1974 DL sedan project
75skunkaroo replied to 75skunkaroo's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
hhmmm....portland, thats where my camera is:rolleyes: . anyways, i've had the car for 2 or 3 weeks, which is about i'll say about 70 hours i been working on it. i pulled the valve covers after draining the h2o/oil, and found in each cover something resembling a small freeze plug, which i figure is prolly why the car got parked. i'll pop those back in and see if that fixes the prob*cross fingers*. -mike -

well, it's time to re-change the oil:-\ , i've never seen something take so long to fill the radiator, thought 'hmmm, this is strange' checked the oil and sure 'nuff it was almost half way up the stick:banghead: . hopefully it is only the head gaskets, and i'm glad i just ordered some. so.... time to pull the engine and check it out. -mike -

how much does it cost to insure your 80s soobs?
75skunkaroo replied to s'ko's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
$120 a month liability on my '75. it was the same for my '79 mercury, and the insurance lady told me "you can go buy a new corvette, and it will stay the same price". it goes down to $60 in june:headbang: -mike
