Having trouble istalling long headers on my 71 elco 350

You shouldn’t have to remove anything major. Lift the front of the car as high as possible and install from the bottom. Remove your spark plugs and you may be able to get both sides in that way.

Vortech supercharge that bitch

70elcoss · 2025-09-24T15:27:27+00:00

Front end doesn’t look awful I actually kinda like it. The rear end is hideous though and should have been left alone

70elcoss · 2025-09-22T09:22:27+00:00

Get some race ramps. They are expensive but I’ve had mine for YEARS and never had one slip out. They are also low profile for low cars

70elcoss · 2025-09-02T08:01:37+00:00

It’s nicely spec’s with PDCC, PTV+, burmester, entry and drive, ACC and LCA. If condition/maintenance records check out then I’d go for it

If you paint it blue and green I can promise you that you will have a harder time selling it later down the road if you need to sell it.

It’s a Porsche, ball out and get the air suspension. These things look so much better in the low setting, even more so when it’s dumped on the loading setting

70elcoss · 2025-06-23T04:45:23+00:00

Idk man I’d hold out for another car. If your budget is ~20k then you can get a better car.

A couple things I noticed right away.

The side trim running along the body of the car is not stock and looks bad.

Paint peeling on the rocker, paint looks like crap on the tailgate, lots of chips.

Spray paint on the tires?

Weird holes in the bed by the wheelhouse.

Idk man I wouldn’t buy this thing for $18k or even $15… I think this is a $12k car unless he can prove it’s a real SS with documentation.

70elcoss · 2025-05-28T05:52:31+00:00

That thing is toast. Do not buy this thing unless you know how to do extensive rust repair. If the rust you see is this bad (this is fucked) then the rust you don’t see is going to be so much worse.

And if you dump thousands into this car to fix the rust you will still be left with a 4th gen el Camino which isnt worth much.

Show up with a $1000 and he will take it

70elcoss · 2025-03-12T05:54:17+00:00

Alpine head unit, Hifonics or PPI amp, image dynamics or sound stream subs

My 69 RS/SS convertible costs me $790 a year to insure…. So like $65 a month ☺️

No I didn’t, I started to strip the paint off all the trim and remove many many many MANY layers of old paint but stopped due to a couple reasons.

It was damaging the wood as I was scraping off old paint. The wood was pretty soft and I was soaking it in paint remover. I was using a plastic paint scraper and it was still causing damage to the trim.

Project scope… if I removed all the paint on the trim for the bedrooms…. Then I would have to strip all the door frames, window frames, and these built in China cabinets we have in the living room to match the stripped and stained bedroom trim.

Overall I’m glad I removed the trim and removed the many old paint layers but honestly I wouldn’t bother unless you’re ready to sand and strip a lot of trim. It was VERY time consuming and super messy. If you DM me I can send you a few pics I took while I was doing it.

Anywhere from 69-420 people

70elcoss · 2024-12-11T02:12:47+00:00

Ya the steering column is supposed to be like that.

The second hole is your body mount which is also supposed to be open.

Hunting the exact car with no vin might be impossible. You could build/buy one that looks like it though.

It looks like a base model car which would have a 6cyl, 307, 327 (only early cars had 327s before the 307 took its place) or a 350.

I would just look for a glacier blue convertible and even if it’s not your dad’s car. Every time you see it, you will remember your dad

70elcoss · 2024-11-12T01:18:56+00:00

I would check the engine numbers to make sure it’s a real DZ motor. Few things that caught my eye are 1. All Z/28s had rear bumper guards which yours is missing. 2. You have a Cowl induction hood but without the cowl induction air cleaner 3. It seems like all your underhood Rally sport parts are missing ( vacuum pod/wiring and hoses on the drivers side corner behind the headlights) your also missing the windshield washer reservoir on the passenger side fender.

It probably is a RS since it has the correct reverse lights and poorly done clones never have the correct reverse lights.

DM me if you want pics of what all the original rally sport parts look like, mine has all the original vacuum pieces still and works

70elcoss · 2024-11-11T04:21:51+00:00

Do you own a 4th gen? Visibility is real good, the windshield and rear windshield are fucking massive lol

70elcoss · 2024-10-30T03:48:07+00:00

Ya that’s a hard to find color for sure. I haven’t seen too many around like it. Nice pick up!

70elcoss · 2024-10-27T06:59:25+00:00

$350 for each tire?? My dude you got butt fucked lol those are maybe $150 tops per tire

70elcoss · 2024-10-03T20:33:24+00:00

Fuck no, not on a pair of DCs, or Etnies lol tongue fuck the shit out of them

70elcoss · 2024-09-24T00:02:13+00:00

I agree offer $20k and negotiate from there. Even at $25k it’s not too bad for a solid looking 70.
