    No Headlights, No Tail Lights, and No Horn

    I have an 86 Grand Prix as my daily driver. I went to go to work Sunday night, started up the car and hit the lights, but as the title suggests, no lights came on. I have signals, hazzards, reverse lights, brake lights, and dome light. I have checked the light grounds, replaced the healight...

    Electric Choke

    Can someone tell me what fuse is for the electric choke on the '86 Grand Prix? The only one I would think have been the issue would be the ignition fuse, but I checked it and it was fine. I replaced it anyway for good measure, but the choke light is still on. Keep in mind, the computer hasn't...

    It happened again!

    Well, it happened again. Some idiot hit my 76 Monte Carlo. I just got off of work and pulled in behind this guy waiting for gas and turned off my car. I was dinking around with my coat then when I looked up I see reverse lights. I was like "you better be paying attention." Of course he wasn't...

    FINALLY!!!!

    So, a month and a half later, I FINALLY received my check from the insurance company for the damage to my Monte Carlo. I got $1094.25 since that is what the body shop quoted. As soon as the check clears, I'm going to get the replacement parts. Not gonna have a body shop do it so I'll have a...

    Was rear ended in the Monte today...

    So I was driving home from work in the Monte today and was stopped behind a school bus, which was stopped and waiting to make a right turn. I was probably stopped for no more than 5 seconds when all of a sudden BAM, jackass in a Toyota Carolla slammed into me. I admit I was not as upset as I...

    Factory Cruise Control problem...

    Most of you already know from my post a few days ago that I bought an 86 Grand Prix LE. The factory cruise control does not work. Before I go get a working one from somewhere, is there anything I should look for on mine to possibly fix it?

    Might be getting back in the saddle... (UPDATED... PHOTO'S)

    Its been a while since I posted last. For those of you who don't remember, I briefly owned an 86 Grand Prix, which was totaled about a month and a half after I got it. I had plans for that car, but fate had other plans for it. While I own my pride and joy all ready, my 76 Monte Carlo, I do miss...

    I took 2nd Place in 70's Class

    Just got back from the Pizza Baron Cruise-In today with my car club (PDXCGP). Our day started early. We headed for the show at about 7:45am, the show started at 10 and ran until 2. Weather wasn't the best, but a lot cooler than the 104 degrees that happened last year. It rained on and off all...

    New Personal Best

    I decided at about 7:30 last night to go out to P.I.R. and race. I've been thinking about it all day long. Earlier I decided not to go and I filled my tank ($68 in case you are wondering). After watching some of last years races I decided "what the hell." So I unloaded my car at the house...

    It is ALIVE!

    For those of you who don't know, I've spent the last 3 weeks wrenching on my 76 Monte. Several main reasons were because of a badly cracked flex plate and a bad motor mount. I pulled the engine out and while it was out I repainted the block and installed my new cam and lifter kit. Its a Comp...

    Wondering how the lines were suppose to be routed. Like a lunk head, I didn't mark how the lines were suppose to be routed and now I'm stuck guessing. I know the upper line on the radiator is the return and the lower is the trans to radiator. Just need to know where to hook up the lines to the...

    Pics of the cracked flexplate

    Friday I began my repair/mod task to the Monte. I picked up an engine lift (cherry picker) for $100 and after I got home I started wrenching on the Monte. Got most of the stuff done to get the engine out, but alas rain started to fall and I had to put my efforts on hold until it decided to clear...
