Roll Call Houston: How many cars are running VS down under repair?

Hello all, been REALLY busy this year but I'm still here. Mine is still up and running. I drove it once this year earlier this month to my Boss's birthday party / car show.

What's the current status of everyone's cars?

Re: Roll Call Houston: How many cars are running VS down under repair?

drove it two weeks ago o the Houston f body meet. now she is prolly going to be parked for a while. got new acc carpet on the way from 1aauto. so getting ready to tear the whole interior out. not getting in a hurry either. also have the del a lum bushings, sway bar bushings, and ball joints to install as well as front coil springs. maybe rear ones also. while interior is all out we all know how that goes. wish I had the money for seats but not yet. want to clean everything and prolly paint some things. other than that can drive her anytime!!!!!!

Mine has been down since last august.

Currently rebuilding a 355 for it.

Hopefully I can have it running sometime next year.

Re: Roll Call Houston: How many cars are running VS down under repair?

After owning mine 16 years and driving it less than probably 6 of those years I'm tempted to part it out as much as I hate to. 1500 miles on it from LS swap like 8 years ago all the parts are still in new condition. Hopefully I can get into another 3rdgen later on and keep it stock.

Re: Roll Call Houston: How many cars are running VS down under repair?

My car has been running for the last 3-4 months. It was down for about a year and a half due to an issue with stalling after running for 15-20 mins. I finally resolved the issue by replacing the stock fuel injectors with Bosch III's.
