very nice GN, I notice it say Conleys Performance Plus. They are the guys who are finishing my stage 2 GN right now. Very nice and gotta love the 3 car garages in AZ. Dont know if you heard of my car from Lawrence "Fear".?

How many miles are on that car? I know odometer-rollover is a problem when trying to find out how much they've really been driven. Also, how old is the paint?

It's very nice but with all their power it would be nice if they had come with wider wheels. I like those a lot.

If I sell my '69 I'd sure like to get my hands on one of them... I'm just afraid the turbo stuff/computer would confuse me.


That's one slick car.

They don't fit securely and I lost mine years ago.

Generally my mobile or iPod charger is plugged into it though.

I just removed the banner from the rear window today.

Conleys did all the work on my car about three years ago, they are awesome to deal with, incredibly knowledgable and perform first class work. You tell them exactly what you want your Buick to do and they will make it so. I couldn't be happier with my experience.

63,000 original miles, I have all the maintenence records on the car since it was brand new, each with an odometer reading. The paint is all original.

I don't like the wheels either. They're tiny and heavy. If I were keeping it I'd get a set of Simmons F-Series or Fikses in body color with a polished lip, probably 17" in diameter. I'd also lower the car an inch or so and put some big Baer brakes behind the wheels.

outstanding,

don't know why you would sell it, but certain things have to happen.

to take care of a care and keep it pristine is rare these days

I've always wanted a Grand National...maybe in a few years. I love the sleeper look of those things, you'd never think they are that fast by looking at them!

I've only been there twice in the last few months. Both times the car was MOBBED. There was also a white T-Type stripped down for drag racing, looked mean.
