    • The Actual POS Camaro

      It occurred to me that since I’ve owned this thing since before Jalopnik was even a thing I’ve never given an overview of it.

      Notice the lovely silver junkyard fender here.

      Here we see the other fender and the hood which were from a 77 that was buried in weeds next to a barn.

      The oh so sexy posterior with the big spoiler. Unfortunately whoever added the spoiler didn’t put in the stronger tension spring so the trunk doesn’t stay open without the help of a piece of wood in the hinge.

      And the lap of luxury! I do have the console and correct shifter to install.

      Last, but not least we have three hundred and fifty cubic inches of malaise POWAH. I think this came from a 70s truck. It had a rebuild at some point in its life but that certainly didn’t add many ponies.

    • New Addition to Family Fleet

      I am tardy in reporting an addition to the family fleet. My wife retired her Infiniti EX35, which she was never that thrilled with, in favor of a 2018 Audi Q5. She even managed to find one in the blue she liked and with the lighter interior that she always goes with if possible. That combination did require us to have CarMax ship it up from California, but it was worth it. Now she absolutely loves her car. It has less than 19,000 miles on it so I count it as practically new, but MaxCare was still purchased. It is still an Audi.

    • RE: What’s the story of your Oppo username?

      @distraxi Mine is as easy as it comes. I own a Camaro. It’s a POS.

      @Nick-Hynds It certainly wasn’t Henry that advocated integration.

    • Camaro inception

      I went down to fill the Camaro’s tank with some ethanol-free gas since it’s probably the last fill up of the season and the gas pump welcomed me with this

      Which was nice. It would have been nicer if I didn’t have to sell a kidney to pay for it.
      I also got a “Camaro wave” from a guy in a 74 or 75 which was a first. Normally guys in shiny Camaros pretend they don’t see the POS.

    • File under: Even a bind squirrel

      I'm stuck in a tourist trap town in Maui while my wife and her sister shops for useless tourist shit, but somehow I've stumbled into a decent bar. Hand mixed drinks, no AC but good use of the trade winds to keep it comfortable, and comfortable bar stools. I have found my spot!

      @davesaddiction Building in a desert would seem to me to be the opposite of sustainable unless the population is kept very low.

      @Manwich I think I'll be happy when he has to pay the $1B penalty for being a twat.

      @Powered_By_Howard Looks better than lutefisk. Not a high bar, but it’s something.

      @Peter_Black Well, yeah if you could afford a Ruf Porsche. Me, I was doing the bidding of Uncle Sam, which had its moments but was not quite Ruf Porsche fun.

    • RE: Paging Rusty-Vandura, Rusty to the phone please

      @fintail At the time I thought the louvers, wheels and two tone were the best parts of the car. Unfortunately that turned out to be all too true.

    • RE: Paging Rusty-Vandura, Rusty to the phone please

      @fintail By now both engines would be solid. On the 78 Aspen that my parents bought new the 318 was an absolute disaster. It spent more time at the dealer than on the road and it still didn't run right. It was a pity because it wasn't a bad looking car for that era. Almost identical to this one without the raised white letter tires.

      We tried planting some in the new place but between that guy and the neighborhood cats it was loved to death.

    • RE: I think I did it

      @PowderHound How did you set the preload? Or is that not a worry for that diff? I ask because the pinion seal is yet another thing that’s leaking on the Camaro and I haven’t done it because I’m worried about not getting it right.

    • RE: I think I will use this on the truck

      @415s30 It makes sense. Carbs are almost always tuned rich since nobody wants to risk being lean and most aren’t using an air fuel ratio gauge to tune a carb.

    • RE: Some vacation things.

      @415s30 We’re going back to Kauai for the first time since the pandemic stated and were really bummed that the Kapa’a Foodland was closed. I guess the old building and the Safeway took its toll. Luckily for us our favorite little food place in that shopping center is still open.
