I had to remove the gravel approach to the garage.

Tractor did most of it but where it meets the driveway had to be done by hand.

Pickaxe had to be used to bust it up.

Evening all.


Fuq British engineering. Holy chit!


How many of you have had the fuggin pleasure of twisting into Gumby like positions to work under that damn bonnet???? WTH were the engineers thinking!!!!


Realized a part was missing in the mouth and the ONLY way to install it was to remove the stone guard in front of the radiator. Never knew removing 6 screws could be such a PITA!

Trade you for 4 plus hours change 4 little coolant gaskets.
Had to remove everything down to firewall to change a HVAC controller. All day project.

Good old GM engineering....

Raise engine to remove spark plugs(Monza), drill holes in firewalls and inner fenders to get to spark plugs. Not uncommon to drop a cradle to change an alternator.
Blower motor just about inaccessible on my caddy, have to disassemble to get in and out without moving motor forward. 3 hrs is good time for me.

My next project might be another ‘56 Chevy. It’s like working on a pole barn compared to these smaller classics and I blew the doors off a fairly modern Porsche with one running a 327 4sp rock crusher. That car was god awful fast for as big as it was.

Good night all and God Bless, especially you folks suffering for whatever reason.
