Hers a pic I snapped Thursday...


I will have more when they upload to photobucket...
Anyways... I pulled the motor out of the passenger seat floorboard and got the header halfway on, gotta get some new 11mm brass nuts and possibly 2 new studs. Got the motor on a cart and hooked a gas can up gravity feed right to the carb, hooked the battery from my saab and tried to ripstart with a clothesline...  FAIL :doh: Needs a good tuneup and I should be good... got my interior installed (pics coming) just waiting on brake parts and a autostick starter... didn't do much other than that...
More to come... :golfclap:

Found this... anybody had any experiance with this? Ride quality? Size conversion for car rims? I'm assuming the rounded shape would be awesome for the cars with broke axle style camber because you could just swap sides... I emailed him a while back with no response will try again and post findings later...

I'm witgh him, that cavalier is way out there... its like a relic job on a guitar... looks beatup and played but none of the uniqueness of a guitarthatsreally been rocked on for 25 years... just let it happen... don't wash it and don't worry about scratches, but don't neglect it because the you end up with rot like my 56 that's splitting at the door seam and the door has no bottom... have fun though! That's the main part! Its your car, your expression, not mine or his... but as a word of wisdom... my wife forbid  :airquote; me to let my son near my 56... haha. I've been mandated to get a tetnus booster as well  :doh:
