    73 Camper Special

    One owner truck on its long journey back to Ohio. I have to wait a month to actually inspect the truck in person. The more I look at the truck..the more I want to just leave it stock and drive it.

    Tonneau covers

    I dont haul large objects,just mainly want to protect the bed from rust. Very damp in ohio year round and most my vehicles sit outside. I hate watching them decay. I plan on building a pole building eventually,but every year they sit out,the rust takes its toll.

    Tonneau covers

    First accessory has to be tonneau cover and bedliner. Considering the LMC listed on page 146. Anyone have pics of their setup? Is spray on bedliner the only option nowadays?

    Scrapping the camper mirrors

    Any functional good looking mirror options? I dont plan on towing anything. The camper mirrors ruin the whole look of the truck..IMHO

    They are original. Page 8 and 9 of Chevrolet pickups 1973-1998

    Sourcing a posi unit

    I like the true Trac install. No removing the current carrier. About $500 for the unit. Looks like an easy install. My next project!

    Sourcing a posi unit

    You need to use common sense with posi. I use my 73 El Camino as a yard mule..To move my projects around the yard. Would be impossible without posi. I'd just dig a nice hole in the grass. You can feel the extra bite the posi gives you. Who drives in the rain or snow? If you get caught in a...

Holley carb,chrome covers and brackets. 455 with turbo 400. Paid ,$2500. Only problem? Fuel tank sending unit and faded paint. It will be...

    73 Grand Am 400 4 speed

    That video was the engines first start. Requires a high idle to break in the cam. Engine has roller rockers so everything needed a break in. Master cylinder then went out. Every time I fix one system something else goes out. Think one project is expensive? Try 10. This car was my first purchase...
