Hi Wakes1 Welcome to the forum! Got any pics?

When I used to spray tops I used vinyl top paint sold ready to spray at autobody supply stores. I washed the vinyl with lacquer thinner and a lint - free cloth. Mask off the roof first then wash it with the thinner. Try to remove any lint caused from the rag and solvent softened vinyl. Spray...

You didn't say what grade oil you have in there or what the outside temp is. Just to give you an example, I changed the oil in my 71 ford torino gt conv with a 351C 4v and used castrol gtx 10-30. Had some laying around from the case I bought. On startup I had almost 60psi. Drove it around a...

59chev What about a bolt-on subframe from a nova/ventura/skylark/apollo/omega/camaro/firebird? These used control arms and coil springs much like the g-bodies but it's all mounted to the bolt-on subframe.

The 76-79 sevilles were based on the nova platform and used the bolt on subframe. The later seviles, 80 & up, were based on the 79 eldo. They were both also FWD so I'm not sure what parts they would share? The caddies have a torsion bar front end ( no springs).

Here's some part #'s for the instrument cluster cover... 81-83 1001 8759 84 1003 0788 85-87 1003 5090 Sorry don't have any info on the gauges but I thought I read a post somewhere that 84 had silver faced gauges? I can say my 87 has black gauges with red-orange...

Stumbled onto this Canadian GM site and thought it may help some members...... http://www.gmcanada.com/english/mainten ... _vint.html

Wow! That sucks! The insurance co. must love him! Hopefully no one was hurt and it was a minor accident.

Thanks for the welcome, guys! I just added a few pics to the photo album. I really should take a few more.

Not really sure but I would say the pump is OK since it's pumping so it must be what controls it. I was hoping someone who had experienced the same problem would have answered but I didn't want you to feel ignored. BTW, welcome to the forum! I would start by checking the wiring. Make sure...

Saw a pic in the local paper today of a bombed out area of lebanon. Sitting right there amid the devastation...an olds cutlass supreme! Looked liked it survived the blast!

Glad to help! I'm waitng on some color samples myself. Looking to replace the carpet and mats. Also looking to do the headliner.

You mean 2 dr cutlass supreme onto a wagon? The profiles of the rear of the fender on a 2 dr are different from the profiles of the front of a 4dr or wagon. The 4dr cutlass and wagons will interchange with the 4 dr buicks and wagons. If you could somehow make the front door skins a...

Had a friend years ago who used to put his caddy wires and riviera wires in his mom's dishwasher! Came out beautiful! Well until his mom came home early one day and found the wheel covers in the dish washer! LOL!

Has anybody used one of the ABS aftermarket replacement boards? What about the clips for the surround mouldings? I know these will break when I try to pull the mouldings.

I remember seeing them advertised in the local nyc papers. I'm pretty sure they were 87's. I think they had grey LE interiors. The reason I think they were 87's is because after the 2+2 was dropped after the 86 model year, some dealers were looking to have something to lure the monte ss buyers...

Hi guys Just joined. I've been hanging around another pontiac forum for awhile but have been looking for a g-body oriented site. Looks like I found it! My g-body is an 87 pontiac gp coupe. It has 305-4v, auto trans w/overdrive. Being the last year for the rwd it has some strange options...
