    Cutlass fenderwell fillers?

    #88. Fenderwell extension. GM p/n 22507958 for RH (pass) and 22507959 for LH (driver). They complete the inner wheel well and act kind of like a front side splash shield as well to help keep water from splooshing up through the front of the wheel well when you hit a puddle. The front of the big...

    Home-made GM Part Numbered Belts

    More repro belt production. I'll have a good supply of these jokers shortly. The original belts had manufacturer markings on them, so I simply took the black StazOn ink pad and dabbed over the markings and poof, they "disappeared". Here's an original NOS GM belt as the "service replacement"...

    CUTLASS (3) NOS 2-door RH Front Amber Reflectors Cutlass/442 1987-88 GM p/n 5974040

    I have 3 for sale. More hen's teeth. Takes place of the front RH side marker lamps from 81-86 models. Since the 87-88 G47 had cornering lamps by the headlights, they no longer needed to be a lamp for the side markers, so they simply didn't form the hole for the bulb holder and they became...

    BUILD THREAD “The Juggernaut”

    I totally get that. But as detail-oriented as you are, Oldsmobile would have gone out of business waiting for you to QC check your work to your satisfaction. Could you imagine cloning yourself to build cars like GM? Building one car every three weeks wouldn't keep the lights on. 🤪

    T Roof vs hard top cars

    Bunch of weiners. :) But I get it. If you actually lived back then in the 70s/80s, and ordered a new car, you would WANT some sort of roof option since convertibles weren't an option. Cars with T-tops weren't old enough back then to show the results of 20+ years of water intrusion, and no...

    BUILD THREAD “The Juggernaut”

    Assembly line work: I can guarantee you that the assembly line workers did whatever it was concerning their jobs so often that they became blind to whatever went on. 99% chance they wouldn't remember specific cars as far as seam sealers. They had no investement in the product except to meet the...

    eBay 1981 Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight 98 REGENCY 68K BEAUTIFUL ORG COND SURVIVOR OLDS 4DR

    That thing is in phenomenal shape! Needs a bit of TLC, but it appears ready to roll anywhere. If I was in the market for a big girl, that would be a candidate for sure.

    FOR SALE NOS NEW General Motors Anti Sway Bar or SwayBars $275 Each or $500 BOTH

    If you buy the bars, make sure you get the right bushings. 472118 (need 2) is the GM p/n for the bushings you'll need to mount the front bar to the frame. This has the correct sized hole for the F41 bar. Although you can re-use the same stock brackets/bolts, I'll leave the GM p/n's here in...

    MONTE CARLO Door Latch - Need Help!

    Dafuq? It LOOKS like it's normal. But if it's not locking once it gets into the lock position, then either the linkage is bent/misadjusted not allowing it to latch, or the catch latch isn't snapping into place. Maybe a spring is broken that keeps the latch closed? It's been a good minute since...

    Buick International

    Probably the worst case of "I'll show you just how light my knowledge of G-bodies really happens to be" is when people start spouting off with RPO production numbers, such as "this many G-bodies with T-tops/sun(moon)roofs were made"...or "only 6 were made with (whatever option code)". With...

    How Can You Get ONE Key For ALL The Locks On Your 79, or 83-86 A/G-body Car?

    In fact, there's stuff in the Strattec books alluding to the either/or as I mentioned earlier when the 78 style ignition switch was used in the 79 models, but in the field they would be replaced with the screw types. This is from the 1987 Briggs and Stratton parts book. Note the words that...

    How Can You Get ONE Key For ALL The Locks On Your 79, or 83-86 A/G-body Car?

    Now that's a GM fleet kit. The 44L3 key stamping on the ignition lock corralates to a 1973, 81, or 91-00 "H" key. Thus, all the locks in that baggie are "H" key slots. Strange. Note too, it's the early ignition lock. This is the first time I've seen something other than the "B" key on one. It...

    How Can You Get ONE Key For ALL The Locks On Your 79, or 83-86 A/G-body Car?

    Are they GM or OEM? Or aftermarket? If aftermarket I don’t follow those much. That’s another source if you don’t mind using aftermarket stuff.

    How Can You Get ONE Key For ALL The Locks On Your 79, or 83-86 A/G-body Car?

    If you're like most people, one of the nicer thing you find about newer cars is that they usually only need one key and/or fob to do everything for your car or truck. Less keys, less junk swinging from the ignition, or sticking you in the leg while in your pocket. This trick only will work on...

    NEW 1979 HURST OLDS DUAL GATE 79 H/O G BODY with brackets $555

    Sure, you can modify anything to work. But it doesn't seem like it's a popular endeavor as maybe 2 people have ever done it that I know of. Just can't expect to bolt in and go with a 200-4R as you were originally alluding to. That's all I'm saying.
