The cold weather sure makes for slow progress, but progress it is. It’s looking good.

Well, there’s been no activity on this site for well over a week so I guess I’ll post something. We went and ran an autocross. It ran well, but we had a noise. the noise got real loud when the suspension was at it’s collapsed travel. Turns out the bracket I made to hold my parking brake cables was too low and the equalizer was able to hit the rear…[Read more]

Back when mine was a daily driver, I had quarter windows put into my original top. This made it a lot easier to see to back up, change lanes, etc. If you’re going custom, it’s something to consider.

I use a cover I got years ago that was a GM accessory. It was for a Chevy Cavalier. It fits nice and tight with stretch fit over front and rear bumpers.

Why does it seem there is never enough room or time?

Good Luck.

Not familiar with the Chevette rear suspension. If it uses leaf springs, then you should be able to swap anything that will physically fit. If the spring perches and overall width is compatible, go for it. Try to stay with comparable bolt pattern with the wheels. Get a rear with disc brakes if you can.

Well I tried to unfold my grille shell and beat it into something usable. I took shears and removed the right side top corner. With some duct tape it somewhat took shape. Still didn’t like it. While fuming over that I removed the wiper mechanism. The hood had come back and pointed the wiper pivot vertical. Cut it out and folded it back into…[Read more]
