I was at the track tonight, running good. All of a sudden, I launched, and it would not shift to 2nd gear. I could not figure out what it was at first, I thought it was the engine. I figured it out on the way home. It will at part throttle, just not at wot. It does fine in every other gear...

bump

Bump - $150 shipped, $155 Paypal? Nice converter for a stock or slightly higher turbo.

I have a Street Brawler torque converter for sale. It is the red stripe version, and is supposed to be about a 2400 stall. It has the numbers 032599 (i think) painted on it in white, and (of course) the red stripe around it. It is a lockup converter, and worked great, and is 12". I have...

Free drag radials I will take them. Pmail sent.

I am looking for two Grand National Wheels. They don't have to be in great shape, I am going to use them for Drag Radials. NE Indiana would be great so that I could pick them up. Let me know what you have at mwalt1@comcast.net Thanks!

I am looking for a good mechanic that is reasonable in the Ft. Wayne, IN area. I am looking at maybe having a few things done this winter (head gaskets, tune) and was looking for somebody with experience with these cars. Thanks for any recommendations.

Sold to 87LimitiedT. It was a face to face deal, and a pleasure to meet somebody from the boards.

Yes, wheel center cap for 1987 GN.

I have a Kirban driveshaft safety loop for sale or trade. I need one nice GN center cap if you have one, if not, $35 shipped to the lower 48. This is new. I could not return it because I don't have the original invoice.

New to the turbo Buick. I am going to change valve cover gaskets. I was just wondering if the one on the passenger side comes off easy, or do I have to jack the engine up to get clearance around the AC unit? They are the tall valve covers, and it looks a little tight around there. I did a...

I really do try to stay out of this stuff, but you are treating some of these people on this board like a bunch of criminals. They all didn't scam you, so maybe you should try holding the sharp tongue a little bit and showing a little bit of gratitude and humility. The only thing that I have...

I have seen several pics of this car and spoke with Brian. If I had been a little closer, I probably would have bought this one. The only reason I didn't is because I found one closer that I didn't have to ship or drive home. This looks like a really nice car for the money.

I try to stay out of this stuff. I did give him my number to discuss the possible purchase of this car. He did not call me back. He did say that he was tired of this internet stuff and that it was "pi@#ing" him off. He may be legit, I don't know. I have the cash, and would buy his car...

It should be worth $7500-$8000, but he is asking $9900. I voted for the $8000-$9000. Also, if the miles don't mean anything, then why keep track of them? The miles do mean something. If they didn't, nobody would advertise "Low" miles. Nobody seems to advertise "High" miles, they put it...
