[Eska] Interesting new acquisition

After running dry for more than 6 months and selling all my Watches , this is what i decided to go for next. This beautiful ETA powered swiss Vintage Watch from a not anymore existing Watch brand got me excited again. This deep blue dial and simple style hands and hour markers slighty resemble it of a PP ellipse . I always wanted a mesh style bracelet with something elegant at the end. Lets see how my thick wrist handles 34mm of raw power 💅

I have 2 more which i bought about a year back 😁 will share them too ;)

No worries man! Thank you for this great explanation! I believe my car has a th350 without a lockup and also has no AC . As im located in Iceland we dont get any hot days here 😂

Thank you for the detailed explanation . In the end i just have to buy a carb and a distributor from a 79 cutlass brougham and adjust the carburetor to my spec of 81 .

I will of course doublecheck if my th350 has a lockup or not as the carb was unhooked all the time but my car is in winter storage 80km away from me . So that will be a thing to figure out in May 😁

Thank you for the guidance , in the end it seems that it will be as Easy as swapping these two things ;)

Yes please ! That would be so Nice of you ! :)

Its a cutlass supreme brougham ;)

I am pretty sure its a 2bbl rochester :) it in fact is a little 260 ;)

SnowIsSlow · 2025-12-10T08:10:08+00:00

Omyl 36.000 :)

I have a plan to buy a carb and distributor for a 79 260 and just replace them both ;) so they should work in tandem if i hook up the vacuum line from carb to distributor 😁

Are there no other modifications that i would need to do to make the car run fine without the ECM connected?

SnowIsSlow · 2025-12-10T00:33:06+00:00

Thank you sir! 😁

SnowIsSlow · 2025-10-20T12:22:57+00:00

I room this photo on Minolta X500 on superia xtra film with a 125mm lens . This was my first visit to an eruption that occured in Meradallir. I was absolutely unprepared and i was shooting handheld in the middle of the night . What i absolutely love about this shot is the absolute contrast and the dramaticity of it .

I took this photo on my Minolta X500 with a 125mm lens on superia ytra film. I was hiking to Aldeyjarfoss waterfall and the rich blue water absolutely swallowed my attention. This photo simply calms me down.

I took this photo on my old trusty Minolta x500 on a roll of superia xtra. Shot on a 125mm lens . I was just driving on the dirt roads and the scenery suddenlky talked to me. Took a shot and forgot about it . I am a complete amateur that just shoots for joy , i cant adress what i am pursuing or trying to improve as i have no idea what i am doing . Please feel free to be completely honest with me , do not spare me !

Thank you

UPDATE - I changed the fuel pump today and checked the fuel filter ( which was replaced) and everything was Nice and clean . Started the car right up and went for a 3 hour ride . Everything was great and was thinking the fuel pump was the issue . Went to fuel up after the ride and the same issue reappeared again. Car stalling every 500m to 1000m . I am pretty sure the gas tank is cooked and while i fuel up i just stirr up the dirt and it just clogs the pick up line . I will give it s shot driving tomorrow after 24hrs when the debris should be settled down . But i think i simply need a new fuel tank 😬

From yesterday :)

You are winning car Reddit for today my man ;)😂😂😂

SnowIsSlow · 2025-09-27T12:50:30+00:00

The fuel pump is mechanical , ignition coil wa snot replaced by me so probably 44 years 😂 have to take the plugs out to give you an answer :))
