Here is my 49k mile all original 85 GN. I wish I would have had the stock black and chrome grille in place when I took these pics. Oh well, Ill just have to go and re shoot them this summer.

Man the shot of the rear of that car is awesome! What sort of camera did you use? :eek:

To tell you the truth it was actually some little fairly cheap digital camera. I just got set up at thr right time of day and cloud cover to help the over all look. Also the front shot looks better in the actual pic that I have. I had to pull that off of the gnregistry site, and when he uploaded it, he didnt do it at a hi enough quality. I will try and find my original shot and post it up.
 
I couldnt find my good front shot of it, but here are a couple more pics of her. One is when she had 37,000 miles on her, I wish I would have slowed down my driving pace there instead of after she hit 40k miles.:( Then just a quick shot of the interior.

My old 85. "Life issues" forced me to get rid of her. :(

I have cleaned up the engine bay a bit since the picture (last week). The "vacuum canister" coffee can is gone as well as the electric vacuum pump. I am running a straight vacuum line over to the disty block for now. Will be switching back to hydroboost as soon as I snag one. Still working on a bit of the wiring (ECU controlled fuel pump and comp cut out). Just some little things need to be done. She has a bit of hesitation just off idle but the TPS reads fine--idle is a bit low (500rpm) so I am going to reset the min air bypass on the TB and hopefully that'll fix it. Really thinking about swapping in a Regal dash at this point (the crash pad is trashed and I am having a hell of a time finding a replacement Olds dash). Got some work to do but she should be a fun car when I get her done!

All I can say is...you are the man. Awesome job!:eek:
 
All of these except the car second from the right are 85 hotairs. The GN on the right end and to the left of the T-Type are my 2 85's and the T-Type is my dads 85.

here is what I have been doing. I moved the radiator towards the engine, removed the fan, moved the AC condenser forward, and put a big intercooler there. I moved the throttle body and fabbed a pipe for it to go into the manifold pressurized. I can't seem to find the pics of the IC to the Tbody pipe. I may have to take some more.
 
LOL, nope I'm not the "Eric Singer" that's the ex-drummer for KISS. I use to have a advertisement at my desk at work that showed the other Eric Singer with Pearl drums. Told people that was me in my wilder days ;)
 
LOL! Actually he is back with them now the last I heard. Peter Criss can't seem to decide whether he is in or out of the band. :confused:
