Correct, in 1988 the Cutlass was both a FWD, Cutlass W Body and a RWD, G Body for a short time. I think the W Body was a Cutlass Supreme. They made an international series that was pretty sporty. It...

The GM bulletin is about using the correct PF63 and 64 oil filters instead of using the similar sized PF48 filters in the newer engines.

No, you could get buckets and console on all Grand Prixs. I had an '86 LE and it was buckets, console and gauges. I also had an '86 2+2 and it was the same interior. The 81 and newer had the sleeker...

I bought a 1976 Firebird with a swapped in 455 about 6 years ago. I wanted a T/A but they were about 15-20,000 more. I got a "plain Jane" that I could do whatever I wanted with. To me, the one that...

I would rather have a Pontiac over an Olds, but that is just me and probably most people here on this forum. It seems the Pontiac V-8 is the easiest to swap for the 301.

Nice car but if I wanted that engine, I would have bought a ZL1 Camaro instead. I agree, a large Pontiac motor would be better but that's just my opinion.

I can't believe people want to buy that thing. I seems that some people want to be the first adopters. I can buy a beautiful new Duramax diesel 2500 HD Silverado for less that that useless "truck".
