    1987 Grand National hard top, clean, 57k mile car

    It was brought to my attention that it looks "wet" on the undercarriage pics. This is not the case at all. It's the flash from my camera phone. It was hard to take photos laying down on the ground in low light conditions. Also, I am curious if people generally think this car is not worth the...

    Toby, sorry for getting back to you so late. The alert didn't trigger an email notification and I haven't logged into this site because I thought there wasn't any interest. My number is 310-941-7235. I would call you, but it's late over there with the three hour time difference.

    The car is in excellent hands with Lou. He has done way more than his fair share of work on that car for what I'm paying. The only thing I'm dismal about is that fact I don't have that kind of cash on hand to spend. I'm having to sell possessions I didn't plan on getting rid of. We got...

    TType85, I really like that low key look of your car. You must surprise a whole lotta people with that one.

    When Lou dug into it, he was surprised and confirmed my suspicions that the car was a complete mess. He found that the coil pack was only firing on three coils. The MAF on that motor is for a naturally aspirated buick 3.8 motor. The rear main seal was leaking for the fourth time and the journal...

    It's already over $2k+. It's cash I really don't have and I'm not just saying that. I'm confident it's in good hands, but not confident in my finances.

    In a cynical crazy way, it would be kinda funny to see. That's why that movie Falling Down was popular. It has some smaller minor oil leaks. It did leak a lot of oil because the previous owner had a 70lb spring in the pump. So I took it out and swapped it for the stock spring. I told the...

    Joel, you're very observant and correct. I'm still a feeling burnt from the guy who sold me the car. I should've flew out to Kentucky to see the car with my own eyes and made a trip out of it and visited my old buddy and his family. I know I can wrench on that thing anytime, but haven't...

    Everyone else who has made a positive contribution, I have responded to accordingly. I'm listening to those people. You and olddog have not made any positive contribution to this thread. And yet you speak for everyone on this board?

    I completely understand that $2k is not that much to have Lou look at it. But this isn't my only project and I didn't buy this car to be a fulltime project. I wish I could drop $2k on it right now and have the headache go away. But I ain't as rich as the rest of you on this board. Is that...
