Thanks SuperSix & SW... I have to say that out of all the Forums I have visited and went through IHADAV8.com and Vortexbuicks are the ones I like the best they have the most helpful information supplied and the members are always eager to help...Its funny when I would have my BBC Camaro Nova or Chevelle which were nice cars sitting in my driveway noone ever asked me if I wanted to sell them or just stop by and talk ...But ever since my GN has been parked out there I have had at least 6 people just stop and ask if its for sale or yell out Nice car...Or when Im tinkering on it people just stop and want to talk about the car and how they remeber when they first came out or a friend owned one  ....Great car! :powersix:

Welcome aboard. You'll get used to people stopping and talking to you, but be careful. I had a guy drive up one day with a tow dolly behind his pickup and told me he was here to pick up "that old junker". Needless to say the pistol in his face told him no. LOL He'd said he bought it from someone and was here to get it and haul it to the scrap yard. Haven't seen him since in the area for some reason. :add_wegbrech: Go figure. :icon_fU:

Yeah, Steve helps everyone out!!!  He rocks.  But i've learned that most of(not all) of the guys on the board rock. Speedy responses and good patience. Some are even willing to help physically if you aren't too far from their lovation. Good to have another TR owner added to the freak show!!  Welcome
