Anyone around still have their GP?

I have mine back after a family member used it the past 5ish years. Driveable but the underbody rust is just terrible. A handful of minor issues but still strong at 185K!

Mine's doing duty as a winter driver now, I hit a coyote during the winter and snapped off about 1/3 of the front bumper a year ago. Other than that she's still kickin'.

Glad that it's still out and about, though it is a bummer that bumper's still damaged.

these seem to be Bradleys disguised as modern muscle cars.

I can't believe this forum is still going. Its crazy to see how besides the last probably 7 topics every topic is almost 5+ years old! Came to find some help for my GP and found people are still on here! When I joined I was on this forum every day!

yeah. it's actually kinda sad how far the community and this website has slid. however, it is pretty assuring that, even though CGP, GPF, and GPONA have died, this one lives on. granted, on intensive care life support.

I had to give mine up in 2011. Bought my '99 in new so it did last me 12 years.

Back in somewhere around 2004-2008, I tried to jack up the GP and I ended up puncturing the frame. Well, that started rust. It was at the point where it couldn't be jacked up anymore.

With my mods, it was definitely one of a kind and I kinda still miss seeing it.

I did enjoy that engine swap to a 2005 GTP and my custom hood. But I was painfully bored driving it. I really wanted something new.

Got a Camaro V6 now though.
