Default Not enough Buicks here!

So I thought I would help correct that. I have a 1970 Buick Skylark with a Procharged 455. My daughter has a 1987 GN. 14 years ago when I first got my Buick I knew that I wanted it to handle better than stock. This is old school now but at the time way ahead of the curve; front end has Global West upper a-arms with b body spindles, Global West 600# springs, QA-1 single adjustable shocks and a Helwig 1 3/8 th's bar. Back end is a 12 bolt, Currie lower control arms and Edelbrock upper control arms. Has the Edelbrock upper/lower control arm brace.

Last year I upgraded to a Turn One 600 steering box. Not race car specs but very good street manners. Rids and steers very well, handles much better than any stock a body.

The GN is getting upgraded with all new 1 inch lowering springs and Varishocks if they ever come in.

Will be putting 2002 Camaro brakes on the GN this winter.
