My old chevy. The inline six cylinder engine was rebuilt over the winter of 05-06 and is painted, along with the entire engine compartment, metallic bermuda green.
I recently finished making repairs to the fuel tank, filling in some rusted pinholes and cleaning it. After i got done with that, it actually would start up and run whenever i wanted it to. This was a first. That lasted for about 2 months, and now i'm having more problems with the fuel system. When i was rebuilding the engine i noticed a lot of wear on the cam and the fuel pump, so they will probably have to be replaced.
I hate not being able to work on it more, but it stays at my grandparents house, which is about 40 miles away, that coupled with restrictions of time and money make it tough.
But i love this car, and i'll probably end up passing it on to my children.
I'd really love to make this car a real powerhouse, but thats obviously not going to happen with a 50 year old inline six. A 454 would be amazing, and i've got the engine compartment room, but then any chance of keeping it even remotely stock would be ruined.
Please sign my guestbook and leave any advice you have.
