| Hi everyone I am new to this forum after exploring it and liking it a lot more than buickforums. I am a 28 y/o machinist from Texas and own several cars. My wagon is a 92 Roadmaster with custom 2 tone paint, top half is flat black, bottom half is cream white with a orange pin stripe dividing the colors. Mods so far are brand new Monroe shocks and brand new springs all the way around. Car was lowered with cut coils on front and skylark springs in the rear, now it is back to stop height and rides better than I could have hoped. Wheels and tires, I have stock gm wheels painted red with moon eye hub caps and brand new white wall tires (pics coming soon). So far It has only 98500 miles!!!!! only had to replace a starter and flush the tranny and change the filter, plugs wires, and goodyear gatorback belt. All front end bushings/balljoints replaces and properly greased. And ice cold R12 A/C! 2 Imco (flowmaster knockoffs) mufflers waiting for true dual exhaust installation New flowmaster Catalytic converter! ( works great) The bad so far.... The passenger side blinker sticks when brake is pressed down. The fuel line going into the tank leaks when you have a little more than a full tank. ( when you top off the tank it doesn't leak once its not over the tank) Cranks on the second crank more than the first. Leaky intake manifold gasket, (got one just haven't replaced yet) it has the TBI 350 lol Such a great car though I get compliments everywhere I go and see people sneaking pictures of it. Anyway I look forward to posting a lot more on this forum. Thank you all!!!

| Ah that works, plan some Dallas runs soon! http://www.picknpull.com/locations.aspx - There are FOUR big Pick-N-Pulls in the DFW area. All are good! http://www.autosalvagedfw.com/ - Right near the Pick-N-Pull in Grand Praire, there are at least 10 salvage yards there on Jefferson. The best ones are Awesome Auto Salvage and ABC, but you can get lucky at ANY of them there. Dallas has THE BEST yards in the state (or the country, depending on who you ask!) Have fun! -Mike | |
