So I missed the update about the heart attack. Hope you're doing better these days. And I bring a question; just how many vehicles do you own these days? I'm counting three or four 'vette's? And how many S10's?

Anyone know what 15" 4x100 OE steel wheels will allow a 205 to clear on the front of one of these?

4 Vettes. 1.5 S-10s. 2 G20 Vans(don't ask).
Plus the Miata. I'll never be without at least one of those.

I don't, but I'll be trying some 15" Mini alloys with 195/50R15s later this week.
If you haven't joined yet try the Chevette Owners group on Facebook. It's a closed group but easy to get in. Josh Moore is the guru. He will know what fits.
Glad to hear you're doing better and I'm digging those Vettes!

I had already pm'd him he didn't have the answer. I was guessing miata or maybe 325 would fit, let me know what you find out. I didn't have a stack of washers handy or I would have checked out how much spacer I would need for these (saturn?) wheels to clear.
I have no idea what you're going to build out of 4 Chevettes and 2 S-10s, but I can't wait to see the end result.
Sorry to hear about the heart issues. Maybe that's what happens when you end up with 6-7 project cars before you finish the first one

Leave it to Steve to come in here dropping truth.
Bitch.
And just to keep things moving I took a trip through the junk yard after dropping off my scrap this morning. $22 for a towering pickup full.
Wasn't a total loss as I picked up a late Aerostar light to fool around with.
Needs a bezel, but I don't hate it. 
Progress! Sadly the wheels went on to push it outside.
Yes that is a spare S-10 frame leaning next to the fence next to it.
It moved out so I could turn this:
Into this:
And then push it out into the snow. 
Needed the space to fix a friend's Honda brakes. Out of town this weekend, so stalled once again.
The $300 parts S-10 is gone too. Got a whopping $20. So much for recoup.
Still stripping. Still finding more hidden rust. YAY!
So this, um, "build" has come to an end. Rust and title problems sealed it's fate.
Believe it or not this floor is good enough to patch both the purple 87 and the orange 77!
The cowl forward is rust free. Go figure. Since shock tower and dogleg rust is common, I'm saving it for later.
Just picked up this 83 at the Goodwill auto auction for $350, but I'll give it it's own thread....once I know it'll actually be a build.
