    Reprise's 2003 Sierra Build Project - Blue Crush

    Thank you so much. But, as I no longer have my 97-X, I will decline your kind offer. Even though I have sold my Saab, I visit this site mostly every day to keep up with you guys, great site. Doug

    LL8 Engine Test Platform Project

    Auto Meter makes mechanical oil pressure gauges up to 150 psi, looking at their site, I see 8 of them, ranging from $75 to $110. Have no idea of their worthiness but seem to have a great selection of gauges of all types.

    2019 Chevrolet Blazer

    I saw a red one the other day, it looks like someone had pushed the side in, like a huge dent. I don't know if it is the lines or paint reflections but I don't like it. I saw a red Mazda car in a lot and it has the same dent effect.

    Repainting (change color) - anyone ever do it?

    I had a black 1997 Grand Prix ( wife's car ) painted Cadillac Red in 2002. We kept it until 2009 and the paint was as good then as when it was repainted. They did inside the hood, doors and trunk area. It cost us $1600 CAD with a bit of minor bodywork.

    NEED HELP Rear Window To Hinge Adhesive

    If it were me, I would take it to a Windshield install/repair place, like Speedy. They may have access to adhesive not available to the public.

    vortec4200.com going dead

    I have just come from the site and it looks like limequat is trying to revive it. Seems the owner, Pete, died a couple of years ago. They have contacted his wife and son and are working on the paper work. Here's hoping!

    Amazon Product FYI - Prime memberships going up to $119 USD in June

    Back in the 50s & 60s, you could phone the local grocery store, order your groceries and it would be delivered by a young lad on a bicycle. The amount would be put on your "tab", which you would pay later, predating the "credit card". Nothing new under the sun.
