`89 TGP joining the collection

Went out on a long test run through the neighborhood backroads and man what a car! I had to put some 1x4s down at the end of the driveway to keep from scraping the road. Also had a near panic moment coming across some new speed bumps. I recall seeing the lowered cars hit the bumps diagonally and that seemed to work just fine. To much traffic on the main roads and even on the backroads to get into the pedal though, plus the no tag thing...7 points -

Alright here she is, the 1989 Pontiac "2000 Le" from Trenton. For some reason that was what the auction lot labeled it as. I had a 3rd party inspector check it out and run the VIN prior to bidding. It was a one owner car from NJ until it went to the auction lot, a slight front end collision a few years ago that set its title into the salvage category. That had to have been repaired out of pocket and when the car was repainted as theres obvious overspray and some peeling around trim. Theres some slight scratches here and there as one would expect but over all it looks amazing for how old it is. 1st pic on the truck when it arrived, It didnt start at first so we pushed it off the trailer and into the driveway, the brakes worked great and the valence only suffered a little. It seemed to have a lot of odd electrical problems and wouldnt crank at all. Thinking it was the aftermarket alarm I went to pull the battery out so I could unplug the damn horn and saw it was from 2011. A new battery had the engine fired right up and I drove it around the block a few times then topped the tank off at the ethanol free place. ...TBC6 points -

NEW PURCHASE - 1994 Cutlass Supreme Convertible
rich_e777 and 5 others reacted to bluecalais79 for a topic
Over the weekend I did a down and back to central Florida to pick up a white 1994 Cutlass Supreme convertible I saw on Auto Trader. Pictures are forthcoming as I put the car right into storage for a few months until the weather turns. It has just under 60,000 miles and has the infamous 3.4 motor. It's got some issues but what old car doesn't. Someone got some crappy oily/sappy goo on the hood I will have to work at to get off. The weather-stripping around the tiny rear window is not staying on it so I'd better not drive this car in the rain until I fix that. The motor has a slight miss when idling and I'll guess being driven 100 miles in the last 10 (!) years might have something to do with that. I have new spark plugs and new spark plug wires on the way, it could use a good tune-up. The white top is filthy, I just ordered a kit to hopefully address that. The interior in this car is absolutely MINT and it's burgandy, really sharp. It has an aftermarket radio which gets the boot as soon as I locate a correct CD player so I can get those steering wheel controls working again. All in all I think this is going to be a great car once the above is addressed. NO rot underneath and no funny smells anywhere leads me to believe this car was always garage kept. Even the trailing arms have no rot. We'll see........6 points -

jiggity76 comes through once again!

My car has been missing this piece for as long as I and the guy before me have owned it. But today I got a "care package" in the mail from jiggity76 and inside was the moulding I have been missing and it is in WHITE. With about 20 minutes of my time disassembling and polishing, it's as close to NOS as a used piece is going to get. Now, a missing key piece to the car is in place.......6 points -
