    Used Weld Pro Stars 15x8& 15x6

    My Uncle managed Weld back when these were made. They took a lot of pride in these, and put great efforts into quality. $400 is a gift. I have a set on my dragcar (that my Uncle made for me) and will say that they are spectacular. If you would ship them ~ I would buy them for the heck of it.

    Things that buick should have got right the first time

    For me I could only afford select options. So, I only ordered 9 of them. It made for a $286 a month payment. I wanted it to look optioned, be lightweight, and do it inexpensively. Posi, tinted glass, halogen headlamps, GN package, Tilt, Power windows, Cruise, Concert sound & lastly AM/FM with...

    Things that buick should have got right the first time

    I dunno. My 1986 (in Nov of 1985) was $14,400 out the door (after negotiation). For that you get drum brakes, an experimental power brake system, Grandfathers gauges, ribbon tach (that was considered cool then BTW), and a jankey space saver spare. Go look at the price of the 1986 Porsche 911...

    Driver Side Fender

    I did all of the instructing yes! BMW, Ferrari, Porsche club, even Corvette. I had a 911 S/C (in your video). Hot rod ~ of course. And a '91 C2 Turbo (Guards Red) that I did a lot of track time with. And a '78 930 (Grand Prix white), 993, Boxsters, bunch of racecar 944's, and now racecar...

    Oh yes, I know. I was there. I watched your old time stuff video. I am a 911 guy, have been since birth. I have had every conceivable variation, and I am at ABCC with them all of the time (when not at Road America). Porsches park next to my Buick.

    Holy smokes! I was there (in your track footage). That is some old time stuff. The 1988 sounds right-on. Autobahn in Joliet your thing?

    If you are considering a real deal street scene ~ our industrial park areas (that I am normally part of in the wee hours of the morning) can deliver. Plus... Actual tracks are close.

    Leak down test

    You want it 100psi so that you are representing compression. That way you will get a "leak" through the rings, or a valve seat etc. At 30psi you re not even making enough to show squat. I am sure you tried it at 100psi yes?

    Locate Previously Sold 87 GN

    I bought a new 1986 that I tracked down. Called the current owner (did not answer), sent a text (he read it, but did not respond), sent him a mailed letter (with copy of the original window sticker) and he still would not communicate. Car had not been on the road for a few years, but he wanted...

    Grand National is still the one

    Saw this being passed around at the latest auction I was at (Mecum FL). No doubt the Grand National is still the one.

    Advice on cleaning emblems

    I have seen that before... I think a jeweler would have an idea or two. These are basically cloisonné crest so maybe someone in that industry could come up with something.
