    Most affordable shipping for body panels?

    I have a passenger door with electric windows and locks everything is there if you want it. I've never seen what shipping would be to you up in Washington. It's a nice door no rust too. Also have found a guy up the road that has several squarebodys. He might have everything you need too. Give me...

    low oil pressure

    My 84 305 does the same thing. 10w30 mobile1 and mechanical gauge. Just changed the oil and filter. Once warm it's down to 5 to 10 range at idle but up to 20 to 30 on the highway. I figured as long as it goes up with rpm increase I'm good. Same oil in the 454 but it seems to stay around 20 to...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Fender and door. I used to do a couple vehicles in a day at the shop in my 20s. Now in my 50s gotta take a few breaks. Lol Also got the led strip light under the front bumper glued on now. Started to rain before I could get done. So gotta finish tomorrow if weather holds up.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    https://www.gmsquarebody.com/threads/paint-buffing-101.29998/ I did this on the 82's paint and it's in much more worse shape than the 84. It may help y'all a little bit understand how to do it.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    It's been like 30 years since I've done it. It takes practice and can be a little intimidating but you can do it. Got the variable speed buffer on Amazon and the Mcguires compound at Walmart. Just start out at slower speed and don't need to use a lot of pressure and keep it moving. Be careful...

    No fuel in carb at start up

    I'd pull the fuel line to the carb and check the little filter in there to make sure it's not too dirty. Heck you can just put a new one in they're cheap. Then turn the engine over with the line in a bottle or something and see if the pump pumps gas to the carb. If it is getting gas I'd tap...

    What new tools have you got lately?

    Weird thing is I went to turn the lights off and they were off. I looked and it said direct fit. I'll look into it tomorrow. I think when I dropped one and bent the little prong on one side maybe has something to do with it. But it was lit when I took the picture. Idk

    Shouldn't he hook vacuum advance to front carb vacuum fitting? That's where Mines hooked up. Manifold vacuum is constant right? Where carb vacuum increases with rpm increase. I might be wrong about this tho. If I am continue and ignore me. Lol
