Windshields, and all the other glass, are designed to stay in place during a crash.Makes it very hard to remove without breaking. Just my opinion, Kenny

Pre metric Brits also used the Witworth measuring system ask someone who tinkers with pre WW2 brit bikes.

That front facia can be done in fibreglas fairly easily. Carve it out of foam and do a hand lay up.I had a very similar front air dam/spoiler for my 67 mustang that was made by Meiers, maybe one of their parts could be modified to fit. We used thr round holes for cooling ducts to the brakes.Just an idea, Kenny

FSM is the field service manual. use the 89 version. sign up under documentation, get your name and password, and look it up. hope you have a high speed connection but it does work on very slow dial up [like mine]

88, 268k, I can't think of a better candidate to try this on, bet it looks fabulous.

Read the back posts, it's real.

As far as I know and have tried they can be dyed or painted but will look like ****. New seat covers are available in correct leather and paterns from www.buickreattaparts.com They are plug and play with the wiring in place under the seat and/or carpeting. No idea on rarity or cost,but the more experienced members may know. Kenny

Take her down the highway and see how she feels. Please note that the reatta has a GT or "sport tuned suspension" rather than the classic big boat ride. Enjoy, Kenny

How long was it "in the barn" before you got it? How is the son with the broken arm? Did you at least give him a ride home in Moms new convert? WE really are on your side, Kenny

Maybe Aurora E=brake cable?

Nav info is great up where you can see it easily! I told you to build a heads up display so you don't even have to take your eyes off the road. Seriously, sounds like a great idea.what's your source for a 7" display? Kenny

The elector-luminecent console lights and the switch pannel lights are out on my 88 coupe. The ic lights dim when the headlights are turned on and brighten when headlights are turned off. Is this an inverter problem? If it is, who has one for sale and how hard to change? Thanks, Kenny

BRAVO, BRAVO !!!!!

WWW,SummitRacing.com has drilled and slotted rotors for about $59 each.

I believe you unbolt the compressor from the brackets so it can be moved out of the way without disconnecting the lines. I am sure someone will correct this if I'm wrong. Kenny

Thanks, my old 6.2 GMC diesel ran real well with 12-14psi from the turbo and Brownie 3speed gear splitter for 12speeds total.Guess I was a gear jammin' fool.

How much boost will a 3800 and reatta ecm stand?

I'll bet you've figured out how to put the rear facing car seat in for the baby already too. We are all so happy for you,you really brighten up our day. Kenny

GO FOR A DRIVE!!!!! Even if it is not beautiful out. "one of 60" is excellent. Just be prepared to explain at every gas stop.

Been to York, been to Leeds, they took him to one of the best hospitals in the UK.

Sounds great! Are the new calipers still single piston? IMHO use braided stainless brake lines when you replace the rubber lines. you'll have even better feel and control. When will you do your braking distance tests? Can't wait for the results, Kenny
