RE: [Chevelle-list] New to the El Camino world ( tell it like it is)

My sentiments exactly.  Let’s get back to talking cars.   EFI update:  My EFI system is running and drivable.  I drove my car about 50-60 miles over the weekend with zero problems.  It’s not fully tuned, but it starts and drives.  I’m stuck with base timing of 10 degrees (no mechical or vacuum advance) for the time being.  My Megasquirt-II processor showed up, which will allow me to do computer controlled timing too, but something didn’t work right and I had to ship it back.   It’s pretty cool when you start the car from stone cold and it idles perfect… :-)   -Dave     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Holleman Sent: Tuesday, April 12, 2005 9:53 AM To: The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] New to the El Camino world ( tell it like it is)   The key lesson for us from this post is to respect another's passion for whatever vehicle spins their wheels. I came of age(turned sixteen) in 1967. My passion has always been for the cars built between 64/67, with the 65 being the apple of my eye. I did not care for the change that took place in the Chevelles in 68. Even today they are somewhat so so to my eye. It's all in your personal perspective. I have learned to love all the old cars, yes even some of the F--ds. And I have seen some really well done late model El Caminos.  It's all about the passion.

I had a documented! Protecto-Plate 1970 SS, and sold it for a good coin and bought a 1968 SS undocumented except for VIN tag. My beleif is a "68" is great because there aren't as many on the road, and I'm not like 3 other Velle's in the subdivision!!! Not chiming in to argue, just voicing what is fact.   Sincerely,   Jeff Wysocki   -------------- Original message -------------- In a message dated 4/11/2005 12:30:56 AM Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: WELL LARRY ITS A 69 POST BIG BLOCK WHICH WOULD BLOW YOUR'S AWAY, IN VALUE, AND LOOKS SO MIND YOUR OWN BUISNESS Big stinkin' deal.  I know 3 guys that have the same car and unless it has documentation it's considered a CLONE.  Besides, everyone knows that 1970 is the best looking and most desirable.   Regardless, you're still a dick.  Hey, you're the one that says speak the truth, well there it is.   Tom
