I Got my little ‘Bird out of winter storage today and went for a 40-ish mile cruise through the countryside. She is ever so close to turning over 57,000 miles. The heater worked excellently on this cold, gray winter’s day!
And, now that I got the radio fixed (with a new amp), I got an FM transmitter so I could stream my ‘80s country playlist from Spotify. It sounds terrible compared to the Bose system in my 6, but it adds to the nostalgic effect of the car.

Thanks, guys! It was garage kept its entire life and I’m continuing that tradition. It has some fine scratches and swirl marks but I’m planning on having it fully detailed once the weather clears and that ought to fix those minor issues.

Beautiful! Old front drive GM’s are excellent. Quirky character, dead solid reliability, plenty of platform interchange, plentiful in the boneyards and dirt cheap to keep locomoting. I daily a ‘93 Buick Gran Sport I bought off of the original owner.
Another fun thing is the availability of OEM gofast parts and swaps. Quad 4's, L67's, Getrag 5spd’s, ect ect.
