This is the most current pic i can find that i can post on here.
Question/Comments welcome
"Project 69'"
1969 Chevrolet C/10, 1/2 ton, 2wd
-Boosted LS1?
-Richmond ROD 6-speed(will get sometime)
-Posi 12-bolt(built w/eaton posi unit and richmond 3.73 gears)
-Disc brake and 5 lug swap
+little extras
My project is a '73 Triumph Bonneville motorcycle. No pictures at the time. It's at my dad's house in pieces for the time being. We picked it up off a friend for $750, it had a seized engine and hadn't moved in 8 years. Currently it's a 750cc bored .040 over on the same engine but we need to paint the frame and put it back together when we get time.

well i guess you already know what my project is lol.so what are your plans a full resto or something else
The 57 Ford Fairlane 4-Door custom sedan in my sig. Now that the nice florida winter has hit I've been able to start working on her again. Almost done getting the brakes to work. Taking apart the front drums this weekend to see what I got ahead of me on that.
The 292 Y-Block runs and starts up fine but it needs alot of work to be pretty but she wont be having any shiny paint.
How many steps to heaven, Doc?
...Ah, metaphysics.
mines removing the 4 spd out of the 71 Z and putting in the 5 spd w/od
cant wait should double gas mileage from 10g/ mile to 5 g/mile
The plans for mine are ehhh..... Custom Resto. i guess thats the best way to put it. Minimal body modes, just cleaning it up. But as for everything else....custom. Full custom air ride, worked over Pontiac 400, 6-speed, posi. My one big hurdle is the welding i need done, im not a welder. So i'll ask, If there is anyone around Northeast PA or Binghamton, NY area that is a great welder I could use your skills. PM me if you feel like helping me out. More detals about my cars are on Cardomain, just search "tinkles".

Call me crazy, but I don't like the old muscle cars, motorbikes, or trucks. My project is my '88 Beretta GT. I don't know, the car just speaks to me. It's got a style that's unmistakable, and just enough aftermarket to make it an underdog, and I like having the odds against me. No pics yet, it's not ready to see a camera. I want to at least clean up the interior.
2010 Honda Fit LX
lets see
89 z24 convertible which I'll get to work on sometime
68 GTO
and my 04 Colorado
Does that GTO have a engine in it? If so, what are the head codes and would you feel like parting with them?

haha funny ever try finding parts for a 41 buick lol
new to me 72 Cutlass, been meaning to get around to making a post about it but I've been having too much fun
Happy to see there are other Oldsmobile lovers on this site
Sorry guys thats the only picts I got
I love old cars.... I wan't to get a 72 Nova pretty bad...
They still sell cheap because nobody wan'ts them... and they have just as much potential than anything else.... plus I think they look cool... kinda like a smaller version of a Chevelle
Some Day.

yes it has a engine in it and the motor is out of a early mid 70s bonnieville so I dont think you would be interested I need to rebuild the motor one of these days
if they were the ram air heads I would be holding onto those
