    NOS Buick Hood Insulation Pads

    Not a bad idea…I’m heading to Hawaii in October. Best to just move them both though and be done with them. I’m not coming back to Buicks unfortunately.

    NOS Buick Hood Insulation Pads

    Pricing on everything around here seems to have gone up. Nonetheless, I agree $3,600 US is steep. Pretty sure I paid four figures each years ago before any knock-offs were being built though. I'm looking for something fair but definitely not looking to gouge anyone. I'm just worried if they...

    NOS Buick Hood Insulation Pads

    Been out of the game for quite some time now, but still have a lot of nice parts sitting in my shop that I'm slowly getting around to moving out. Back in the day these pads were rarer than unicorn nuts and priced accordingly. Now I see there are some repros being made, but the quality looks...

    Concours Level Restoration

    I have a bunch of original parts that I would likely be willing to sell, as I'm heading in a different direction. These include an original exhaust, several NOS hood liners, and the only set (that I know of anyways) of original date coded factory tires still new in their wrappers. Two...

    Currectrac Billet Rear Lower Control Arm

    I ordered these from SC&C back when they were still available. I finally got to opening the boxes and found Currie drop-shipped 3 UCAs and 1 LCA. :( I'd really like to run these with my Currectrac UCAs. If anyone has one or a pair in like new condition, I'd be very interested.

    FS/FT: 2001 Speedway White Z06 - 20K Miles, 800HP

    Yes. Although I have to drop the lift and wake it from its winter hibernation still. Maybe this weekend if the weather holds.

    Chassis flex

    It's truly amazing just how much flex these frames have. My frame is heavier now but the difference in rigidity is huge.

    Factory Frame Welds

    Meh. It's a $25,000 car...can't even buy a nice new Malibu for that. Why start with junk? It's not like I couldn't replace it in ten minutes on the internet anyways.

    Where to buy a frame notch kit?

    Why did you notch your frame so far forward? Your wheel well opening on your rear quarter panel ends like 6" further back. I wouldn't advocate notching right up to body mount #4. You're skinning the frame right where the rear LCA mounts to the frame. Not a good idea IMO.

    Where to buy a frame notch kit?

    Won't fit with the floor pan in the rear seat area. :(

    Where to buy a frame notch kit?

    I'm trying to do the mental gymnastics to figure out if this setup would be beneficial at the rear, tying in the rear lower LCA mounts and extending forward on the frame from there. Might be able to get a twofer. :)

    New Rear frame brace Brackets!

    You would think. But oddly enough, this brace does help.

    Where to buy a frame notch kit?

    I don't recall anyone else off hand. But as someone who tried to install a boxing kit today unsuccessfully, I would suggest you do it yourself. The frames on these cars seem to have very...umm...loose...tolerances.

    Best GN Dash!

    Looks good, especially if one factors in the ease of install. I'd love to see a video of one of these in operation...day and night...before making a final decision though. I really like that it's GPS ready for the speedo. That's definitely the route I plan on going.
