Another Canadian Buick with snow on it Before anyone asks - yes it's a clone. ALL possible OEM parts involved in the conversion except for the turbo. OEM rear suspension, rims, dash, etc. Probably could have purchased a matching number ride for less than it took to clone 3 years ago...

You are very correct. Now I'm curious.:confused:

If the parts weren't white it wouldn't be an X-Ray image now would it......;)

Rods I had an 84 Hurst/Olds and liked them "effect" enough to warrant searching for a second factory 4spd unit to put in my Buick. Don't be concerned about the racing and shifting part. I simply put my car in drive and there are no issues. I don't actually race by shifting through each gear...

The "chebby" is substantially heavier. An all aluminum twin turbo Buick V6 is 295 lbs. More on it here.

I'm certain lots of you racers that count pounds can cite this off the top of your head - give or take a few pounds. I'm merely trying to ascertain the weight of a fully equipped stock engine and also that for a Stage II - with either single or dual turbos. I've been contemplating a Buick...

Something else for those with more money than brains to purchase.

I like your post. Well put.

You are smack dab on. Sometimes "Thinking that a bid is too good of a price" is just that - too good. Will only matter if the buyer doesn't do his research on the legal nature that I'm certain more than a few members reading this thread emailed him about with concern.

I would hesitate to guess that the high bidder was thinking that his bid was an extremely good price for a very clean looking GN with OEM GNX parts that are quite pricey to obtain - IF you can obtain them - for a GNX clone/replica.

I had one of my other cars stolen and written off by the insurance company because of theft. I received the car back a number of weeks later after working a buy-out for recovery cost after damage to interior steering column, locks, missing stereo, and burnt out clutch/tires. Joyriding. I...

Same tranny with some modifications for shifting.

Missing pics in auction Did you guys read the text in this photo close? I asked the seller to email me four photos of the car prior to "reconstruct" and have received no response to date. No surprise there.

I'm in there bidding. You can always cancel bids up until the last 24 hrs anyway. Buyers can pull bids also up until that time. lol ;)
