gp90se Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 (edited) My 96 cutty 3100 went from mass to maryland for camaro nationals. Night before leaving, I broke a rear strut mount and bent the sheet metal which took less then an hour to repair then swap. P.side front wheel bearing is going bad it's humming on right turns. Car now has 145k original intake gaskets, transmission and suspension. It was beat on by the last owner and rigged back together by his father. I have changed out the brakes, repaired a transmission line, waterpump, radiator hose and the one strut assembly. It had been a while I have owned a w-body, but I'm so overall impressed with this 300 dollar car that the wife drives I think may junk my jeep and get another grand prix Edited June 28, 2011 by gp90se Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oilpatch197 Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Agreed, has there been a better design since the W-body with the 3800 series? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oilpatch197 Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Obviously a typo, a 3100 is a good motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gp90se Posted July 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 Original lim gasket, original trans and original exhaust for a rust felt car, that's unheard off. One more f u to the imports, so sick of hearing how reliable they are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
