PLEASE Sign Up & Post in the Classified Section - If you don't want to talk No Problem - But Please - List those Parts for Sale or Parts Needed! As you all know locating any parts for these early GM vehicles is tough, the goal of this forum is to bring the restorers, lowriders, street & rat rodders together. There are plenty of forums out there and it's a pain trying to locate Chevy/GM parts tucked in all of those Ford, Dodge, Plymouth etc ads. Some forums don't like mixing restored cars with custom cars, we'll focus on the early BOWTIE's....but mix it up some. To be clear we love all vintage vehicles regardless of make..it's just tough locating the Govt Motors stuff! To assist in your projects advertising is encouraged & will be FREE for both PRIVATE and COMMERCIAL sellers. Don't be a Bowtie Parts Hoarder! Unlike many other forums you are encouraged to mention other websites and/or forums in your posts or signatures. We even have a list of other forums at the bottom of the page….this is a reference site.

Views: 956 | Comments: 5 Since older parts are getting scarce at the junkyards, I've been thinking about more modern drive train swaps other than the usual LS stuff. Let's throw around some idea's. Jeeps have a modern straight 6 and 5speed manual trans in the 2wd XJ would make a great swap. Also the axles are a good width for 30's cars. I've had a crazy idea floating around the back of my mind forever. 🤔 I acquired a 2wd front axle recently and thought it would make a great "plan C" if this other doesn't work out. It's the right width and would lift the 32 about 5" . Total mad max tire/wheel combo. 😉 It looks like I could get the steering to work if I made a custom steering arm or turned the axle around for rear steer. So while I had the car up on jacks. I mocked it up at the height it would be at and sat a 31" tire in its place. A 32" would be more fitting. I shouldn't have done this cause now it is taunting me. 😁 August 25, 2024, 07:25:36 AM by EDNY
Views: 415 | Comments: 1 Recently picked up a 1990 Jeep Wrangler basketcase. Installing a new timing chain set I didn't realize that the 4 and 6cyl engine timing chain covers don't have alignment pins like the GM engines. Some guys insert the crank balancer partially using the seal to center the cover, then insert the bolts, tried that and cover was still off center (seal rubber was not rigid enough) There are factory and aftermarket installation tools $$$ but: I used an old 3/4" drive socket I picked up at a garage sale and rounded out the square hole to fit the crank, milled a slot to clear the crank key and finally turned down the OD. Install without seal nice and tight now. August 15, 2024, 08:23:05 AM by Chevindy | Views: 1027 | Comments: 12
Morning everyone, I have bought a 54 235 and want to swap out with the 6 cyl in my 1931. I would prefer to stay with the manual trans setup in the car for now. Can this be done? Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated August 01, 2024, 06:59:25 PM by Coley | Views: 518 | Comments: 0
A customer of mine needed a couple of door finger pulls made for a custom interior he has. The original were so thin they broke the first time he pulled the doors closed. Mine are made of a heavier plastic and have a nice textured finish on the. Lokar sells metal ones similar to these. They measure 3 /58 " long and 1"wide for the opening they fit. Held on by 2 screws. $ 38.00 pair. Pages: [1]
