Hello guys and girls.
I am new to the site only in registration. I have been using the site for a while now researching various things over the years. I am active on BonnevillePro, w-body.com and mymonte.com based on past vehicles. Currently though, I don't own any vehicle that fits into those catagories.
I sold my bonneville at the beginning of the year to buy a 1970 blazer which is my new project, and supplemented it with a 1970 GMC Suburban for parts. I also have a 1996 Acura Integra GSR 4 door as my DD (Stock, nothing ricered.) and that takes care of my 5 speed needs for now.
I have been big into the bonnevilles until recently when I sold mine, having three before. I also dabbled in the W-bodies with 2 98 Lumina LTZ's, a 98 intrigue and a 00 Regal GSE. I researched, but never began a 5 speed swap for the last bonneville, going so far as to gather almost every part necessary to go it that wasn't custom for both the 282 and the 284 5 speeds. Once I sold my last bonneville, I started selling off the 5 speed swaps. I have sold pretty much everything, but still have a couple things hanging around.
I still love working on cars, and bought a house last year with a 3 car garage with an oil change pit. Unfortunately I have an immobile blazer parked over it, but am hoping to soon change that. I also have a 2002 alero I am in charge of maintenance on, so I am still in the 60degreeV6 realm, and is what I use the site most for.
I am also an avid junkyarder, having the local pick-n-pull within eyesite of my job. This works out well as I can go there at lunch and scope stuff out if someone needs a part, get pictures, and then go get it the next day/weekend. If anyone needs anything, feel free to ask.
And lastly, if you happen to be in the area, I am always open to meeting up, or helping out with any car-related things.
Hope this is a good intro.
