Met some new friends at the Fathers day cruise.. I got to hang out with a great bunch of guys with 47-54s.. I really want one badly now :whine:...
I saw 5 window trucks everywhere !!! Attachment 762592 A really nice burb . The owner has had it for over 15 years now,He has driven it to Ohio and back several times. Another sweet 5 window on the far side Attachment 762593 Talked to Big Jack @ RPM productions, promoters of Northwest Motorfest, and other local car events. They just bought a 60-66 super stretched Suburban , The extra long, multi-door model used for park service tours and limos. They are customizing it into a support truck for their events, and are in contact with some of the truck mags who have expressed interested in it for future articles. He hinted something about a Vista Cruiser roof section grafted in the back. Jack is a local radio disc jockey , so I know it will have a sound system beyond comparison. Cannot wait to see it . A perfect use for a big long Suburban!! |
Re: Bubba's recycling project

Emmett Idaho cruise July 16
Attachment 776581 the 69 Chevelle in my signature Attachment 776582 Went to Emmett Idaho "Lost in the 50'S" cruise. IMO the best car event in Idaho. I took daughters truck over in the morning and went to the show and swap meet , then headed home to cool off and return her truck so she could go to work at the Meridian Speedway circle track. I returned around 4:30 PM for the street cruise. They close off the whole main street from one end of town to the other. Open to Pre-80 cars and trucks only. At least 5 bands were playing and lots of BBQ and street food vendors.. the food smelled wonderful!!! Daughter came over as the attendance at the track was way low because everyone was at the cruise!! So she got off work early and still was able to attend. Brought the 69 Chevelle to cruise in.. Had a little trouble starting in the HOT evening after cruising slow and with the ethanol fuel trying to vapor lock it every time you stop. We just watched the temp gauge and kept moving. The streets and sidewalks really fill up with people as the evening cools off. The lower picture was taken pretty early in the afternoon . It was standing room only later.. Found Valdez and Cokeb , Rbar and Imperial Kustom Valdez cruised around with us most of the evening as his truck needed gas and he was enjoying looking around at the sights (girls) and not driving..........:lol: |

Attachment 776606 At the park .. Had to be 700-800 cars entered
Attachment 776609 The cruise was a little rough on the 64. The truck had sat for several years before we bought it and really had a thick sludge problem in the oil and the motor oil is always really dirty. As the summer heats up, now we are having lifter problems. I have 15/40 diesel oil in now and the lifters sometimes click until they pump up. I have adjusted them twice and they still randomly click. sometimes they dont click. It just comes and goes. I poured ATF down the carb Sunday morning after the cruise and smoked out the front yard and tried to clean the top end , I poured Marvel Mystery oil in the gas tank and the oil and I am changing the oil this weekend back to Valvoline 10-30 racing oil, Which has the ZDDP additive. I did install the new chrome valve cover... looks faster with the chrome:chevy: or maybe it is the Offenhauser !!!! |

Re: Bubba's recycling project
Looks nice and cool. The truck does look fast. Maybe try synthic oil it really thin. I use it. I heard it causes leaks but I don't have any. I haven't burned any oil ether. Maybe the guy was'nt lying when he said the engine was just rebuilt.;)

Re: Bubba's recycling project
Sounds like you had to much to drink.:lol::lol::lol:

Re: Bubba's recycling project
I was told back in the old days they ran 30 weight in the summer and 20 weight in the winter.. I am thinking the 15/40 may be a little thick and the hot temperature is still moving a little sludge around.. The marvel mystery oil should help clean it up..
I have been a little hesitant to use it until now , as not to disturb things too much and cause other problems. But then I found a guy with a 283 at the swap meet. I am holding out for a 327, but the 283 is an option.:chevy: |

Bubba could you post a picture of your voltage regulor? My batt went dead I put in a new alt and reg. I'm not sure about how the reg plugs in. It has a main 4 way plug but then i was looking under it and I see another single plug? When I gor hit it wreaked all that stuff so I don't know how it goes back together. I've been charging my batt. about once a week.:waah:
