90 convertible

I am looking to sell my 96 Park Avenue Ultra - - is there a year limit or model limit or can it be posted here? Jack

SOLD My car moved to Upstate New York on Sunday the 18th. She will be sharing space with a few coupes - and I think she will be very happy! Sorry again for the delays in postings.

I'm sorry for the picture delay, I was in New Orleans on business and left the Sunday before the storm. We are in the process of moving our Corp offices from St Charles Ave to New Jersey, what a hassle. WE have families who lost their homes and are also relocating here, been runnung around trying to help get the kids settled in school. http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/jjk5463/al...m/ph//my_photos I'm hoping the link above will direct you to my yahoo picture album. If this does not work, I will fix it as soon as possible. Thanx for your understanding. Jack

I have a 1990 convertible - I need to sell. I had it in Batavia for the National meet, and had a buyer, but he just picked up another great collectible and doesn't want it anymore. It is in running condition, it needs a bit of TLC. 103k miles. I have had it for 2 years, had some dealer work done to it, and have not had the time to get to the cosmetics it needs. I will pst pix as soon as I can get my wife to "loan" me the digital camera I bought her for Christmas...

Is everyone still going to Batavia? - I just booked a room a the Holiday Inn yesterday! When I tried a few months ago it was booked solid! - Great for me to get a room, bad for me if no one will be there!!

I just got my Bugle in the mail, and noticed 2 of the hotels in Batavia are already booked for July. Guess I should get a room now. How fast does the car coral fill up? I want to put my Reatta in, may be forced to sell - the wife wants more seats!! Jack

Been a while since I posted here. FINALLY got that tune up I was planning on. Wanted a dealer service - now I don't know if I'm sorry or not. The impressive 3 PAGE BILL is very clear on everything they did - they did just about everthing I wanted done. Total Parts cost 405.93 Tax 85.56 ------------ Total 491.49 Not a bad price - they did a lot of work oh wait I forgot the labor charge! Labor 1,019.95 -------------- NEW TOTAL 1,511.44 Did I get hosed with those new hoses?! - - PLEASE SOMEONE TELL ME IT's OK!! Went to inspection and failed - they said something wrong with the front left suspension, neighborhood mechanic found nothing wrong (hum - still hear sometihng rattle) and gave me new sticker for $60.00. Yesterday went to the car after it sitting a few days, hard time cranking engine - sounded like battery going - tried jumping with Park Avenue - - no good - - now no crank at all. Pushed it out of the garage - neighborhood garage comes and tows it away He tried charging - had to bring extra keys - thought maybe the chip was bad - - still nothing - - tried new starter and everything fine again. Another $200. THis weeks grand total $1,771.44 Oh how nice - - I got a great Thank you card today in the mail from the dealer - - think they want me back?? I guess the interior and the roof will have to wait til next year. Hopefully THAT will be cheaper!! Guess I'll call you in the Spring Mike (Reattadudes) JAck

Oh thank you Barney for coming to the Northeast next year - - - I will definately be there next year!!! Jack

NICK My Favorite vacation destination - - my family just sold a house in Pine Island -

Hey Brazx2, Back in 88 I bought a brand new Regal. 1st year new design - luved the car. Drove it on the Jersey turnpike and she just shutdown at 60 mph. Dealer had no clue!!! Sent me on my way for it to happen a few more times. Finally they found it to be a Mass Air Sensor. Hope this helps you!! JAck

I had them on my 91 Riv - - but they were wood tone.

Thanx Barney, I was going to try and find some new material and replace it. I have the tan and it looks terrible!! Do the door covers come off the same as the rear ones, just pop off from the front? Thanx Jack

I have my laudry list Any one got a ball park price for repair? Would you go to a dealer or a regular mechanic? (I just about know where to put the gas) If regular mechanic - Hey Mike (ReattaDudes) give me your contact in Long Island. Appreciate all comments!!!

I have the same problem but my fog lights also come on, if I do not switch the fog lights on, as I am driving they turn off and on, I look like a dope so I just switch the fog lights on when I get in the car. I am going to get it fixed very soon. Tonight I noticed that whenever I apply the brake, all the lights dim a bit - could this be an alternator - - please tell me yes, I think that would be easier than a electrical rewiring.
