Show off your ONE offs' Thread

[Darkcyde]

I thought I was start something interesting around here. Post pictures of your Grand Nationals or T-Types or WE4's super rare parts, so rare their 1 off piece! I have always been very interested in having my Grand National stick out from the rest. 1 Off pieces help accomplish this while also dumping some creative juice in the mind of other Buick owners. Some call it innovation, some call it creativity, but here in the west we call it Stease. So show off your 1 off pieces here, maybe you'll even find out there not 1 off pieces





I'll start, and these are on my families original owned 94 code 86 GN.
I bought two sets of 16" Riken Mesh Wheels (16x8" off a GTA, and 16x9.5" off a Corvette) and made 1 set staggered, then recut for backspacing and refinished the wheels with black powder coat and aluminum polish for the perfect fit and look. 3.75" lip in front, and 4.75" lip in the rear (sitting on 295's with NO Frame notch , its nice to go custom sometimes) Wheels pictures by xXxDarksidexXx - Photobucket In the Future I will also make a pair of 16x4" for when I go racing That too will be a 1 off pair to match this 1 off set, dam its going to be sweet.

All right who is next? Let see what you animals out there have done which is a complete 1 off piece!

Very cool wheels, Darkcyde.

Here are a couple of things off the top of my head...

Paul at World Of Motorworks helped me out a lot on this turbo cover.

Scot w. was my source for the one-off badges on the car.

The gauge setup a GNX cluster with custom SpeedHut gauges.

I decided the car needed a plate to go with it. So, here is the glove box panel.

Arrrgghhhh!! I think I hate you even more j/k

Everytime I see your car Barron, I just want to scream- because mine doesn't look as sweet.

Super sweet ride...

All of the lenses are painted. They were done by my painter when he did the car. I am not sure exactly whay materials he used, but I know there are a couple of guys here on the board tinting lenses and doing a very fine job of it.

How about a column shift GN? Pics of my 86 GN in the thread posted. Actually the entire car is a one off. I've got a 72 Skylark 8.5 rear axle underneath it with one of a kind back spaced GN chrome steel wheels.
