Been forever since I've been here!!

Looks like a huge face lift/upgrade was done.

I'll be trying to stick around more often again.

So far, AC compressor took a dump (fixed), radiator cracked (fixed) and small maintenance stuff. Otherwise, I drive her about 75 miles a day and it never gets old.

Lol, just a PAIN to do any work on this car since EVERYTHING is special order... even the radiator hoses!

Welcome back. The traffic on here has really declined over the past 6 months or so, though.

i agree corey. I feel part of it has to do with everyone going there own way, but it doesnt help the fact that just out of nowhere the site went down for a little bit for the upgrade.

Ill be sticking around a little more as well, im considering buying another GP.

Wow, it is really quiet around here! Hopefully with the site back up, people will realize it and come back!

I think its combination of the site going down not long after the announcement of Pontiac ending. Many might have thought the two were connected.

I'm happy to report that my son is keeping the T-Bat washed and clean (its still early on) but I have high hopes he will continue.


I have discovered a few maint items on the Bonne, but a recent road trip to PA returned 29mpg!...and I'm plenty happy with that!

With all the GPs still on the road and aftermarket support still out there, I think the board will see a rebound in the spring.

I wonder if the Mods can send an email to all members announcing the site is back up?

I don't have powers to do a mass email. And I'm not about to go to every account 257 pages worth and send all of them a personal invite.

Send Redshift a PM or email. He might have the powers.

Hey guys I lurk around once in awhile. But we had our second kid about 6 months ago so any hopes I had of modding further have gone away.

Actually my car is a little neglected right now and I'm waiting for the winter rain to stop so I can fix an exhaust leak that I've had for awhile, and to do a spring tune up.

Best of luck to you guys. Keep modding!
