beat me to it ....I was going to guess that. I know a local man who has a 57 chevy that is supposed to be a factory fuel injected car with the mechanical fuel injection set up ......again very strange.
They did some odd stuff in the past

If you really want it, see if he'll take a $50-$100 deposit to hold it until you get your next paycheck???
Then it would all be yours...
I would even send you a 318 2 bbl carb that I have laying around.... (I think it's in pretty good condition...)
Chevy stuff is mostly what I messed with on my hotrods when I was young. Where the hell did you find that? They are hard to find.
My best friend just got back from deer hunting and told me he shot twice at a nice mule deer buck but missed both shoots so I sent him this.

I have a late 318 2bbl manifold I could send you also. Was in the back of the truck.
that always confused me when I was a kid as to how they call native American people "Indians"
they are not Indians because we are Indians.

That is the correct numbers one for my car. My car is a real fuelie car, but I never got the original engine with it. I would be embarrassed to say what I paid for it. I also have the correct engine and heads stashed away to put it back original one day. Has a 475hp stroker in it now. Lots of 4spd FUN !!
well, not sure I trust that .......what you don't see in the ad is its in the ghetto area ...I wasn't even supposed to be there.
But my cousin went with me and it was in the day.
Are those carter 2 bbl.s ???
The "burden" to listening to 8 track tapes was they only had 4 "programs/sections/channels" that you could go to only. Then you had to listen for the rest of it to play to get to the song that you wanted.... :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
You couldn't just go from song to song.... :violent1: :violent1: :violent1:
Early cassette decks only had two sides to play, and you couldn't jump from song to song...
But the advanced cassette decks could "scan" a tape and go to the next "break"... It would look for a 2-3 second pause (Like between songs on albums), then it would stop at the pause and play. This made it possible to jump from song to song on cassette...
But it would sometimes get "fooled" by a pause or slow spot in the song.... :banghead:
I would thin 1500 or more. Hard to find and the dizzy to is big bucks.
Got the fuel tank up yesterday and the drivers side running board welded in the mounts. looks good. I thought I was on king of the hill yesterday had Ron, Chuck (the body guy down the street) and a few others coming and going by all day drinking my beer. I was on a roll getting things done then........

Yes, carter 2 bbls.
They are notorious for the accelerator pump wearing out and then loosing it's shot. They are just leather "cups" that ride/seal along a cast iron bore in the carburetor and the leather wears out and looses it's seal to the bore in the carb. A "jiffy kit" (rebuild kit) will have a new gasket and accelerator pump to replace it.
Trick: smear a light coat of grease around the outside of the leather of the accelerator pump to help lubricate it when you install it...
That's why I like to convert my 318's to 4 bbls. I don't get the accelerator pump wearing issue, and I can convert to electric choke, which runs much better...
interesting how technology has evolved.
I only had the pleasure of messing with minidisc as a teen (early 2000s) and then I went to my first I-pod around 06 and been there since.
The early I-pods were not really that cool because of the stupid software. I didn't really enjoy them until I figured out how to jail break it.
I-pod hardware is unbeatable but their software is for monkeys.
LOL!
We had an engineer in the lab that liked to go hunting during deer season. He usually had the same story about spotting one, but not getting a good line/shot... #-o
So his co-workers used to give him a hard time and ask, "Did you go deer watching again this weekend" when he came back on Mondays.... :finga:
chiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiivvvveeeeeeeeee
Yes, you young ones don't know the hardships that we had to go through back then.... [-X
You've got it so good/easy now days... :headbang:
Like walking to school every day... Uphill both ways, backwards, with no shoes, in the winter... and I had to get to the one room school house first so I could build the fire and heat it up before everyone got there for school.... (etc, etc....) :---) :scratch:
(That's the sob story that our parents used to tell us back in the day...) :crybaby:
56 I believe.... #-o
Here ya go Rani.
57's
Mitch has a nice vette....
The dog looks pretty cool too....
The dog looks pretty cool too....
not claiming to be a chevy person here but 57 has the fins and 56 has the single cone lens .....55 is a solid lens that's goes with the contour and 58 has either 2 or 3 cone lenses horizontally
the vette is interesting ...very different ...bet its fun
I prefer the 71 'vettes.
But I love Labradors.
But I love Labradors.
A guy we knew in high school always used to brag about his dad's 56, and bring it to school once in a while...
They are very similar body style with the fins, just different tail lights and trim pieces...
Telling my age now. I have owned it for almost 40 yrs. Got when I was 19 years old. Could never afford it now if I wanted to buy one. But I did restore it myself.
