

I have an 86 conquista with a 305 that's going to eventually get swapped for a 350. Right now on the cruise control where the arm goes it's been cut in a way where I think I can fix it. My question is with an eventual engine swap will I be able to use the cruise control?

What would be a good engine build to throw in a El Camino?

Been thinking about buying an old engine block, used or a junkyard engine to build up on and see if I could make roughly 390-420 hp but I’m not sure what would be a good block

PS fluid

My el Camino is running low on ps fluid. I know it recommended to flush when putting in new fluid. My question is, is it bad if I top it off and don’t flush?

She's alive!!

She's extremely dirty and dusty from sitting in the warehouse but it's up and running on its own power now!! Big cam, noisy timing gears, new performer intake with a new spacer, new (to me) Edelbrock 650 carb. Have to do some tweaking on the carb still, but it sounds awesome!!

1964 dash frame

Hey all, the dash on my 64 has really bad rust, and I've been looking for a replacement, but I've been having a really hard time finding one. Does anyone here know where I can find one, a company or website that makes them? Thank you.

Hi, what size of Philips do I need for these, any suggestions? I need to fully remove the tailgate.

Any advice on how to remove these is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Assistance with engine diagnostics ('84 305 SBC Conquista)

I purchased an '84 not long ago, and the engine sounds great in park or neutral but has a consistent ticking when under load. It also lacks power and will slowly accelerate when flooring the pedal. Any tips or links would be greatly appreciated!
