No I was a 13F, Forward Observer... bastard child of the field artillery... scouts hated us, infantry hated us, gun bunny's hated us... lol

That would be a nasty swap... but I did want to keep some of the essence of the GN with the turbo'd V6.

I can do all the body work and paint myself. Like I stated before I want this car, because it does need work and that's what I enjoy doing. I'm really looking to build a pro-touring style ride out of it by totally upgrading the suspension, brakes, rear-end, etc. Only thing I'm really needing...

Isn't there intercooler conversion kits and such for the 84'? Money isn't a real issue, hell I just spent $4,000 on a rifle build I just did... I just plan on doing a complete restoration of the body/interior and then building one hell of a drivetrain. I know I probably could buy a nice complete...

I'm new to the forum obviously, but just what to say hi. Also, I'm about to buy a 84' GN that's kinda rough but you gotta start somewhere right? Is there anything that is "need to know" about these cars? I'm going to be doing a full restoration of the body, and building the motor to somewhere...
