    Is Dave Schmucker back?

    I was absolutely flabbergasted when I checked my Facebook the other day and had a friend request from Dave Schmucker on there. I'm a fairly easy going guy, but my blood pressure went through the roof faster than a cat with his tail on fire. No note, just a friend request. This is the piece...

    David Spade still has a GN

    I met David Spade today (among quite a few others) and the only thing I asked him is if he still had the GN. He smiled and said "Yep, still got it." I told him that the TR community thought it was cool when we saw the video and he immediately knew it was the TMZ video. Other than that, it...

    Who has A/C lines for our cars?

    Local store lists the NA ones for the turbo car and the dealer (including the GM Parts sites) don't have 'em anymore. I don't want to buy from Kirban, who has A/C hose assemblies? Aftermarket ok. :confused:

    Anyone in Norfolk Virginia?

    I have found an old Dodge that I want to buy and need someone to take a quick look at for me. Nothing big, just a quick look to verify condition. I'm willing to compensate you for your time. It's at a junkyard off Florida Avenue (wherever that is). Email me at WakkoSS@aol.com Ian

    What would you replace your GN with?

    If you decided to sell your TR, what would you buy as a replacement? I ask this because I'm at the point where I think all of us have been at one time or another. If I keep the car, I'm changing my license plate to "CURSED". Two accidents and a popped headgasket (ok, that was my fault) have...

    Who here is from Texas?

    My friend lives in Austin and another friend is moving to Plano. I've been looking to get out of South Florida and Texas is an option as Travis County Sheriff's Office and many other departments pay well and the cost of living is still reasonable. My little 2/2 house is $230k right now and is...

    Anyone seen the new Wheel Vintiques "Billet Duke" wheel? 17" version of Vector

    Wheels look great! Obviously designed for the Mopar crowd, I'm thinking these would look sweet on a GN or T. Anyone seen these in person yet? I emailed about a price, haven't heard back yet. http://207.201.148.65/pdfs/billet_002.pdf

    Well, the GN is finally at the body shop gettin fixed (pics)

    Still need an upper control arm for the front D/S, P/S reservoir and inner fenderwell, but the frame damage is just a dimple and the rad support is barely bent (about an inch inward). Overall the damage isn't bad at all.

    Repro or factory header panel?

    Time has come to repair the GN. The header panel is destroyed, so I need to get either a factory one and fill in the hole or get a reproduction. Any cons to the repro? Naturally I'm going to try to find factory first. And I'm STILL looking for fiberglass (not plastic) GNX louvers.

    Who has the BEST GNX louvers?

    Time to get the GN towed to the body shop and repaired but I need to replace the broken GNX louvers. I've had the Ebay ones (warped) and the Kirban's ones (cheap). Someone said there were $200 fiberglass ones once...I'll pay it if I Can find em. Any ideas? :confused:

    Wrecked!

    We had a death in the family last week and Saturday was the funeral. As I'm pulling into an intersection after the funeral, some chump runs a red light and plows into my driver side fender. My 83 year old grandfather was in the car with me but had only minor injuries. I was unhurt. The...

    170 psi in 1/3/5? 0 psi in #2.

    #2 cylinder is 0 psi due to a hole in the piston. Doh. #4 and #6 were somewhere in the 136/140 range. 1/3/5 though were all exactly 170. The car has 47k miles on it, valve springs were replaced with LT1 springs years ago (per the previous owner). Could the cam be wiping?:confused:
