Oh boy! Now that I have solved my tranny problems (rather expensively but lets just leave it at that ok) I took it to the big E yesterday and back today and am really glad to report other than a rough idle and one back light that doesn't light it was snag free. Also chewed the miles up like a bugger. Seems...

A milestone day today. I have owned my GP for 24 years today! In that time we have covered 7 miles short of 24,000 miles, about 5000 miles coming from the Cannonball we ran together back in '99. Just wanted you all to know how happy I am to be in contact with you all and felt like letting you know. How long...

Hello everyone. I just received my wire harness kit from E-Z Wiring and have identified 90% of the wires that I need to use, etc. What I can't seem to find is a manual that shows all the wiring for this car. I have the owners manual, but it is to general. What I require is more of a schematic drawing. If anyon...

I'm sure you've all seen the cable restraints that attach from the engine manifold to the upper A arms in the 65 to 69 cars that were subject to the big GM recall. When I was picking up the latest evidence of my Pontiac addiction yesterday (1967 Grande Parisienne 2 door, very light rust, good frame, sha...

Hi There I am new here and I have a problem that I hope someone will be able to help with. It has to do with the charging. When the vehicle is first started the needle show a full charge and the the needle on the meter does not stay at a steady reading. It sort of does a little dance or pulses. I have a feeling that...

Hi Guys, I just recently purchased a 66 Grand Parisienne convertible, and need some help finding parts, especially emblems. She's missing the Grande on the sides and the Pontiac on the trunk lid to start. Any help would be appreciated, as parts are hard to find as I''m finding out. Cheers, Caarmy ...

Hi guys I've been a bit quieter than usual due to actually having very little to say, working on and off, but also partly because I actually have been working on the car for a change! I figure I want to have this thing roadworthy by May 17th, for the Victoria day weekend. Maybe a bold and foolish stateme...

Got an interesting topic here. Took the old girl for a ride yesterday to work because the weather was wonderful.

Not sure how many others of you do this but I am a fanatic in snapping pictures of the odometer when it shows all like numbers..

Seeing Ken's post on another thread prompted a question I have meant to ask. Years ago on my 4 speed car I bolted on a rear bar just using pipe spacers on the bolt to keep from collapsing the arm when I tightened the bolts. Has anyone used something better to stiffen the arm? I know I can weld in lower plates b...
