When I had to get new head gaskets I was without mine for almost 3 weeks! That was long enough!

Try June 2001 through May 2009 while completely rebuilding my entire car...i did pick up an 84 cheep in Oct 2001 when i decided to go with a complete dissasembly to rebuild every part of the 87...i expected it to be about 3 years but life threw a few ringgers in on me along the way.

My 'Vette has been in the paint shop for 8 weeks now. As the only thing I have to drive is my 8 mpg 1973 Chevrolet pickup truck, I really miss my "vette.

Just dropped mine off at the paint shop to repair damage done by a drunk driver. I'm already dreading the drive home.

Waited 3 weeks when I did the diff ratio. Got the ring and pinion from the States Richmond gears but then the seal kit was all wrong and had to wait longer?
