    What do you do for a living?

    Most .... 99%....are really nice kids. I also take five K-3 kids to a special school for the hearing impaired. They have cochlear implants and two of them started hearing for the first time last year. They're the best..... Honest and unassuming..

    Stock Chip

    I put Eric's 5.7 chip in my stock '87 GN. Drove around about 20 minutes to let it "learn" and noticed an immediate difference in driveability -- much smoother, idles better. A very good bang for the buck. A worthwhile investment in my opinion.

    Feel like a boat! Suspension wise

    My stock '87 was the same way when I bought her. As mentioned previously, start with a good gas shock. I used kyb's and are very happy with the ride. Does your car have the original body bushings? If so, have 'em changed. I used the stock type from kirban's. Helped out even more. You have any...

    87 GN in storage since new

    I completely agree with what ineedagn says. In my opinion, you have an inve$tment grade mu$eum piece collector$ car. Worth a LOT of jack. I would keep it as is . I know, I know , these cars were meant to be driven and $ isn't everything. But, to the right buyer/collector you could sell it and...

    Raised White Letter Tire branding in or out?

    A matter of personal taste. For me, I love the raised whites , letters out, on a stock 87 GN rim. I have BFG t/a's raised whites and I love the late 80's look. But, like I said, it's just a matter of what makes you smile.

    engine won't turn on...

    Either what marcus said, or a bad connection at the battery. You really can't tell how good the conection is by just looking at it. Sometimes they look fine. I would disconnect the battery and thoroughly clean the terminals / connections with some sandpaper or an emery board. That would remove...

    Some people say my video was disrespectful

    The guy running the lights probably had a hot date after work and he just wanted to get the h&ll outta there. Besides , I'm sure the *spectators* loved it , and after all, it IS a spectator event. They got what they paid for ! I thought it was badass.

    Fuel level float assembly / sender

    Hey folks. I believe I'm going to have to replace my fuel level float and sender. I just don't trust my fuel guage as it seems way too inaccurate. Any specific brands or vendors that you recommend or that I should stay away from? Johnnie

    Body mounts

    On what Mr Kirban said about the rear seat gnx brace.,.... *Do it! * I got the " Tin Man " brace and kit from him. Easy install and made a difference even with new body bushings installed. ( I didn't weld mine in. I used the supplied bolts / nuts and added seam sealer. ) NO rattles or squeaks...

    Best car photos.......(photogenic)

    *Very* nice cars indeed. That roadrunner is over the top. If I didn't want to keep my car stock, and since I have always loved the mopar stripe on the rear quarters and deck lid, I would be tempted to put that stripe on my car...... Maybe not white but maybe a very dark grey with the turbo 6...

    Still a cooling issue

    Like my revered and wise papa once told me, " Nothing is a mistake if you learn from it. Then it's just an 'educational experience ' ". And I have been "educated" many times.

    Something was watching me this morning

    Very well could have been a bobcat. They are extremely stealthy and hard to see. Their population is slowly on the increase. One was spotted by a ranger in a state park here in SW Ohio.

    Say a prayer and hug your Pooch tonight

    ^^^ x 3. My dearly departed "Angel" ( a German Shepard-Great Pyrenees- Timberwolf ) mix was the best friend I ever had. That dog seemed to understand me more than anyone else besides my father. I miss them both. And I , too, think there is a better plan for us all. My prayers are with you brother.

    Hello all. Having thoughts...

    With regard to the squeaks and rattles, Dialtone was right on. My '87 33k mile Gn squeaked and rattled like nobody's business when I first got it. Installed all new (stock rubber) body bushings, new KYB gas shocks, SC&C front triangular chassis brace , UMI rear shock towers brace and "TinMan's...
