Region 4 seems pretty dead, but I wanted to see who would answer this call. It would be nice to be able to get a group together. I'm about halfway between Hagerstown and Frederick, MD. Anyone close? _________________ Proud owner of his own 5th gen junkyard.

Hey Zach,
You going to bring it to Carlisle next June for the 50th?
Always did like those Chevrolet Beauty Rings.

Hot damn, I didn't bother checking back after a week. This is a nice surprise.
My baby is at a friend's garage right now while I finish up the last bits of the engine swap.
I bought her in '04 and the poor thing sat until I used the MVA's historic registration rule change to put her on the road in January '07. I went after the loose tilt column first, which led to me stripping out the pins on the sides trying to remove it.
I figured that the action of the column shift is what loosens the bolts, so I ended up putting in a column from a Monte that had floor shift, and plunked in a B&M shifter instead.
She should be a terror after the swap is complete, but she looks really rough on the outside.
What's the deal with you guys' Elkys? _________________ Proud owner of his own 5th gen junkyard.

Ole Winny wasn't above stealing phrases from other people and using them as his own ! I'm so glad to see that people are responding to the Region 4 Elky owners call. . . . I for one would like to get something happening in these areas and Pennsylvania folk are welcome too. . . .I live in Northern Baltimore County off Rt# 83 in a Town called Sparks. . . {North of Hunt Valley} Barry-Maryland _________________ 84 El Camino
