and that's why our insurance company made us put imobilaizers in our cars or we could not insure them so when I have to start up my 1980 442 I have to wave a fob on front of the imobilaizer light or it wont crank over
Really, MPI I assume as it is the only option. Did it just come in? I insured my 88 there 10 years ago with no immobilizer.

My wife worked with a woman that had a GNX that got legitimately stolen three times and recovered (just joy rides I guess) twenty five years ago. She recently started working with this woman again. I asked if the woman still had the GNX, but sadly the answer was no. I’m certain they let it go for way less than it was worth.

It may have started just before I moved and isn't a bad idea. Luckily no one has stolen my G body. We lived by a reserve in Manitoba, many GM vehicles got stolen on regular basis including my 81 Delta 88. Surprised Saskatchewan hasn't done the same.
