On the off chance someone is on here looking for parts. Though they would be crazy to ship so you'd have to live nearby ;) http://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/car/317448249.html http://www.crazyrusty.com/images/Vehicle%20Album/1979%20Chevrolet%20Stepside /index.html
Re: [Chevelle-list] 69 chevelle rear disc brake
Clyde, Before you buy Baer. take a look at www.touring-classics.com. Much cheaper for the same basic brake kit.

Re: [Chevelle-list] OT - Master Cylinder Question
The disc portion of a master cylinder will move a lot higher volume of fluid when you step on the brake. Compare the size of a wheel cylinder to a caliper. The caliper needs a lot more volume to work properly.. I don't know what problems you would have with a disc/drum M/C on a drum/drum vehicle. But I'd bet that the front wheels would lockup way too soon..

I have a 1970 GMC truck with non-power MC and drums all around. Can I install this MC/booster setup on my truck? If not, can somebody explain to me what the differences are between a drum/drum MC and a disc/drum MC? Thanks! Larry Shouse -- Rick Schaefer 72 TPI El Camino

Re: [Chevelle-list] Help bleeding brakes
The por. valve has a plunger in it so say when you blow a wheel cyl. or lose fluid at a fast rate the por. valve plunger moves and cuts the fluid off either to the front or rear so that you will have some brakes to stop. - Original Message - From: "Michael Pell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "The Chevelle Mailing List" Sent: Friday, April 20, 2007 5:19 PM Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Help bleeding brakes Thanks, but what do you mean by 'off center"? -- I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there isn't, Than live my life as if there isn't, And die to find out there is. -Blaise Pascal Check out my webpage at http://www.ProStreetCar.com TREMEC Distributor at http://www.5speedTransmissions.com Team Chevelle member #1778 (Gold), ACES member #1377 Hoosier State Chevelle Assoc (http://www.IndianaChevelles.com) #6 Mark Tibbits wrote: What brake lines did you replace? The por. valve might be off centered is the brake light on? You might have to have to press. bleed the system.If you are bleeding the fronts you might have to bleed the rear first. Some times if the por. valve is off center you can drive the car as long as you have some brake pedal and then try again. If the brake light is on the por, vale is off center. - Original Message - From: "Michael Pell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "ChevelleList" Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2007 7:59 PM Subject: [Chevelle-list] Help bleeding brakes I replaced the MC and and brake lines, and can't get any fluid to flow through the lines. I did successfully bleed the MC seperately, so I know that part is working. I even , gulp, read the directions. Open the bleeder open on the brake pedal downstroke, close it before brake pedal gets to the bottom. I can hear and see the air moving a bit in the clear hose from the bleeder to the cup . Any tips on how to get the fluid down the lines?

[Chevelle-list] old gas pumps
I just love these old gas pumps. Been wanting one for a while , but they are s expensive at the car shows.
Re: [Chevelle-list] Old gas stations
This is awesome. I'm too young to remember when gas stations looked like this, apart from the handful I'd encounter on the way to family reunions in Kentucky. To me, these pictures are another example of why I love old American cars and motorcycles. These things scream "America" to me. There's a certain style and substance about something like a 53 Buick Roadmaster, or an old Harley or one of these gas stations that is, at least to me, distinctly American, and it is sad to see that sort of style and substance disappearing under wrecking balls and auto crushers.
