1 of 2000 made. It was stripped and painted with a base/clear. Fiberglass bumper fillers, new marker lights, headlight bezels, 87 grill, and all new gaskets/seals. The floor pans have been POR'd and there is zero rust in the body. All original panels, doors, etc. It has GTA wheels, wide off-set in the back, normal off-set up front. It has 5/16 spacers up front with 2" studs. The rims were blasted, powered coated, and cleared and it has GNX center caps with the correct GM lugs with caps. The rims are wrapped in brand new Firestone tires. The interior is the Lier Ziegler (leather) with new front and rear seats. All plastic panels were cleaned and painted with the correct Sandstone Gray flex paint for plastic. The interior looks new but does have tiny imperfections but nothing of concern. It has a dual gauge piller with boost and knock gauge. The center console has oil and temp gauges. All gauges except for the knock gauge are Auto Meter. The speedometer and tach are off but I use the Scanmaster for those indicators. The car has 101,000 miles. I put an 1986 engine in it and it still retains the 84 tranny. I replaced the valve body and servo with one from an 86 (BRF). Tranny was rebuilt 2k miles ago and has the D5 converter. A 3200 stall will come with it. The engine has a new starter, alternator, AC compressor, 59mm turbo, 60lb inj., billet fuel regulator, 160 thermo, front mount intercooler, poly motor mounts, and 3" down pipe. I converted it to vacuum brakes and put aluminum drums on the back. I have the original engine, wiring harness, brackets, etc. It does have flaws as I have owned the car for 12 yrs and originally bought it in GA. Its spent most of the time in SC and OK and I dont drive it in the rain. The AC blows cool, not cold. Everything works even the cruise control. The vehicle is sold "as is".

2013 Buick Verano Turbo
Thu, 03 Jan 2013Not Luxury. Not Sport. Not Buick. Not Bad.
Those of you who still think of the Buick Verano as some sort of callously badge-engineered, gussied up version of the Chevrolet Cruze ("Why would anyone spend that much money on Buick's Cruze?" you may have been heard to mutter) have got the wrong idea. Entirely. Even in its most modest form, the Verano turns out to be a sedan that is feature-rich, insulated from wind and road noise in proper luxury car fashion, pretty good to drive and not bad to look at in the new school of high-nosed pedestrian-impact-regulated fashion. In a less modest form then, one that attaches the word "Turbo" to the moniker and plops a force-fed 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood, the Verano is downright interesting.
Of course, "interesting" is rarely a descriptor that fills one with lust - and so it goes with this example. There are two competing forces within this near-premium subcompact sedan, and the balance struck between them must resonate with any potential customer before the Verano Turbo can become a serious purchase consideration.
GM recalling 2013 Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac SRX over transmission software
Thu, 21 Mar 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued recalls for the 2013 Buick LaCrosse and 2013 Cadillac SRX due to a problem with the software for the transmission controller. On about 27,000 SRX and LaCrosse models, the transmission could accidentally be shifted to Sport mode, which would reduce the amount of engine braking drivers experience.
NHTSA says this could increase the risk of a crash, but, fortunately, the required fix is simply an update to the software.
While we're on the subject of General Motors vehicle recalls, a small number (48) of compressed natural gas versions of the 2011 Chevrolet Express are also being recalled for a potential risk of fire or explosion. Yikes. Both official recall notices are posted below.
GM finds steering flaw, decides it doesn't warrant a recall
Tue, Apr 14 2015Guess what? General Motors is back in the spotlight for not recalling something. This time, though, not only does the company have an argument against a recall campaign, but its position is supported by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. According to The New York Times, over 50 owners of GM vehicles have reported instances of stuck or seized steering after driving long distances without moving the wheel. One owner complained to NHTSA that the "locked" steering of their 2013 Buick Verano caused a collision with a concrete barrier in a construction zone. Along with the 2013 to 2014 model year Verano sedans, Chevrolet Cruze and Malibu sedans are also affected. Considering the popularity of those models, GM needs to have a reason for not issuing a recall, right? "Based on a very low rate of occurrence – ranging from less than one half to less than two incidents per thousand vehicles – and the fact that the condition is remedied when the wheel is turned, GM determined this was not a safety issue," spokesman Alan Adler told The Times. The company has, however, issued a technical service bulletin for owners that complain of the problem. The fix is nothing more than a software update that is covered for 10 years or 150,000 miles from new. NHTSA cited GM's actions, along with descriptions of the problems from customers, in its decision not to issue a recall, with spokeswoman Catherine Howden saying, "the symptoms described would be a brief, perceptible change in steering feel that has little to no effect on the driver's ability to safely steer the vehicle." "When terms like 'notchy,' 'stick,' 'slip' or 'feel' are used, it does not indicate a meaningful increase in steering effort," Howden told The Times via email. What do you think? Is GM in the wrong here? Should there be a recall, or is the issue so limited as to not warrant one? Have your say in Comments.
