well it deffinitly isnt running well , i go through alot of gas, i might get 8mpgs ? should i be adding lead additive or mystery oil in my tank when i fill up ? any of you guys heard of a guy named gary seekins ? he lives in south thomaston , maine. about 5 miles from my house. hes been into pontiac since the 70's. hes the guy who has the lot of old cars. i talked to him yesterday and heres whgat he has off the top of his head.
62 starcheif
66 catalina 4 dr
4 or 5 65-66 grand prix's
some other catalinas
hes got motors , intakes , tri power , posi rear ends i think , lots of good glass , door panels , interior , bench and buckets , dash's. ill be going back there in a week or so to get a complete list , but this guy hasa treasure trove of stuff.
some of the cars are rusted right into the ground but a few of the 65 grand prix's are ok. none of them have been moved since 91-92 he told me. i poked around a bit and theres so many good parts.
any idea if parts from the 65-66 cars will fit my cat ? i told him i need a 4bbl intake and carb and stuff like that. im going to drive my car up and compare parts and if they look like they mathc , then they should work correct ?
thanks
