What have you done to your square lately??
Before you focus on reproducing the grill moldings, make the embossed trim for the door panels! Pwetty pwease? ;) -
What have you done to your square lately??
Great example of why this is the best forum on the internet! Took a careful look at my old grill and popped the bright molding pieces off. Cleaned them up and popped them on the new grill! As my dad would have said “I’ll be dipped in s#*t and rolled in breadcrumbs! Just like that this job... -

I’ll definitely check into this! Never occurred to me that they may be removable. -
What have you done to your square lately??
Replaced the grille, BowTie and 454 emblems. Grill was broken in a couple of places. New grille fit fine but was a bit disappointed that the three horizontal bars were simply argent versus chromed. Still it looks better than the broken one. -
Blazer rear seat arm rests
So I went ahead and ordered a pair of rear seat arm rests for 69-72 Blazers and they seem to be perfect matches for my 75, unless my 75 rear seat has been replaced with an earlier version which I doubt. -

What have you done to your square lately??
Wired an indicator light into the electric fan circuit to show me when the radiator fans were energized. Ended up making a mounting bracket out of a left over piece of aluminum angle and painting to match. The light appears much brighter in the photo than it really is. Did something similar... -
LMC Dash Pad Supplier
Just Dashes took a while to get back to me. They said 5 months turnaround after they receive my dash. They don’t use the correct color vinyl so it’s painted like every other dash pad out there it seems. So 5 months with no dash all for the low price of only $2300. Don’t think so! I’m on the... -

What’s that R mean? Rong side? :gr_grin: -
What have you done to your square lately??
Yes it was me. I removed all the under dash components and eliminated the “T” and steel brake line that ran from the master cylinder to the under dash unit. But the brake controller was just too cool once cleaned up so I put that back in.:D -

Let’s see your memorabilia?!
My mom was my main supplier of California Raisins back when they were given out by Wendy’s or Hardee’s or whatever chain had them. Going through her stuff following her passing I found a bag full of them which I added to my collection. Also have a bunch of M2 and other model cars, but I know... -
What have you done to your square lately??
Enjoyed a little off roading today with the wife. Was horrified to discover DIRT in my tires afterwards! Gotta get that cleaned up! :gr_grin: -
What have you done to your square lately??
Wife took pity on me today and gave me an early Christmas gift, a boroscope so I could find those ridiculously hard to see stamping and casting numbers on my engine. Had tried several times but eventually admitted defeat. Tool worked great! From todays searching here is what I have found... -

Oil Pressure Drops After High RPM
@ChuckN I used to buy my Amsoil from a friend, but later just went to their website and enrolled. Now I can order from them and they FedX it here. Usually get it the next day or maybe day after. I run Amsoil in everything; cars, tractors, antique Simplity’s.- WFarm

Oil Pressure Drops After High RPM
Great chart! The Speedway Motors website also discusses the Amsoil products but don’t see them on the chart. The Z-Rod line is specifically designed for older flat tappet engines:- WFarm

Oil Pressure Drops After High RPM
Just for comparison, my oil pressure is at 60 PSI immediately after starting cold. On the highway after the engine is at normal operating temp it settles in the mid 50 PSI. When I stop at a stoplight when hot oil pressure drops to around 30 PSI. This is a Mk IV 454 running Amsoil Z-Rod 10W-30...- WFarm

What have you done to your square lately??
If you don’t have a local supplier for fasteners you can assemble with the old ones, then order the SS equivalents and replace them later, one at a time. -
What have you done to your square lately??
It may be just me, but I like the fasteners to stand out. Unless it’s a special fastener I’ll stop by Valley Fastener and get stainless replacements. Not factory correct, but love the look! -
LMC Dash Pad Supplier
So what I learned today…. Both Dashes Direct and Just Dashes dye their dashes to the required color. None use vinyl made in the correct color. Not sure why as dying the product takes time and money, but can assume our colors are not readily available. Cheyenne Trucks is making dashes for the... -
LMC Dash Pad Supplier
The problem with USA1 is they take your money immediately but then cannot supply the item. They’ll say 16 weeks and 18 months later you’re still waiting. You question them and they’ll say it will ship in one week or one month, but of course it doesn’t. For some items such as paint you may get... -
LMC Dash Pad Supplier
Yes, the seats and center console are stock for the K5. This setup must have been one of the earlier factory interiors to include cup holders. Surprisingly most of the center console is cast metal, with fiberglass at the very bottom where it bolts to the floor. -
