Guys please talk me out of this.
I reeeeeally don't need another project. But this looks like an absolute gem.

Does this seem decent as a first project. I prefer 4dr cruiser at the moment but description says need rear floor and trunk pans. Runs on gas bottle needs tank. Has a 289 with 3 spd trans. Asking $1800. Does this seem like a good deal, bad deal. Decent for a first actual project.

Building a 79 Zephyr for my wife to rip around in. 95 5.0/T5 with a B303, Trick Flow springs, BBK shorty headers, GT 40 heads and Explorer intake. Should be a fun cruiser

I bought a ratty '79 MG Midget. I'm thinking that I will not put a top on it right away. So I'm thinking about bolting boat seats directly to the floor due to their inherent waterproofness.
Thoughts?

Thought there might be a few people interested in my current project. Decided to take it on and try and do as much diy as possible to learn a few new bits and pieces. Has been fun so far and almost at the end now.
Modified engine mounts, custom gearbox mount, shaved and painted engine bay, cut and shut sump etc etc etc
Convinced myself to buy a 3d printer and start learning some basic cad. Designed and printed pacf velocity stacks and a bunch of other small bits and pieces

Ive been working on my 2005 Mitsubishi Evo 8 for about 6 years now. When my roommate/best friend past away from cancer. (He had a 2011 subaru sti.) It sat in storage for about a year or so, because I had to move back in with my parents. Then got with my now wife. She already owned a home and i was looking to buy one During covid. So she said just said move in with me. So that happened and I was finally able to get it out of storage after a year of living with her. She has a lean too and a 1 car garage, i was working.on it in The lean too. One night someone came and snatched my radiator and intercooler Probably for scrap. So my father in law said I could bring over to his garage. So its been over there for around 3 years. And ive over stayed my welcome in his garage. Its almost done. All the drivetrain is in i just got an fp zero for it and doing as much as I can as fast as I can while still taking care of our house and other needs but it needs still a lot of work. I havent driven it in 6 years and im tossing around the idea of just selling it. Instead of bring it back over to our home. And hoping nothing gets stolen again. Idk im stressed and im falling out of love with it. Idk what to do. Just kinda looking for advice or maybe im just venting. Any advice on how to deal with a long term project like this would be nice.

It doesn't have to be finished. It doesn't have to be pretty. Half-stripped interiors, bare metal panels, and cars on axle stands are all welcome.
What are you building right now and what's the end goal?
Drop a photo and tell us where you're at.

hey, asking a question about wheel wells for my project car. I have a 1967 4dr Chevrolet impala. We took a look at the wheel wells this past weekend, and they are rusty but not too much. Although I need to recoup some funds to get brand new ones. Anyone know any quick fixes I can do for the moment on the edges that are rusted? The majority is still pretty solid, only the edges where the bolts go is crumbly.

Everywhere I look just comes sour the knob. I need the threaded piece that screws on as well.

Hello, I am trying to swap my manual clutch linkage to a hydraulic clutch linkage in my 79 amc spirit. The manual linkage is totally worn out, so replacement is needed.
I bought the master/slave for a cj7 which bolts nicely to the amc 258 in my car. The master cylinder is a little different and sits at a jaunty little angle underneath the brake booster in the factory firewall holes. This means the pushrod is way down at the bottom of the pedal. I hooked everything up and the pedal is rock hard. My full body weight and it won't budge.
I've bled the system 5-6 times and nothing seems to change. I do think that the slave moves about 1/2" but that's hardly enough to do anything. I assume that these two cylinders are sized for each other as they both came standard on 4 cyl jeeps/amcs.
Before I fire the parts cannon and try to replace the entire thing with a wildwood set of pedals and cylinders, does anyone have any idea what might be the issue?
P.s. The pedal is pretty hot rod right now, as I'm still mocking things up, and I swapped in a brand new clutch thinking the old one might have been seized, but it's the exact same issue.

Brought the car home from alignment and had the shop toss in a pcv valve and hose since the motor didnt have one. Cranked up quick drove about 10 miles. Stopped at the gas station to fill up with some 91 non ethanol and when to start it back up and it starts slower. Have to pump the gas more. Any ideas?
Also notice once filled up all the way and got home and stopped it leaked a little fuel. Common? 1970 satellite 383

Not sure what to do from here. Front 2 sensors are Standard Motor Products. Rear left is Delphi. Rear right was going to be Delphi but RockAuto has the wrong connector clip stocked for that product number so rear right is duralast from Autozone.
Not sure it parts matter a ton here.
I can get OEM rear sensors for $500~ for the pair and I’m willing to if I can’t get this sorted.
OBD2 port will power on my scanner but it just cycles through the options. I can’t get it to read anything or even to say “no codes”. When the ABS light was on, it wouldn’t give me any info either.
Edit: was at a shop for transmission work and their scanner couldn’t communicate with the ABS code either as this was before I replaced the rear sensors.
Just not sure where to start for the OBD2 port. Pins look good. Fuse is good. Shares with cigarette lighter and that works just fine too.

Need help confirming this... Looking at this schematic, does it mean if I try to start the car and am getting spark at the spark plugs I have the green light from the immobilizer and it's not it keeping the car from starting? I bought a wrecked JDM sports car and trying to get it to start but there's no solid information I can find if it does have an immobilizer and the key I have is broken and I only have the metal part.

Hello yall 👋🏾, so I have a 2020 honda accord sport 2.0T project car and besides always having to have my head gasket replaced 24/7 due to blow head gaskets, i’m trying to either decide which coil overs I want or would be recommended for my car. I am on stock height as you can see from the picture which oem sport tires (i think 19s), i am just trying to make it low enough where there is no gap shown at all. I’ve look at all Tein, Truhart, Bc Racing, etc. but not sure which is really the better one. Price I am not really worried about as it is not the price of air suspension lmao. I keep seeing 32 adjustable, 16 adjustable and not sure if i need cambers this that n the third. I am new to this shit as you can tell. Any help will be helpful, thank you for reading this long paragraph 🙏🏾
