    cargo light/ 3rd brake light install

    What’s hiding behind the vertical panel between roof line and rear window. I’d be bummed if I created extra repairs if I drilled in the wrong spots. Any pics available of the factory installation holes? I’m installing a newer led light, not the factory original.

    Whats this purpose and where does it land?

    I found this plastic tube/line melted in the engine bay? It goes behind the plastic firewall cover which I would rather avoid removing.

    Cowl clips

    The originals were either missing or broke when I removed the cowl. I have been unsuccessful finding new ones so I used these which I hope isn’t permanent. Anyone know where I can buy the correct clips or have a better idea for the cowl clips? I need about 5-6 clips.

    Carpet size

    After dying the carpet and trying to fit it, appears it’s not wide enough. Appears to be 1-2” short on each side along the angle. I haven’t cut the floor shift hole in fear I will make it mostly useless if it truly isn’t wide enough and it fits a different model. It doesn’t have much stretch...

    Please help me solve this riddle

    Well, winter is around the corner and I am gonna start driving my beater car, 99 Bonneville 3800, 275k miles. Thus, I’m going to work on my new issue that I didn’t solve when I stopped driving end of April. I definitely have oil in my coolant, enough to leave residue on my finger when I put it...

    DA New Pantina, at least temporarily

    I despise sanding, already had to replace the compressor electric motor. I decided to try the harbor freight heat gun. Not sure if it’s because of the solar eclipse, the air temp, luck or all three but the 5 extra layers for the most part is scraping off fairly clean with some heat AND it’s so...

    Show us your “Square Interior Pimpin”

    I’ve read many posts regarding after market dash pad, mostly about unsatisfied quality, price and delivery time. I have seen a lot of creative custom covers which looked very unique but I am undecided which way I will “customize” my canvas art. How about sharing your customization along with the...

    Rotor discoloration, pulsing

    Just replaced rotors and pads because of pulsing so I thought the rotor was warped. The problem still exists and I notice the new rotor is discolored. Bad wheel bearing? Maybe caliper? I greatly appreciate your help, thank you. 2014 gmc sierra 1500.

    Another fuel selector valve question

    EFI now carbureted using a noisy Holley red pump pulling from dual tanks with six port selector valve. This evening I was going to adjust noisy rocker arms so I started truck and it died which appeared to be fuel issue. Both tanks are full but I hit the other tank switch anyway. I then noticed...

    Scissor Jack

    This should work and mount on the inner fender, right? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BJV4XV49/ My truck is missing the Jack and I just need to pickup a spare tire so I can drive it more.

    240 vs 260 temperature gauge

    Is the signal automatically calibrated for the installed gauge? I’m considering switching instrument clusters, the cluster installed currently has a gauge 100-240F, the other I’m considering installing is 100-260F. The remaining gauges are the identical to each other, except the temperature gauge.

    Classic Parts Pics for SHOW

    So yesterday, I picked this up from a seller on Craigslist. Ive always wanted a 60s impala SS so this might be my only chance to own a piece of one. I’m thinking that I will put it on the garage wall for show and I’m gonna start a collection. What classic part do you have to SHOW?

    Alternator?

    Daily driver water pump seized and it spewed coolant everywhere and smoked the belt some. After replacing it, it didn’t want to fire up and run properly but I figured I tripped a bunch of codes when I moved the car without the serpentine belt connected. I eventually got it to start and run...

    Hoes or Holes

    PO(s) made Swiss cheese in the box, which I plan to weld up. I get the 10 holes on the top rails of the box but I don’t get the the holes in the front corners. Ideas? I don’t want to fill the holes if they might serve a purpose down the road.

    Firewall Plastic Shroud

    What is the purpose of the firewall plastic shroud? My k20 is the only time I’ve ever seen one. I’m gonna work on the AC evaporator but looks like I have to remove this first and it goes along the entire firewall with multiple parts to remove.

    Can you clean gauges?

    So I got some junk yard gauges yesterday which the face plates are a little dirty so I was wondering if I can clean them up without ruining or dulling the painted print? I recall trying this on my chevelle gauges and the paint smeared.

    Patch Panel or Metal Fabrication ?

    Scrapped off the bubbly to determine the extent of the rust repair, looks mostly limited to both sides cab corners and both sides box behind rear wheels. Does it make sense to buy patch panel or just fabricate my own patches for these small areas? The driver side cab corner and passenger...
