    aluminum core support

    I think that part of the problem people are having with this core support is the appearance... I'll admit, it looked pretty rough, but only because a lot of paint flaked off when i scrubbed it down. So, I took a few minutes today to spray-bomb it with some flat black so that the surface looks...

    aluminum core support

    I'm flexible, but not that flexible. All it needs is the rest of the loose paint wirebrushed off and a quick spray. Scott

    aluminum core support

    I've got an aluminum core support in nice shape. I was gonna use it, but I don't feel like pulling the front end apart again to do it. I'd like $300 plus shipping. Here's a few shots of the top. Looking at it, it's not perfect, but it's not a pretzel, either. I think the area...

    Anyone have Goof off at work stories?

    I know I don't post here a bunch, but reading thru this reminded me of some crap I've pulled over the years. Back when I was selling cars, the receptionist was an older lady who was actually pretty cool, the kind of older person who remembered what it was like to be young, so she thought...

    Man...Did Artest....

    Local (Indy) news reported Wallace got a 6 game suspension. Personally, I agree that several of them out to be gone for good, and maybe some criminal charges would be appropriate too. Scott

    Does anyone shoot trap here

    Been shooting trap for a while now.... For trap, I have 2 Browning BT-99's. One is a 32" Modified choke gun with a 3/8 Broadway rib. I use it from the 16 yard line back to the 25 with a moderate charge of Hercules Green Dot powder and #7½ shot. For anything beyond the 25, the other gun...

    Here's a story straight from the soldiers's mouth

    First off, you're way out of line. That statement is about as intelligent as saying ALL cops are asses because ONE gave you a hard time at some point. Second, I'll be the first to admit I can tell you NOTHING about any unit other than my own. I was NG for 6 years, as both Infantry and...

    Monte Carlo SS Instrument Panel?

    As far as the speedo swap goes, you won't have to recalibrate anything. The gears in the trans will still match the rear end. A popular swap on the 83-86 SS's is to swap in a 87-88 speedo, which registers 120 MPH. It's a direct bolt-in, no re-cal needed. I'm pretty sure that if you swapped...

    Looking into buying 88 and up Blazers/Jimmy. Need help....

    Hey Myclone, your post reminded me of something else- There's a connector behind the passenger side kick panel that must be disconnected in order to check the timing. Before I learned that I had a low power problem once, mine showed 0 deg., but it was actually runnig close to 30 deg...

    Looking into buying 88 and up Blazers/Jimmy. Need help....

    I have a '94 Jimmy I bought with 60K on it, is now at 190K+. On the fuel system, yes, it USED to be a costly fix. To be exact, there's a "main" injector/pressure regulator assembly under the lower intake plenum. In the past, if the main injector OR the FPR malfunctioned, you had to replace...

    Car Loan Vs. Home equity Maybe......

    Quick6 is absolutely right. NEVER NEVER use an appreciating asset (your home) to secure a depreciating liability (car, boat, ATV's, whatever). If you borrow against your home for ANY amount and default, there's not a "probability" you'll lose your house, they WILL take it. A second...
