I was cleaning my nasty shop this morning and stumbled on your front-mount intercooler. <gasp!> Are you still interested in that thing? Last I recall, I was trying to locate a pallet to mount the crate on - so I could get a quote for shipping. I am *SO* sorry that I dropped the ball on this...

I just did some research... The IC weighs 25 lb Each of the four pipes weighs 5 lbs The few clamps and such weigh 2 lbs Giving some room for packing materials, I need a box that is 32x24x10. The box I found is 36x24x12 for $10 If I put double or triple cardboard for each outside wall and lots of...

I'm going to work on packing that IC today - so I can get a weight estimate -- so I can compute shipping costs. I was buried at work this week, and I didn't get a chance to even look for a box... sorry

awww... shucks.... thanks Everyone... I measured the intercooler: in/out ports - are 3-inch couplers are 3-to-2.5 rubber adapters pipes are 2.5-inch - to connect to OE turbo and up-pipe Has anyone ever shipped an IC in a cardboard box? did it get beat-up? I'm thinking of building a crate...

Seems to be quite a bit of interest in that front-mount IC. Let me find a box, pack it up carefully, and determine how much it's going to weigh. I have quite a bit of stuff to do this week, so it may be a day or two before I find a box big enough... please be patient... or come to Dallas...

How do I [properly] attach photos to a post?

All these pars are off a 70k mile, rust-free, 1987 GN that was wrecked. The car was running great at the time of the collision. The drivetrain was pretty-much stock. I had an adjustable FP regulator, Walbro fuel pump, TH downpipe, chip, and open-element air filter. I parted-out my GN's...

That is *exactly* what I need. Thanks a bunch!

I'm trying to clean-up my shop a bit. I have parts from an 87 GN and parts from a 1980 Turbo Trans Am. I have a guy interested in a TR driveshaft, but I can't remember which one is for the TR. Both are 2.75-inches in diameter. One is ~45.5 inches long and the other is about 48.5 inches long...

Did you ever get the A/C issue resolved with your Turbo TA? I have a 1980 Special Edition that I'm putting my GN drivetrain into. I found a guy in Princeton, TX that said he used the OE compressor and bracket, but his car had tubular upper control arms. That is what I'm going to try...

Not my car, but sure would be nice to own... http://dallas.craigslist.org/ftw/cto/3262214888.html It sold last week at Mecum http://www.mecum.com/auctions/lot_detail.cfm?LOT_ID=DA0912-138339 Is it worth $10K

My GN was destroyed a while back. I had Epsilon 3-piece 16x8 black mesh [GNX-like] weels on the car at the time. The two rear wheels were really beat-up. I'm pretty sure they are not repairable. I'm in the process of dropping the GN drivetrain into a 1980 Turbo Trans Am. I think those mesh...

Somewhere in this mess? That makes sense... Thanks

A few weeks ago, my poor GN suffered a small rear-end collision. http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/turbo-lounge/344601-rip-grand-national-what-next-2.html The fire department disconnected the fuel pump so everyone would feel better. In the following photo, you can see the wires that run to...

Finally got trunk open. The trunk floor looks like it gave it's life for the rest of the car: I think these are the wires to the fuel pump. Where are the wires this should connect to? I can follow these wires to the top of the tank, so I'm looking for the wires that run to the car's...

I just got a call from State Farm. They offered me $16045.10 for the car. That includes tax/title/license fees. Plus, I get to keep my old GN... with clear title. They said if I want more, I need to pay for an appraisal and then they might give me more, depending on the appraisal How much...

Heard back from State Farm State Farm just called... they offered me $11448.23 for the damage. Does that sound about right for: * 1987 GN hard top * 70,000 miles * power windows/locks/seats, G80, GNX-like wheels, etc * no rust at all! * interior was 9.5 or better * exterior...

Tuesday, the Adjuster came by to look at my mangled mess. The guy knew what a GN was/is, and was quite sad when he saw mine. He couldn't give me a number then; he had to take the data/photos back to the office to let an expert do some research. I got a call Wednesday from the guy that...
