Re: 1987 Buick Grand National hardtop
It sucks that the car is a fake!! Looking at the pics, I keep thinking that
it's amazing that someone would go through all of the effort to make a

Re: Chevy vs Ford truck ad
We will see. A LOT of cars made in the last 15-20 years have aluminum hoods, Audi made many many A8s which are a completely aluminum body (ALL of them, going back to 1998-ish), GM has been doing ...

Re: New Brake Lines
I'm still of the mindset of cutting the old line out and duplicating it on the floor.
The copper coat line is no good for this because it bends TOO easily. Pick it up and it sags under its own weight ...

Re: Wanted: Shop space rent/share in Cleveland area
Nothing fancy at all, really... just a 2 wide by 2 deep garage with some 110v outlets. No lifts, no running water.
At current, I have two VW Quantums that need to turn into one 400hp Quantum, an RX-7 ...

Re: want to buy buick gm parts
Your best bet for the bumper fills is fiberglass aftermarket. The plastic ones are extremely fragile after thirty years, and any used ones are either going to be sagged or will fail shortly anyway ...

Re: 1987 Buick Grand National hardtop
20k GN's produced in 1987
1.5k T Types in 1987
I think I worked on about a third of those GNs. And for some reason no 1986s or hot air cars!
I like the turbines and rally wheels that came stock ...

Re: Cheap Bastage is at it again - welding brake lines!
I made a PCV adaptor for a Subaru 2.5 turbo engine out of a piece of tubing I cut from the fender/cowl brace from a '67 Fairlane... it was a disturbingly perfect fit into the bizarre internal-diameter ...

Hit a 13.63 at 103 last night at Norwalk, err Summit. With a huge bog off the line (2 second 60'!), in the '84 RX-7 on crispy dried out old all-seasons.

Re: What cars interest you?
They're all pretty sweet. Where I work we see a lot of various classics and street rods. So it's like I don't even need to own one, because I get to wrench on other peoples' cars.
