    Anthony's 53 Chevrolet truck

    I have a friend who is 16 years old, is on the autism spectrum, and takes forced perspective photographs. What is forced perspective.... every single one of those pictures below is a 1:18 scale model car. I met him 3 years ago at a car show where he was given a 57 Ford 300 - somehow I ended up...

    PF3

    As we all know, nothing is real until there are pictures... yeah, a treasure... but given my plans, I don't have to cut up anything someone else would consider 'savable' so there it is. my plan is up after the Blazer is roadworthy.... but there's a lot of stuff that has to happen in the...

    Uncle Paul's C3

    Luigi thinks Paul (aka Uncle Paul) is the greatest thing since the invention of the ball. I'm not sure how much of the build I'll detail, but since asked... here we go it's 1973 Corvette Convertible. It's in rough shape, I'd call it a great candidate for a ground up. It wasn't cheap - but...

    SEMA 2022

    I post on Bangshift about my SEMA experiences (pictures). I'll cross post here and have the same thing. If you see something or are interested in someone's solution to something and want pictures... let me know, I'll do my best to accommodate.

    Bloverlanding in a Blazer

    So I like car camping, yeah, I said it. Now that's called "Overlanding" car camping has been co-opted by the 20somethings who would never be caught dead doing a poor thing - but with its new name, it's 'hip' I'm not hip, but I do like getting away - and going to an RV park has all the appeal...

    CTS aka Britney Spears

    She's white, kind of dirty, might end up a bit nuts but would you say no? I didn't. okay, she's 2006 Cadillac CTS 6 speed with 100k miles and a rod-like knock. I have another motor - the one in the Fiat. For a myriad of reasons, I'm going with a different motor in the Fiat... and this came...

    Road to Optima 2021

    Some might be interested in this - as many know, I've been building a 1976 Corvette for three years. At about year 2, Randy Probst said something that made me reconsider how far I was taking the build. That offhand comment was "the Camaro (5th gen) handles better then the similar Corvette" ...

    Buinicorn

    I always wanted a flat top wagon.... thought I found a non-rusty one - it was, it wasn't rusted in the normal spots.... and it had been hit in the right rear I'll give background next post but here's where I'm at Did I say this was a solid car? well, it is now so time to take it even...

    Plastic Fantastic 2

    2 years - that is number of years I can go without a C3. ut oh, there's an anti-theft device there My friend has a scoop... mine is bigger (where the 'ew' came from) the motor and trans don't come with it, but it comes with its stock motor (a 350) and trans (a ST-10). This motor sounds...

    1950 Buick Sledanette

    In the 2010, I went to a car show and saw this it is the sexiest car I'd ever seen, nice chop, perfect color, but it has a Cadillac motor :bomb: but the seed had been planted and not terribly long after this, I bought this from a farmer in Montana. That was 2012. The plan was to use a 455...

    snap oversteer

    I know this seems like an odd place to ask this question, but honestly, I think you folks are subject matter experts and could add some insight. This is all about a FJ40 that I've built with 3 link front and 4 link rear... but the question is kind of a "I need to check the basics before I get...

    377

    I've been dancing around the edge of doing this for awhile - and I think I'm going to jump in. I have a 400 block, 4 bolt splayed caps, 200 cfm aluminum heads and a C3 Corvette that was supposed to be a quick flip... I think I'm going to jump all in and make this car far less streetable with...

    Weird hop

    on this video, at 35 seconds https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRhJd0kdREU there is a really weird hop of the back, inside tire... what caused it? it only happens for a brief flash, but you can see daylight under the tire...

    FJ4Overland

    totally by accident, I ended up with this So some background. My 1st 4x4 was a 1971 FJ 40 with a Ford 302 in it. It almost killed me more times than I can count... but I loved it. Enough that over the years I owned 6 more. Recently, I was simply perusing Seattle Craigslist and I found this...

    Fast Ez-efi

    I had this on my pretty-radically-cammed C3 and decided to continue with the knuckle-dragging theme (no PS, 4 speed, no PDB) and run a carb. It might have 1000 miles of use on it - will included new O2 sensor and bung. Includes external fuel pump and filter. $1750 or better offer...

    Chicago press brake

    a few months ago, I went to Canada and rescued this from our 51st State. thank heavens for the 12k winch on the front of my pickup when I moved it into the shop, I'd removed the press-plates from the machine. Originally this machine was designed as a stamping press and had a special...
