It was great Thanks

I’ll give you credit. That was a pretty cool vid.

That video was awesome!!!

Good stuff Graeme! Love it!

Thanks Sam.

When I have some time I might rig the car with 4-5 cameras and set up my pro HD unit and tripod to film a handful of scenes downtown in the city at like 6AM on a Sunday. That should provide some great scenes to really have some fun with.

All I need is a sinister black 69 Chevelle to be chasing me around and stalking me throughout the streets. The industrial parks might work well too...with less chance of the popo being around.

:3gears:

Lol for some reason that music makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Anyone who ever watched these car chase movies gotta admit you just never forget it! Thanks again waiting for the next installment :)

I'm on it - uncorked of course - I'll put a couple of dog dishes on the rear steelies for dramatic ejection on hard turns!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any way to see all these pictures and videos that used to be posted here? Thanks

I moved all the picture folders around a couple of years ago not realizing it would break all the links. Give me a couple of hours and I will try and repopulate what I can for this thread.

OK...I replaced many of the broken links with links to a rebuilt folder and uploaded the video that I could find. Not perfect but helps to have fixed up this thread.

You got some weird things going on with that oil pump pickup. I like your choice of oil pan gaskets.....the only one I will use.

Those pictures were taken while it was being assembled but do not show the changes that were made after the fact. What was seen and taken in that shot was a stock Moroso 24350 deep pickup that was purchased with a Moroso 22111 pump and was planned for use with a Moroso deep pan. We didn't like that Moroso pickup or the pan so it was changed for a Milodon kick out Pan and Milodon deep pickup that I had kept aside for another build. We then changed out the pickup and the pan for the Milodon parts and it was all clay modeled and clearance fit to the new pan after this picture was taken. I kept the Moroso 22111 HV pump and which was previously disassembled and blueprinted before being mocked up.

Here are a couple of pictures of the Moroso pump taken apart for blueprinting and prior to installation. Also shown below are a couple of pictures of the Milodon pan used after the fact. I still have this motor and it is now going into my current 69 Z build.

Excellent.......I feel much better! How was the 302 power in high altitude?

Figured it was time to revive this thread since the car is back in my garage again. I had first right of refusal when I sold this little 68 back in 2018, and just bought it back yesterday. Such a cool little car that I could not pass up this opportunity to own it, and drive it again. For the record...this is the third time I have owned this car.

In 2018, it was sold with a freshly rebuilt drive train, and the friend I sold it to had only put 275 miles on it over the past 5 years. It's as nice now as it ever was, and makes for such a fun little driver car. Frank appeared a little apprehensive selling it back yesterday, so we joked with him wiping a tear while his wife grabbed this shot of us. One happy...one sad. (LOL)

Congrats Graeme. Gonna drive it as is or do you have plans?

As Shaq says;

Just fill and chill.:worship:

Third time's a charm????

Hoping that's the plan for me this time around Bill.

It really is such a cool car that I just had to latch onto it again.

Congratulations. I almost purchased my 1968 SS/RS for a third time but, like a dope, I passed. Now it's in Australia so I think that option is off the table for me.

Sorry to hear that Dave. Once the cars go overseas, they seldom ever make it back right?

This car has always stayed local to Alberta, Canada. Sold new at GSL Chevrolet in Calgary and then restored by Chris Guta in the mid eighties. Since then, it's been owned by (5) local collectors and (1) NHL player. Two of us have have been lucky enough to own it a couple times, with me being the first to hit a third stint. :worship:

Going to take it out for a good deserving cruise today and row some gears. :3gears:

You and Tim have a thing for light blue 68's that keep coming back to your garage.....:burnout:

I know right. I saw Tim got the Harry Man car back and was instantly jealous of him. Then the opportunity presented itself for me to grab this one back and I wasted no time.

To me, these two colors look so good on 68's. :headbang:

Congrats!!!!

I always loved that car! Congratulations

I always liked that car…I remember a picture of it on the bridge. Screamer small block stick…doesn’t get much better!

Here you go David. One of my favorite shots! :beers:

Here's one other picture I took that same day I shot the car on the bridge.
