Grease Monkey Garage

[Sagebrush33]

After visiting the ''bench'' and seeing @Canadian farm boy 's latest work, I thought to myself, we need a grease monkey thread. A thread for modified cars and trucks, show queens, and bikes. Custom made work trucks welcomed too.

Post em if ya got em slackers.

Those old American and English bikes would bite alot of riders at stop signs. Of course because people were used to the backward shifter and brake of the rest of the world.

You fellas have been displaying some awesome toys and projects here.
Wrenching was my first trade..... and still in my blood.

I've got a '96 F350 Reg cab and SRW. Currently has a 460 under the hood with a C6 auto. Been wanting to cram in a Cummins 6bt for some time now. I keep changing my mind on the tranny though. I like shifftin a stick but appreciate an auto for morning coffees and wintertime plowing. ZF6 or Allison 6spd ....... When I get her back home I'll take some picks. Truck is still standing tall on factory springs.

Real Z? I've got a soft spot for 67-68 1st gens. I had one of each.

That red 68 of yours is gorgeous.

No, it was an inline 6 3 speed on the floor car. Now has a solid roller 377(400 block) 256/260 Duration, .615 lift on a 106 lsa, afr210 full cnc port, t56 magnum(close ratio) and the s60 4.11 gears. Still carbureted, qft 750.

I like clones. You don't get a guilty feeling doing mods to them.

Nice set up. I love natural aspiration.

L34 Torana I once had.
You guys over the pond might have to do a bit of googling on this one.

Interesting lil car. Four door, even...
Front end reminds me a lil like an AMC Javelin. Sort of.
Definitely rare, and I'm pretty keen on identifying most cars, or at least place their origins. This one, I wouldn't have a clue.

 

[Sagebrush33]

That looks a lot like a 75ish nova

Yea it does. Even with 4 doors. Deck lid's a bit shorter but none the less, I see the late Nova resemblance.

Made by Holden or your GM.
L34 was made specifically for racing.
Updated version of a Holden LH SLR500 Torana.(1974).
