First Time Out

[TurboJunky]

Just came back from taking the GN for it's first extended drive (45 min) of the season. What an experience, it's like taking a trip back in time with the Back to the Future DeLorean. As most of you know when you put a car away 7 months prior you forget how it drives and rides. It was a reminder how crappy certain technology was in 1987 considering how rides, how bad the original tires ride and stereo quality. This isn't to mention the Concert Sound II was supposed to be top of the line for Buick. By the way, the tires are not dry rotted and in great shape.

Obviously compared to today's standards Buick's bar was set pretty low. Odometer is about to turn 1,400 miles and I feel bad in a weird sort of way.

She's tucked back away in the garage awaiting the next large car event. Just thought I'd share....

I know exactly what you mean. My 84T sat for a little over 2 years with a smashed in fender and I finally got around to fixing it and getting her to the paint shop. Man it felt like someone elses car. I drive her every Friday if I can and it feels back to normal.
