    WTB:86/87 GN or TType $6000

    The insurance company finally gave me a settlement on my GN. I am NOT very impressed, but now it's time to get over it and try to get another car. I'm looking for an 86 or 87 GN or a darker colored T Type. I can pay a little more than $6000 for it. Body must be rust free and car should be...

    Dual a pillar gauge holder

    I got the Lo-Tech one... It dosn't fit real well and I wouldn't do it again. That was a few years ago though, maybe they've improved it.

    Different scanners= Different readings

    When I got my car it was supposed to be tuned in without any knock. I believe that it was tuned with Turbo link. (Jay, tell me what you used) About a week later I bought a scanmaster and saw unbelievable KR on it. It scared the hell out of me. After all sorts of work I have been unable to get...

    Name an 80's band

    Installing Hooker 2.5 System

    I have a few miles on mine now with out welding. I would sugest you get it welded, as I will when I get the chance, but it is not absolutley nessesary. just keep an eye on it to make sure that your clamps don't come loose. I ended up drilling the holes in the frame. It's not a big deal but if...

    Your Thoughts: 99 3.8 Mustang

    I think the 99 and up cars look great. I don't have any experience with the v6 though. I did see a post the other day on a SN95 site (don't remember which one) talking about a new v6 being able to beat a stock Fox body 5.0. Didn't pay much attention to it so I don't know all of the details...

    How much is a GOOD paint job worth?

    I think he is going to do most or all of the dissassembly. I met the guy through a friend of mine. The guy is a local mechanic who also works on the side. He had the car a few weeks back checking out some mechanical gremlins that I couldn't find, and looked it over pretty good so he has seen...

    How much is a GOOD paint job worth?

    I got a quote the other day to repaint my GN. $4000 to strip, fix all the dings, then prime and paint. Of course I need to see some of the guy's work first but if it's as good as I am hearing does this sound too high? I want the job done right, not some maaco $100 special but I'm clueless about...

    a car no one knows about is great, but...

    I learned a long time ago to take parts stores advice with a grain or more of salt. Many times you can't blame them, and they know that the computer or books can be off. Ya just have to be a bit creative. Sometimes they don't realise that the computer can be wrong though. Try to get a fog...

    Wife wants a minivan! HELP!

    I drove my daughter home from the hospital in a '92 Camaro. My driveway had a 3rd gen F Body in it until both of my kids were over 5 yrs old. That's the time we started phasing in the G bodies. My ex-mother in law has had minivan's forever. Believe me, the Camaro was MUCH easier to put them...
