G-Body parts
Well I thought parts for my 71 GTO were hard to find but 81-87 Grand Prix parts are about impossible anymore. I've been having problems for years with the driver side door on my 85. Inner structure breaking apart and the top of the door. Plus trying to keep the power windows working properly.
Yard I normally deal with didn't have any doors w power, and wanted $200 a piece for manual doors. I got lucky and found a pair of manual doors for $200 for the pair. Over a two hour drive to get them but other than one minor dent they're perfect condition. I think I may try to start hoarding G-Body parts and maybe help someone else out down the road.
