It's my understanding that it's an aftermarket thing....

I like a little tint to help keep the sun out. However, I had something that was close to limmo black, and I didn't like it 'cause I couldn't see out at night. But you have it in writing (text form) where he agreed to fix it. If it goes to small claims court, he'd most likely loose. On the...

The Nimitz got new upper and lower radiator hoses. Pulled the back breaks apart and cleaned things up in there (break dust/glazing) and upon inspecting the fronts, it needs rotors, and pads... but that will nee to keep until payday :oops:

The gas tank on our Grand Prix, (the USS Nimitz), is FUBAR. We are of the understanding that there is a polly/plastic tank for G-body GM cars? I've done a few searches, and all I can find are steel replacements. Where do I find one and how much $$$ are we looking at to recommission the Nimitz...

So my greatest nemesis will be rust! :wink:

Well,,, it's just some cars of that era, the floor of the trunk and the top of the tank were one in the same. Here's another twist, do I need to get into the trunk to undo the strap bolts. Or to put it another way, do the bolts go though to the trunk? Getting in the trunk of this thing will be...

Half the gas tank is rotted out on the old Grand Prix.... Fill it past half way, where the 2 halves are welded together, it leaks like crazy :( So what am I getting into changing it out? I hear the floor of the trunk has to come out?

Oh,,,, Wait,,, So what you're saying is.... just patch the bad spot on the frame, put a body lift on it, and then swap to bigger tires? Just make it LOOK like a 4x4? Interesting.... Ya know, it already has the mudders that came off my old Ranger on it. Believe it or not, both vehicles...

I love the El Camino! My best friend still has the same one he's had since high school... Mostly only drive4s it to shows these days. He has a fleet of show cars, and when we take them in mass, I always step up to take the 'cammie! Oh yea, and the thing about 4wd'n the GP, is as a kind of a...

No, It wasn't a joke. I was just thinking if we could get a truck frame with suspension and transference ect... from a salvage yard (car has good motor and trans) we could combine my SO's 2 loves at the same time. :oops:

Looks like out '84's frame. We would like to replace ours with a Blazer's fame though.... (4WD)

I guess the original intent of my post was "How well will this work, if at all"?????? Is there something better than a Chevy Blazer to rob the parts from?

Yea, if we're going to the trouble of swapping frames, She gonna want to go 4wd... (and lifted to the sky) Take it mudd'n in the fall and spring, and to get around in the winter snow. Besides all that, like I said before, We-uns is hill-folk. I know, I know, what not just get a truck...

As cars get older, the need for parts gets greater.... As the need increases, supply decreases. It's the law of supply and demand. O-bum-a and his cash for clunkers really put a damper on the used parts market to! :evil: :cry: My SO has this problem with the Grand Prix, and I have it...

What did we do with our G-Body today? Paid the insurance for the next year.... :blam:

Very good to know! The car is in ok shape ohter than the rottne frame rails, and has low miles

The Hurst Olds is just plain cool no matter how you slice it! And that's ******* from someone who normally I bead Ford blue!

Yea, my SO has an 84 Pontiac Grand Prix. The whole back end of the frame has rotted out from the axle-hump back. She really loves her car and wants to whatever to save it. So, seeing as how we live in hillbilly country, she would like to replace the frame with that of a 4WD, full size blazer or...
