haha
the guy before me must have had a lot of beans

 

So have you found your camera yet Mr Beans?

 

hahayestomorrow. i will try to upload the pics and show you all

 

Mr. Beans,,,

 

well, i cant download the rest of the pics for some reason
my computer wont accept it

but, i figured it give you guys some statistics of the car

original A-833 4-speed

original dana 60 w/3.54 gears

4 wheel drum brake car

no power anything

only options are head rests and am radio

440 block
bored out .30
915 original heads exhaust enlarged to 1.80
compression a little higher the than stock 10.1-1, probably a little higher than 10.25-1
edelbrock cam
edelbrock carb
hedman headers 2.5''
electronic ignition
runs on 93 octane, and surprisingly can get 16-18 on highway

 

How do you like your hedman headers? mine on my j10 use to leak like crazy all the time.

 

great looking car. can't wait to see it this summer. Did you re-skin the seats?

 

I like the headers, but i have blown out the gaskets connecting to the head a few times though, but never the collector gasket

i had the seats re-skin with new skins

funny thing with this car, the guy i bought it from had all new seat covers, and had bought other things for the car, and never did anything with it
well, you know what they say, another mans lose is another mans gain

 

im glad you got the car 67 as at least you no what to do with her and how to treat her right and guess we are to call you mr.Beans now ?? hahaha

 

 

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA (with some droil coming out of the corner of my mouth).

That is a nice GTX. I've always loved the look of the GTXs.

 

beautiful car!

 

Nice pic bro, looks better in this one, good job man.

 

Wow your GTX looks great, you've changed the looks alot...keep up the good work.

 

thanks a lot guys

its real fun to drive, and even more fun when people look at it and ask me if it is a chevelle

 

haha
ya
whenever im in it, people are always asking what kind of car it is

another thing that gets me, when people are looking over the engine at a show, and i walk up to them, they ask me if it is a 383 (it says 440 on the HUGE aircleaner covering most of the engine)
haha

 

haha
thats a good idea

 

LOL

Or just say "383? I though this was a Chevelle?" With a puzzled look on your face.

 

Thats funny and sad at the same time...it seems most people could answer most their own questions if they would slow down and read

 

There's nobody dumber than people.
