    Should this new guy buy this '85?

    Lol, Caddy hood emblem. Does that make it the first Escalade? Looks like it would make a good farm truck. Welcome.

    2 or 4 inch lift kit

    Good luck actually getting anything from them. Canceled my order after 6 weeks and 3 different ship dates. Went with a 2.5” Skyjacker down from a 4” Rough Country.

    Also put the wheel well trim from the other 86 on this one since it is in the garage getting restored and will get new anyway.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Swapped the stock steering wheel for an old one from a 77 Camaro I used to have to get a feel for a smaller wheel before I decide on something new.

    Cruisin the Coast ‘23 - show pics added!

    Remember seeing one as a kid. Jacked up, black, wide tires and Cragars. Made me want a Maverick then.

    cheap paint job options

    If you have a compressor Summit or Duplicolor both offer low cost decent options. I have less than 500 in my Camaro. Not the best or show car but ok for a driver.

    700R4 TV cable - weird adjuster?

    Good videos. ike the second bracket too. I didn't think about cutting the alignment tab on the TV cable either. Another idea for orientation.

    700R4 TV cable - weird adjuster?

    Also, pay attention to the orientation of the push button on the TV cable. That is part of the reason for the latest modification I am adding. I can also measure distances from carb to bracket for you off an original q-jet setup like I did for mine. I'll post them tomorrow too. Fixing to go to...

    700R4 TV cable - weird adjuster?

    I made what I hope to be the final tweak for the bracket at work last night. Should get it installed tomorrow. I'll take some pics when I do. I know you need the TV cable geometry correcting bracket 8026. I see you do not have it on yours. Only thing I can guess that does is alter the ratio of...

    700R4 TV cable - weird adjuster?

    I think you can loosen that screw where it attaches to the throttle plate and take the slack out. I know I saw one video where a guy did that. I think you can pretty much feel when it make contact with the plunger in the transmission. If it is shifting where you say it sounds like you are pretty...

    700R4 TV cable - weird adjuster?

    Aftermarket intake? Just went through this on mine. Your bracket is stock like mine was. Guy I bought the truck from had replaced the intake and carb with both Edelbrock. I wound up buying one of those adjustable brackets. Spectre I think. Check my @NickTransmissions thread in the Transmissions...
