How's it going. I LOVE Pontiacs, have two tatoos to prove it.

Stumbled across this board while looking up GP stuff. This is my second late model Grand Prix. I've got a 97 GT that I just picked up on Saturday. I had a 96 SE about 8 years ago. My first car was a 1980 Grand Prix, then I also had a 77 GP with t-tops and a decently built 400 in it(wish I still had it). I've also had a 77 T/A and an 85 Firebird.

Anyways just figured I would make a post to say hi before I pick your brains for any info I can't find on my own. I will try to get some pics up here of the 97 if I can figure out how to do it, it's been a while since I've put pics on a message board.

Tbat the Xs are on your end.

He's got a descent looking black two door with the silvered cross lace wheels.

And looks like the car was in the way of the street sweeper from the way the leaves are gathered around it.

Nah it was just windy as hell the day I took the pics. It blew all the leaves to the sides of the street.

I don't think I'm gonna do to much to the car. Gonna get the paint chips fixed and get it buffed, get some blackouts, and do the red vinyl on the badges. May get some new wheels next year, but I like the way these look. Performance wise I may just do a PCM, Cold Air Intake, and a strut tower brace.

I live in Bellevue, wich is connected to the south end of Omaha if you don't know the area to well.

I just looked up where Wall Lake is. I've never never been there, but am not to far from there at least 3 times a year. I drive just to the west of it when I head up to Okoboji.
