1989 Grand Am - Sold
1995 Caravan - Sold
2001 Volkswagen Jetta - Totaled - POS never again will buy import
2003 Dodge Neon - Sold (wife's car)
In the Garage:
1994 Cutlass Supreme Vert White on Black formally LQ1, modded L67 2012

Thanks! Here's a sneak peak of the current living conditions, less the GS which stays outside under cover.

Cutlass is under contruction, first thing first: suspension rebuild and LQ1 removal.
I may need some parts off the Regal, otherwise, I will be admiring this project quite a bit

The pale one is my wife, I figured I better not toss her face around the net :lol:
The regal will be available for parts this summer (clock @ ~120k), best car I ever owned it'll be sad to see it go. Everything will be available, except the motor, transmission, wireharness, pcm, and axels. Cd player does not work (radio is good), rear passenger window motor won't work in warm temps, and the infamous ignition / blinker switch starting acting up same day I blew a tire, which is why I parked it Dec 2011 and brought the Accord to life.
Slick I remember you and i'm seeing a lot of names pop up that I recognize from those days good to see a lot of familiar faces, if you will, still around. Life happened, good and bad. Glad to be back.
The one thing i've noticed dissappear is the parts for this generation! Luckily I stock piled most of the suspenion parts I needed way back then, looks like I'd be sol these days.

There's a few guys that make suspension parts now. In fact, you can build your own coil overs from the parts bin at most online retailers cheaper than what was available way back when.

Was the Vert the one you had a Turbo install done to?
