I've had SMI do the carb on the Chevelle and the Camaro and could not be happier with them....I love it that they got rid of the QJET bog. The Camaro does use more gas than before though.

Finally home so I worked on the car trailer. Got chrome center caps and lug nuts for it today. New spare on it and now it ready to go for the season. Rain now so the Chevelle sits in the garage for now.

I actually washed mine today. I think that it has been over 7 months since she had a bath, pretty bad huh ? lol I didn't do much else because I wanted to take her out and drive. Oh yeah and go to my first car show of the season. Great night out with my son Jacob.

Default Front Spoiler

Today I got my front spoiler from UPS and had it on in 30 min. Only needed a ratchet, 7/16" & 1/2" sockets, 7/16" wrench, drill & 1/4" bit and 2 small clamps help. It helps to use ramps if you have them. (I do and didn't use them)

Check it out here http://www.spoilersbyrandy.com/Pages/default.aspx

Wife and I took the Chevelle out to the local burger place tonight. Her idea, I almost fell off the chair when she suggested it. She usually wants nothing to do with the Chevelle.

I've seen the spoilers on more and more cars lately. I'm still on the fence if I like them on the Chevelle's. Looks good on your car.
