Anybody know where the car is now?

I worry more about distracted drivers missing stop lights/signs and or getting rear ended in traffic than the car getting stolen. I'm definitely a defensive driver when in the Buick and always have an escape plan so the distracted driver will hit the next guy in line and not me. Maybe time to...

I get that all the time too, answer is always, no. :D

I picked up a new brass very original looking style heater core for my 87 turbo t at my local NAPA store, less than $40 out the door back in 2010. Don't know if the 86 would be different, I would assume they are all the same for 86-87. Fit in the car and the tubes lined up just like the...

XXX10 Have him check into flight programs at Purdue University, Embry Riddle, or University of North Dakota for some of the best flight programs in the country. If he's still serious about the military, then ROTC at the collegiate flight school of choice is the best bet. Of course if you have...

I have used carbon monoxide from the exhaust of the lawn tractor. Just used a shop vac hose from the exhaust down into the holes. Just let it run for a while at idle to give the little critters a permanent nap. Recently I actually saw a kit at wally world or lowes / HD / menards to do this...

Hope the cars show up somewhere and the thieves are caught. Sad to say, we are all gonna have to be more vigilant on prevention. You just can't have nice things anymore without someone thinking they can just take it from you. Here's a link to the crime stoppers. Crime Stoppers: Buick...

Yep, came with all REMFLEX gaskets.......and after re-reading the GSXtra back issues the headers are made from a "special alloy steel", so yes, better than just mild steel. The flanges are 3/8 inch thick and welded inside and outside. All the hardware to install is included also. Overall I'm...

I received mine the day I left for the Nat's and just had a chance to unpack and take a look yesterday. Was a bit worried as they were packed in a regular header sized box and loose inside, but thankfully they were adequately wrapped with lots of bubble wrap so no damage during shipping...

If you are planning on statue of liberty or empire state building plan ahead and order tickets online ahead of time or plan on standing in lines for a long time and possibly not getting to see them at all. The crown tour in the statue of liberty is very limited and is usually sold out way in...

Looking at wheels made by Vision Wheels. Vision Wheel Liking the American Muscle Series, especially the Legend 5 141 either in chrome or gunmetal. Looking at putting these on my code 31 dark blue turbo T with W02 blacked out trim. Anybody have any experience with this manufacturer or...

What about this one? TURBO REGAL / GRAND NATIONAL REGISTRY :: PURPOSE OF THE GNREGISTRY. The listing of registry members hasn't been available for quite a while. I was member #1000. The last time I saw the registry it was up to 1500-1600 members.

Here's a great site to do some research on what you might want to buy. 120 Volt Mig Welder recommendations - The Garage Journal Board Personally I have never owned my own since I have access to oxygen-acetyline and TIG heli-arc welding at work. I would suggest taking a welding course...

I know the seats in my 95 Riviera are really comfy still after 16 years and 180k miles. Don't know how they would fit in a G-body car though. They were available in black, tan, red and blue and maybe others that I'm not aware of. Here's an example. 1995 Buick Riviera Supercharged Coupe in...
