You got a parts car? For the LeSabre?

For those that aren't REALLY into Buicks...
Any G body Regal 81 and up a mid-60s Skylark convertible 61-62 LeSabre/Invicta hardtop/vert I could be coaxed into the new LaCrosse, depending if it's in my means

Children of a lesser Chevy
+1 I'll add the IROC-Z and, thanks to Camino, the 73-77 Chevy A-bodies.

The essential Pontiacs
Grand Prix GTO Firebird Fiero Solstice G8 I also think that a Pontiac balls-to-the-wall supercar was and is a must for the brand (assuming things turn around).

ION was a failure so something had to be done. The current Astra was the only compact available at the time (the Cobalt clone already went to Pontiac). In retrospect, I'd have given the Cobalt clone to Saturn (where its interior design is quite similar to the Aura) and let Pontiac or Buick wait for the next-gen Astra.- Anyone need a 76 El Camino for $500
If the dash is good, that alone makes it worth it. The body panels look to be in great shape, a rarity for a 33 year old car sitting in someone's yard on the East Coast. Do it. Doitdoitdoitdoitdoit.- More Power, Less Fuel,Less Emissions

The Chinese should be careful. Japan and Taiwan (two countries with a long-standing hatred of China) should immediately align with the US should a conflict ensue. Come to think of it, ,most or all of the Far East would probably jump on our side. China's made a lot of enemies in its history.- Are Violent Video Games Adequately Preparing Children For The Apocalypse?

I know you were thinking of dropping in some 300m parts into various places, so you might want to look into getting a wrecked 300m and pull out what you want. FWIW, my father had a 93 Eagle Vision with the 3.5, and it ran great until he inadvertently went into a huge puddle at highway speeds (at night in a rainstorm) and water rushed into the intake and snapped the #3 rod. Good luck with whatever route you go, and I hope it gets back on the road in no time.- Pie

It's not a loan. It's a "financial improvement initiative" j/k. In all seriousness, this can't be good. We're all in for a bumpy ride.- The Cadillac DTS
Personally, I prefer the 00-05 Deville's styling over the 06+ DTS, which IMO doesn't wear the Art & Science front and rear fascias very well. I think WMJ's analysis is spot on, though I think you'll have less of a hassle with a 2000-up car as opposed to your receptionist's mid-90s car. Just throwing this out there, but how about a Lucerne (your favorite engine) or an Aurora for a second car?- Italian Retards Out Cruising
I've already been to Texas. The population was very cordial to me, and I'm pretty sure I'm welcome back anytime.- Italian Retards Out Cruising
Step into the Wayback Machine, Camino I've always seen IROCs with the stripes (unless they were painted or clones). RS Camaros had the same body-color ground effects, but no stripes.- Italian Retards Out Cruising
- 2001 GMC Sierra 2500 SLT Ext Cab 4WD
From what I remember reading, the 6.0 is a very thirsty engine. So much so that you might as well go for a 3500 with the 8.1L big block. Beautiful truck, though, and very hard to say no to it. Maybe some aftermarket mods and/or a tune could bring the MPGs up.- Oh What a Feeling...
