at the family easter get together, my cousin was telling me about this "80s cutlass" his buddy had for sale. he called his buddy and it turned out to be and 85 grand prix. dude blew up the 305 that was in it, paid some guy to swap in a 350 that he had bought for it and the dude never finished the job. so its been sitting for a couple years. my cousin texted me these pics tonight and he said it looks to be in pretty good shape other than someone robbed the bucket seats out of it. im planning to go check it out one night this week and maybe bring it home. looks to have some late 70s WS6 wheels on it too. bonus!

Cool, don't look to be bad at all. I rarely ever see a gbody grand prix around here, only one I've seen personally that's not in a junkyard or something is a tanish colored one in French lick, if u know where that is? What are your plans for it?
 
first plans will be to finish the 350 install and hope it runs good. next ill be hitting some junkyards to find some front seats for it, im sure ill end up using something out of a fwd grand am or something like that since theyre so plentiful. theres still a few g-body GPs on the road around here but you rarely ever see any g-bodies at all in the junkyards, theyre all full of fwd crap anymore. now i just need to sell my 79 GP to make room for this one. 😀
