The rods that connect the inside door handles to the latches have a white nylon mesh stuff around them. I assume it was to keep them from rattling. The originals are disintegrating & falling off. I tried to get some off a car in the junkyard, but they started breaking apart as soon as I touched...

I passed the Ontario driveclean dyno test with a gutted cat & the recall emission chip.

Cylinder heads & rockers are the same also.

I can't really take any pictures right now because I'm snowed under here. Plus pictures will not help that much. I can tell you that cutting the holes in the door panel & attaching grilles onto the panel isn't a problem. My worry is where that lower front window channel bolts onto the door. Its...

What type of 4 door are you working on? I'm building a regal wagon & want to do this also, but the wagon door looks very different in that area & I don't think the 2 door setup can be used . The window channel on the 4 door is right where you need to cut out the hole. I haven't tried yet but...

Get one from Canada. Up to 87 we had carbs without electronics on most of our cars. Ron

82-83 Z28s with the 200C have it, but you don't find many that still have the original trans in them, as most got converted to TH 350s years ago. Ron Cavanagh, buickron@aol.com

Some of those cars came with 3.0 litre engines in them, which look the same but have a different ECM. It has to be an 86 & has to be a 3.8 SFI. Ron Cavanagh, buickron@aol.com

The tank would work except the filler neck pipe will be slightly different shape. A rad shop could change the necks over if needed. The sender difference is likely because TBI cars usually didn't use a pulsator, so the pipe needed to be longer, but we take out the pulsater anyway so that doesn't...

Not the same. Do you need one for a TR & wanted to adapt a riv one, or do you need one for a riv & wanted to use a regal one? If you need one for a riv, you might want to check one from an eldorado ( but not the pump ) The eldos are also fuel injected & use the same tank, so its sender is...

Basically everywhere in Bowling green is hopping during the NATs. Main location for motels & dining & hanging out is anywhere on scottsville road near interstate 65 area. Also sometime there might be something going on at the Corvette museum, but thats 3 or 4 miles away from the main area...

You would want to go to the NATs in Bowling green, if you plan to fly in to one event only , & want the biggest & longest show. Ron Cavanagh, buickron@aol.com

As was already stated, the 84 GN headliner is trim code 60, called light sand gray. It is the beige/ light gray sort of color. The trim shops never seem to go by the code numbers for older cars, they just match up the color to a sheet of samples & pick the closest one. I have an 84 Riviera with...

I have listed the TTA underhood Emissions label sticker, NOS GM part on Ebay. The item number is 2403992450, if anyone here is interested, Thanks, Ron

I also hope to go to the BCA 100th aniversary show in Flint, as well as norwalk & BG. Ron & Christine Cavanagh, buickron@aol.com
