Hey guys. Well, the guy who owned my GP before me liked to hit things. There's some dings and dents here and there, yada yada. But they had to replace the whole drivers side door and fender combination. The door doesn't exactly work perfectly. I've never been able to open the car from the...

Hey guys. My GP has been in the middle of my garage for the last couple days since my parents are out on vacation. I've noticed that the garage has really smelled like a gas station. Today, I raised the car up in the front (pretty steep) and when I came back home today, I noticed a little...

Hey guys. Well, I've had a coolant issue since I bought my GP almost a year ago. Hasn't been an issue since it was only driven a few months after I bought it. However, I'm getting int back on the road this month and it needs to be resolved. What happens is this: When the car builds up heat...

Hey guys. For my GP, I installed a few year old Alpine CD player last summer. But after I get it inspected here soon, I'm doing speakers to match, since my rear factory ones are blown. I was looking into the Infinity Reference 3.5's up front (about 40 shipped), and the Kenwood 4x10's in the...

Hey guys. I need a catback for my GP for inspection. At first I was gonna go for a pre-boxed catback set-up, but I now decided on just doing the muffler seperate and having a shop do some tubing. Having this said, I need some V6 guys to shed some light on this. I've got the nappy *ss 3.8L...

Hey guys. Well, lol, I bought a keychain from eBay the other day. I've been looking for one for awhile. It was a factory keychain they gave to you when you bought a Pontiac back in the day. It seems like the mid-90's. I could be wrong though. I've seen a couple before. It is silver with the...

Hey guys. First off, the car is an '85 GP with the stock 3.8L V6 and the 3 speed transmission. Grantid, I've never driven very many 3 speed transmission cars for more than a few miles, mine seems to not be super efficient. It's only got about 86k on it for an '85. I's not that it's terrible or anything...

Hey guys. Just wanted to let y'all in on the info for my 2 stage process to get my sh*t back on the road. It's been hibernating for like 8 months, so she saw spring here lately, and she wants in on the fun. We'll see what we can do. I'm bringing it up on monday, and have all week (my parents...

Hey guys. Well, I got a CB for my GP a little while back. But I never really had a whole lotta luck with it. It's a compact Cobra one. The 19 Ultra III. It's got 40 channels and yada yada. I had no problem wiring it or anything, it gets full power. But the antenna I think is my problem. It's...

Hey guys. I was at a get together with my girlfriend tonight when somehow my GP got brought up. Turns out that her cousins dad (or something like that) is rebuilding a '78 LeMans up. 400 swap or something like that. Regardless, he said that he has the stock motor and everything from the...

Hey guys. In my GP, I've got an older Alpine I threw in. I bought it from a kid at my work for like 20 bucks last year. It works fine. I also like it because it's an Alpine. So it sounds real good too. But I was considering getting a newer one to put in it's place. I'm only considering it...

Hey guys. I've got the 3.8 V6 with stock 3 speed transmission. So whatever transmission number letter thingy that is. And the stock rear end. I was wondering what was involved into changing to a floor shifter. Not nescessarily a factory floor shifter assembly (because buckets are expensive), but a...

Hey guys. A while back, I bought a set of factory Rally gauges for my GP to replace the dummy lights. Since I parked it, I never installed them. What's involved / how do you install them or should I just have a shop do it? Obviously you've gotta attatch them from behind the dash, but how...

Hey guys. Well, today me and my dad were talking about some gameplans for my GP. We basically decided to build the car up to be daily driven for now, then do the engine/transmission/rear swap later on. Afterall, some 3.73's would make my gas mileage go from 8 mpg to 2 mpg. haha! Regardless, we're...

Hey guys. Well, to make a long story short, the precious owner of my GP was a drunk. He liked to hit things. Thus, my bumper. AND my rear quarter. AND my door. AND... You get the idea. Anyway, my focus right now is my rear bumper. It's poked in. Grantid, there is those bumperette things, I'm...

Hey guys. Well, I've been thinking lately. Obviously spring time is more-or-less here, and I've been itching to drive the GP around all over. The problem is, it's currently un-inspected AND un-insured. The reason it's un insured is because of the lack of inspection. And the reason it's...

We'll expand this out too. Have you ever named any of your other cars as well as your G Body?? My first car was my '93 Accord. That was Jenny.I just liked the name then. The next car was my '89 DeVille. That was Cruella. For Cruella DeVille from 101 Dalmations. haha! Plus, she was an old...

As the title says: Does your significant other like the G Body? Let's hear it!! For me, kinda. When I first got it, she was excited for me just because I was so excited. But then she just thought it was ugly. lol. Eventhough she hated green, she just didn't like it. But she's not a big fan of...

Hey guys. Well, when I got my GP, the exhaust had it. There were holes in the tubing, the muffler crumbled when I removed it, and when I added a clamp on tip, it broke the tubing off. haha! Needless to say, the exhaust was beat. So currently (the car isn't insured or inspected until I fix...

Hey guys. Well, to make a long story very short, the car has been up at my house for a few days. So I took advantage and put my Cragar SS caps on (to replace old american Racing ones that were on them), paint the calipers and drum casings black, paint the trunk bottom black, and a few other...
