Square body being towed
What do you guys think of using a car dolly and disconnecting the rear driveshaft to tow it by only using the front wheels on the dolly? I think I have to do this to get my 86 3+3 4X4 Dually home next weekend. I hope the dolly is wide enough to put a Dually front end on. My car trailer won’t be...- BearKing

Quadrabog bogs
Edelbrock carb in my opinion. Never a lick of trouble and I have used them for almost three decades. I even have a few old Carter AFB that are on some of my classic cars. Excellent carbs and easy to tune and rebuild. Not a fan of Holley carbs unless I am in a race car. Street wise, you can’t...- BearKing

Is the 8.1 still a dead end swap?
I agree with this and just and FYI, we call the 8.1 2500 Suburbans….UNICORNS for a reason. That’s what all the truck guys call them anyway. Have for many years now. They sure are Unicorns in the truck world. Hard to find for sure.- BearKing

1967 C20 Project
Very cool truck. Bringing back memories of my uncle who had a 67 that was orange and he used that thing all over for hunting. He was a WW2 Navy veteran who has been certified to the first guys to ever be hit by a Kamikaze while on the deck of their ship. Their ship is credited with being the...- BearKing

GMC vs. CHEVROLET
Now I need to check her engine. I have to do an oil change anyway. My 4th Gen Z28 has an all aluminum LS engine. That thing is super light and fast. I put about 100-200 miles a year on each of my toys. Corvettes and Z28’s. I need to drive more I guess. I haven’t even taken out one of my...- BearKing

GMC vs. CHEVROLET
Same here. That’s why my wife will be driving her Denali for a long time. She also owns a 79 Shortbox 4X4 with the SM465/205 combo. We are putting in a 6” all spring lift as we speak. It will be a nice truck when we are done with it.- BearKing

GMC vs. CHEVROLET
Aluminum? Are you sure? My wife’s GMC Yukon XL Denali package has every option they had and it has the 6.2 but it’s a cast iron block. Over 400 factory horsepower.- BearKing

Th350 atf leak
Nailed it. I am doing this as we speak. My son, my brother and I pulled the transmission out of our 80 Z28 because it leaked from EVERY place possible. Should be finishing up tomorrow. Just waiting to get an American made front pump seal. Not the Chinesium trash. Bought a whole kit off of the...- BearKing

Making multipurpose shops work
I was forced to use my car shop for a wood working project for my daughters wedding. NEVER AGAIN. Stupid idea to use wood and metal working in the same shop. Very small woodworking projects like gluing something would be ok but cutting, sanding, shaping and using a router would be dumb in my... -

'73 Chevelle SS Wagon (local find)
Nope, only the SS and I think the Laguna S3? Not sure on the Laguna but I know for sure that the SS came with plastic inner wells and the standard Malibu had steel. I’ve had 4 73 SS and 3 standard Malibu‘s. My brother has a 1973 SS. It is Silver with the lack stripes just like yours. He’s...- BearKing

'73 Chevelle SS Wagon (local find)
I just looked through your thread bucket. That’s a rare car for sure. You can tell it’s a TRUE SS because it has the plastic inner fender wells. Only the SS came with those. They also came on the Oldsmobile 442 W30 and W31. I think the Olds ones were a reddish color. I can’t remember. I owned a...- BearKing

Trade my 1978 RS/LT Camaro for your Squarebody….
That’s exactly what happened. A whole AMD floor panel is 700 dollars or a patch is under 50 bucks. Easy fix if you know how to weld. -
Trade my 1978 RS/LT Camaro for your Squarebody….
Which Vette? I own over 25 cars/trucks. I had a giant shop built to house them and it’s still not enough room. I have 40 foot storage lockers full of cars/trucks. Not selling the Camaro, trading it. The value of the car far exceeds what people are willing to pay right now due to the pudding head... -
Trade my 1978 RS/LT Camaro for your Squarebody….
I have a 1978 Camaro RS Type LT that I would like to trade for a Squarebody truck or Blazer. The car has only 84,000 original miles and is from North Dakota. It has Power windows, Power locks, A/C and all the goodies. Not a T top car. It’s Red and Black. Never been painted. Has a few hail dents... -
