NCReatta

Perhaps try the simplest solution of replacing the cam sensor? I have had the actual sensor go bad before and cause an intermittent 41 code. The sensor is one of the easiest to change.

I had a 1988 Reatta in the shop last week with this same issue. Customer had replaced the headlight switch with no luck. Ended up being a BCM. It was also causing what we would normally consider Central Power Supply issues. I.E. the car was stuck in RAP mode and wouldn't display the dash normally. We replaced the BCM with an OEM one. The one we removed was a Cardone "Reman"

Reservations can be made 1 year out. We had that outlined in the registration form but it was removed as I was told that nobody would get their Bugle until after the July 27th date. Reservations are now open and can be made online here: https://www.hilton.com/en/attend-my-event/thebuickclubofamerica2025/

I picked up files that were just the raw website pages. Since most of that is on Ronnie's site anyhow I didn't integrate it into my website. There was no current file for the database in those files. If youd like to sent it to me I can get it posted on the Reatta Division site if you'd like.

From the records I have dealer code 43-765 is the correct code for Roger Rodewald Buick GMC They received two Reattas in 1988. The other was 902275 - a Claret Red/Tan coupe with 16 way seats. Most dealers only received one Reatta for the 1988 model year. a handful received two and only a few big dealers got as many as 6.

Yes, when you come to the host hotel, walk into the lobby and turn left. Go down the ramp towards the banner that says registration and talk to Roy and Michelle. They will get you registered

In the trunk! We are packed tight but tonight is the last of 5 nights camping in Yellowstone and Grand Teton

We've been traveling through said heat and storm wave. Uneventful so far though. The Reatta is purring along well and averaging between 27 and 30 MPG. We're in western North Dakota this morning and will be in Yellowstone tonight. Camping for a few nights there and then in to the Tetons.

The show field will be on the hotel parking lot which is paved

No, they were ours as evidenced by the fact we are getting over 100 less now than we were supposed to get at the start of the week. You can complain about my prices all you want, but who else do you think would invest over $100,000 in this project? I don't see anyone else spending anywhere near that kind of money to support these cars. Sorry I don't have $5 parts for your $10 car.

We’ve been receiving messages and emails from a lot of you regarding our rear shock project. I owe you all some correspondence, so here’s what I know so far. Firstly, this info may change as I haven’t been able to get up with our sales rep at Monroe all week. They have gone radio silent all week. Secondly, we had to place an order for a minimum 1000 rear shocks in order for Monroe to produce the 71966 shock for us. We committed to that back in April. We were told Monroe would tool up and make them for us with that minimum order and only that minimum would be made. They assured us they had zero interest in holding inventory for what they referred to as an “obsolete part number” for them. They would produce them, but we had to buy them all. However, it appears that Monroe has been selling OUR order off the top of our pallets in their facility to everyone at well below our wholesale price without requiring the minimum order that they required from us. Essentially destroying this project for us. Our order was even shorted with only 976 units or less reportedly coming If you ordered shocks from anyone and the packing list says 71966-ST, you can thank us for that. That was our special part number for the order. Monroe has been stealing out units off our order and selling direct for well under our wholesale pricing. Monroe has continuously lied straight to our faces saying “we don’t fulfill direct for any retailers”, and that they’ve shipped our order. We still have yet to receive our order despite reportedly shipping from Monroe on Monday. Please bear with us while we try to get to the bottom of this. We have thousands of dollars tied up in this project and are committed to finding a resolution. Our intention is to renegotiate price with Monroe on what is left of our order (given how they’ve screwed us) and still fulfill all orders and offer folks a refund or store credit for the difference. Please stay tuned for more info, and we sincerely appreciate your patience in this matter. We are a small, family-run business who has been screwed by corporate America big time on this project and we are working to do our best for our loyal customers.

I'm registered and leaving in a week and a half! My wife and I'm are driving our 1988 Reatta out. Taking about 4 weeks for the trip total. Camping in Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks. Who else is driving?

If all goes as planned, we are about 90 days out of having reproduction rear struts ready to ship. They will be Monroe units sold exclusively by ECRP. Stay tuned for more info.

I have this 1988 with just under 4,000 miles that we’ll be selling at some point this year.

What is it with you guys and all this speculation? I’m not hard to find if you were genuinely interested and had questions about the history behind it. Happy to answer if you asked but I guess you guys would rather speculate that I dumped this car on this guy. Not the case at all and anyone who knows me knows I wouldn’t do that. I bought this car out of an estate along with 2 other cars. I bought them all as parts donors. The red coupe wasn’t even worth bringing home. That was stripped for anything usable and scrapped. The proceeds for that were donated to the Forney Transportation Museum in Denver for their employees help with some of the logistics of this buy. the white coupe had a partially disassembled motor and wouldn’t move under its own power. the blue car was probably the nicest of the three. Dirty, and a poor repaint but an extremely nice running car (ram so smooth I could hardly feel it running). The aforementioned mileage and attractive color combo along with the extremely clean underside caught the eye of my customer when I stopped to work on his car. He made me an offer and we came to a deal. Since it was headed for the parts yard, I figured I’d be willing to take a hit on what I could make parting it out to keep another car on the road. Plus he was just so excited about it. So we pulled it off the trailer and off I went. so as you can see, no nefarious dumping or leaving it for a “good reason”. The only good reason I left it was it kept another car on the road and out of the scrap heap. my customer did a great job cleaning up the Inteiror. Looks WAY better than when I left. This is a lot of car for the money. I think the only reason it hasn’t sold more quickly is the geographical location.
