the car is basically finished. here's a little video.
I'm still getting familiar with the car and did not expect it to brake loose like it did, so it caught me off guard and I just played with it.

Sounds and looks good for sure. I had an old time mechanic take one of my cars for a ride. He came back and said son you need what I used to call a California tune up. I was like really what is that. He said that's what we called it when the gas pedal was hard to push down.... and what did he do? He put a lighter return spring on the carburetor. I was like really how many people did you charge for that. He just laughed....

Nice car

bring this old thread back up.
the car has not been out of the garage or uncovered sense Oct. 2016 until today. took her for a drive man those polyglas tires were flat spotted. think I'm going to get some reproduction radials.

scuncio 07-23-2023 01:31 AM

Looks great, Donnie. I'll buy those tires if you end up swapping over radials.

NorCam 07-23-2023 02:25 AM

Ya just need to get out and drive them more often Donnie. I have a set of those on the same wheels and love driving on Polyglas. Nice looking Chevelle!
