1987 Monte SS. It is on the back burner but it is ready for paint and I will get to it some day. Not for sale as I have had it longer than any other car I've ever owned, about 8 years now.

[NOT A TA]

I've got an 60,000 mile 81 2 dr Malibu Classic W/Landau roof in my paint jail (it's out for a roll cage right now)getting it's 2nd makeover since I've owned it. Also have a 42,000 mile 88 Cutlass Supreme classic V8 stock unmolested I'm going to have to sell.

Edit update: Sold the 88 Cutlass, painted the Malibu

I ve owned over 30 rides and one of my favorites was a 78 mailibu I had with a 350 that I installed a t-56 in back around mid 1998. I had that one for years and it was unique for this area but was sacrificed when we bought our first house. Now several states, several houses, and several f-bodies later I have an 84 Grand national. Work is progressing very slow on it but its a driver. Plans change daily but I love the LSX BLOCKS. Not sure that will happen but currently more on restoration salvage mission, modifying where I know I want change. I really need to do a frame off and notch rear rails, weld up seams, and box frame. I just havent taken the leap yet. Lots of G-body lurkers on here, I know. Check out Its notagn on turbobuick.com He built a turbocharged 6 liter Ls series gn. It runs 10's on 6 or so lbs of boost
