    Overheating at light

    This summer I noticed my 87 GN water temp would go up 20-30 degrees at a stop light with the AC on. Would continue to climb if allowed to. I haven't let it set long enough to see if it tops out. Once it hits 220-230 I make sure I get moving. Installed new single fan but still gets hot fast...

    Does anyone know where I can get replacement door trim? I bought the adhesive style but realized this rivets on which means mine doesn't work and I can't just take it off without leaving holes. I looked at what I thought was most of the sites but no luck.

    frame flex

    So, I have an 87 GN with T-tops and going down the road is like floating in rough seas. I am having the brace behind the seat installed but what else can I do?
