  1. They lit the sissyfied sign on GM headquarters today. Whatta shame.
  2. I hear that buddy, still have those indents too. Before I built the garage and poured a cement pad in front of it. I have many LOL driveway moments, before and after. Going on 44 years I've owned this place. When did I have time to get this old??
  3. Had to pick the body back up and slid the 4x4's between the frame and body. Did all the replacing/rebuilding of metal from there. Welding was a big part of my physical therapy beginning 3 weeks after surgery.
  4. LMAO NOT the smartest thing I've ever done. Have an industrial come along. Cut a 6X6 barn beam to cover 4, 2X4 trusses for each end of the body. Lifted the front of the body 4in and left it hangin by chain. I had mis- aligned the front 6X6 and was off center on the rear of the body leaving most of the weight on 2 trusses. YEP Snap....busted one of the trusses while pulling out the old frame. If this thing goes any more South, I not only take out my project GTO but my Sunbird sittin next to it as well. 16 x24 garage with one side of each car tucked up against the wall. Scrambled to get the setup that failed on the donor body in place with cinder blocks and 4X4's to sit on, with JUSTA nuff room (1in clearance for the outside edge of the tires) to roll the frame QUICKLY but carefully in place. Lowered the bod back down and lined up 1 rear body mount bolt. Then to the front. Had a hell of time lining up the front mounts missing by a half in. I was down to the last 1/4in and couldn't get the bolts in soooo. Mighty Mouse here has the weight in the rear JUSTA off the mount with a 2X4 and floor jack. Same in front, I grab the front of the body by the steering column hole and the heater core hole and pick it up, move it Justa bit and of course one of 2x4's slipped dropping the body 3/4 in or so but perfectly in place. Problem was, tore my right rotator cuff (that was already tore in one spot) and all of the 4 tendons that work my right arm. My right arm was dangling and I couldn't move it. My fingers still worked. So finished installing the bolts on the body mounts before going in to tell the wife the good news. My bicept is now down at my elbo as they not able to re attach that one during surgery. When it was in the air I realized how bad it was really rusted. The frame shop said to junk it. Didn't believe him. Not about to give up now. Floor pans front to trunk, all new bracing, inner rockers, and about 6in of the pillar post/kick panel to the top of the vent. New body mount brackets in the rear and repair kits for some of the others. OHHH for the LOVE of PONTIAC.
  5. I can't drive........ .15 LMAO Kiwi, WRIF was the hottest Rock station on the radio. Backed up with WLLZ. Don't know why this didn't post the 1st time. Was still SAVED. Man card?

  8. Now's the time to plastic gauge and check your bearings. Best chance you will have to replace the oil pump, rear main. How many miles were on the ticker when she was hit?
  9. Sounds like your bout ready for some Pontiac excitement. Thankz for sharing. Keep us up on the rest of the build process.

  17. Subject: Fw: The Walmart Interview........ . Jennifer, the manager at the local Walmart , had the task of hiring someone to fill a job opening. After sorting through a stack of resumes she found four people who were equally qualified. Jennifer decided to call the four in and ask them only one question. Their answer would determine which of them would get the job. The day came and as the four sat around the conference room table, Jennifer asked, "What is the fastest thing you know of?" The first man replied, "A THOUGHT. It just pops into your head. There's no warning." "That's very good!" replied Jennifer. "And, now you sir," she asked the second man. "Hmmm... let me see... A BLINK! It comes and goes and you don't know that it ever happened. A BLINK is the fastest thing I know of." Excellent!" said Jennifer. "The blink of an eye, that's a very popular cliché for speed." She then turned to the third man, who was contemplating his reply. "Well, out at my dad's ranch, you step out of the house and on the wall, there's a light switch. When you flip that switch, way out across the pasture the light on the barn comes on in less than an instant. Yep, TURNING ON A LIGHT is the fastest thing I can think of." Jennifer was very impressed with the third answer and thought she had found her man "It's hard to beat the speed of light," she said. Turning to Ernest, the fourth and final man, Jennifer posed the same question. Old Ernest replied, "After hearing the previous three answers, it's obvious to me that the fastest thing known is DIARRHEA. "WHAT?" said Jennifer, stunned by the response. "Oh sure," said Ernest. "You see, the other day I wasn't feeling so good, and I ran for the bathroom, but before I could THINK, BLINK, or TURN ON THE LIGHT, I had already shit my pants." Ernest is the new greeter at the Walmart near you! You probably will think of this every time you enter a Walmart from now on.
  18. You are MUCH further ahead money wise/safety to pickup a conversion kit, and JUSTA go disk in the front. Kit will include: master cyl, booster, proportioning block, spindles, rotors, calipers. Number of kits out there with different prices. Do your home work. Ask if the kit comes with the booster to pedal rod. I had to make my own. Ask about booster size. I had to return twice and they finally sent the 9in booster I ordered originally. The rest were too large for my GTO and HIT the valve cover. Measure yours for the correct size. Now is a good time to replace your front rubber lines. More than likely they are 48 year old rubber. Going through the work to install whatever booster you have there is Justa waste of time. It will all be replaced when you do convert to disk anyway. But adding pressure to things such as the OLD rubber lines.....not a good idea.
  19. LMAO.....Epic Where babies are made not served.
