Default Was Running The Motor So I Filmed It.

I know, more of the usual, put some stable in the gas and ran the motor some, only reason I bothered filming is because it got a little warmed up after a bit and started to idle down more so than in most of my vids,

I don't know how old you are, but do you have current tags on that car or are you old enough. Most of the videos I have watched of your ca is either in the garage of your parents house, or in front of mom and pops house. Not meaning no disrespect at all, but for crying out loud, rip that thing a loose already and show some time tickets or dyno numbers. Thanks.

Would be kind of hard to drive it right now, seeing as to how it's the middle of the winter.

Only have that one night time video because it was a fresh motor last summer so we took it easy on the car, and now I have to take it in to work this spring and reseal the rear end since the guy who put out gears in ****ed it up and now it leaks all the fluid out in no time......

So once I fix the rear end leak I will probably get some good videos of it, wish I had the camera last time I drove it this fall when I did a burnout through 4th gear.

Cannot wait until to spring so I can fix that leak and drive it !

don't feel bad....at least your motor is running , my tranny is out and on the bench at work in pieces and so is the motor, awaiting a cam swap, intake and carb change and a few other things I have planned for it, these cars are not much fun when it's cold out, heck on my 92 when I took it out the other day it was below 30 degrees and the dang drag radials were like bricks, just the lightest acceleration and the tires would spin and massive wheel hop, where as when it's warm , none of that is an issue

Sounds like you'll be getting what we are later this week. I have a feeling I'll be starting my truck up early tomorrow morning and letting her warm up.
