Nice car! I like the headlamp setup for some reason. :?

I missed your thread and commented on your dubahya body in "his" thread :booty:
and he got all mean and nasty with me... :cry: :cry: :lol: So I'm here to give you PROPS! Apparantly your car was so sparkly I didn't even see a rora in the picture :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :joke: But not kiddin on that your car looks great! :wink: |
yea its nothin like having to olds representing there unique culture
|
That new spoiler sets off the car really nicely. Its a perfect fit.
|
very nice looking Cutlass! You're keeping it in great shape.
|
Jim we'll have to post the rest of our pics. We had some other great shots. Do you already have them all uploaded somewhere?
At first the SSEEEYAA plates looked out of place on the Cutlass, maybe just because I was too used to seeing them on the Bonne. I was actually thinking of just keeping these and getting new plates, but I would have had to turn these plates in and I didn't want to do that. So I figured I'd keep the plates for this car, and let a part of the Bonne live on so to speak :lol: But they still apply to this car. After a day of driving it I was actually impressed with how it ran. It isn't the torque monster the Bonneville was but it is still pretty quick and ballsy, shifts nice and high, and it has a HUGE amount of potential. Plus 'sseeeyaa' wasn't only meant to refer to being a 'fast' car. It was more meant to refer to how I drive in comparison to most others :wink: (although I have been babying the car lately). This car has eaten a good amount of rice so far though. :lol: |
The Cutlass looks like it's in awesome shape. Good job.
BTW-I like you two guys' siggys...very cool! |
Those are the stockers...he needs em too...you should see the engine rock and roll when its started and shut down :shock:
|
For the super deluxe get it on RSM dogbones, they want $70 bux, might be better to go OE on those one. Pete mentioned something about the fluid filled mounts...interesting fact, the car sat for a while, so I dunno if that helped or hurt the issue. Either way, I wont say to much about it...Peter knows more about it then me :lol:

ya......uh huh...ok :roll: :wink:

Well I like the 95-96 GP's. :lol: :wink:
Thanks for the compliments everyone. Glad you like our sigs too PJ :wink: Don, I did paint the dogbones, and parts of the engine, so it looks new. That could be why you thought I replaced them already. :wink: The RSM dogbones are $70 each, I think..the guy at RSM actually wasn't 100% sure. :roll: But they are polyurethane and are claimed to recover 10lb/ft of torque. If OE replacements could do that I would just do that for cost sake. But if they are just rubber I won't get OE. The guy at RSM mentioned that I could just replace the rubber I have with the polyurethane bushings. There isn't anything wrong with the metal dogbones themselves anyway. I'll just have to find the right size bushings. I put the car in drive today and revved while my foot was on the brake, and the engine didn't torque TOO much. But when I shut it off it kind of shakes a little more. And who knows how much it torques back when I give it all I have on the highway. I may have to replace that fluid-filled mount too. :? This is a good car. 53,200 miles and runs great. I'll just continue to watch the coolant level. It has been dropping recently, and I sure don't have several hundred bucks to have the gaskets replaced. |

The fluid filled mount going bad is a commong problem on these cars... Nothing new... Other than that you car seems to be in great shape... Keep the oil changed and keep on rolling... :wink:
Any ideas/ suggestions as to what to do about this little problem, or where this coolant is going? I never had to fill my tank in the Bonne. Can gaskets even go bad when the car sits? I figured they would go bad with a lot of use. Maybe I'll check the radiator closely for a small leak :? For now I think I'm ok, because if there were any internal leaks my car wouldn't be running. Especially since I just did a 500+ mile round trip with no problems. |

The coolant loss can be anything from the radiator to the heater core... And sometimes the intake gaskets will leak internally, and not always make themselves known... Keep an eye on it... I know a lady that has 150,000 + miles on her 95 and she has still not had any problems with the intake gaskets... Bring your olds to florida and we'll fix it .... :wink:

Looks great........even if you had to turn in the plates,the memories of Runner will live on for all of us!!!!!! :cry:
|
Nice car. Very nice :) I'll be up soon to take posession of the car. Don't get in my way; lest you feel the prick of a lightning bolt touch your groinal area...
|
Great looking car Pete. Will have to get a look at it up close and personal. :wink:
