I wanted to start a thread showing the "tune up" of my 87 GN...and most importantly to give some thanks to my really good friends who have helped me out along this journey! I have owned this car since 1994, and it has been a blast since day one! This thread will document the build up, and I hope to provide some technical help and answer some questions that other members can use along the way. It will take me a bit to get all the pictures loaded up...so be patient! Anyway, here is my "Junkbrick" as I pulled it into the shop last fall

The car has been rode hard for the past 8 or so years...I knew that everything was in need of some attention!
more to come...[/URL][/URL][/URL][/URL]
