  1. Hi guys!! My seat adjuster finally took a pooh on me. The motors are spinning but no movement. I haven't taken it apart yet because my son still drives it to work everyday. I've been hunting around the interwebs and I've read that 87 adjusters are different than the others, but I've also read that is only true on the Buick. It is buckets of course which also matters. Any ideas? I really would like to just have an entire adjuster assembly, even new if possible. I'm not afraid to spend some money on this particular part as my new husband is 6'7" and can't drive it until we get this fixed. Secondly, it is time to replace the lock actuators and while I'm there, the weak window motors but I'm not touching those panels until I find some replacement pull strap covers as in the past I've always broken at least one. I found two private listings for one each on ebay but I would like a more reliable, plentiful source if possible. Any ideas there? As you probably know, G-body parts, especially interior are very scarce, even moreso on the Olds vs. Monte SS and GN. Soon enough my baby boy will get a different car and I will have my girl back and I can begin the interior repairs that she needs but I'm afriad my options may be very limited. G-body parts.com has some of it but not a lot and not those covers and they are pricey!!
  2. Ok, thanks guys. I'm gonna see if he's made any leeway. He was breaking the new parts putting them back in as well. There must be some procedure they aren't doing. Thanks a bunch for the help.
  3. Hey thanks for the warm welcome. I love the color too. I'm working on pics. I only have a few bad ones from my phone. It is such a fun little car.
  4. Hey guys, I'm back!! Got a tech question. One of my local shops is getting their butt kicked by this Buick. I haven't seen it mind you, I'm passing on second hand information. He says the control arm shafts thread through the frame and they are having a monster of a time getting them in and out. He asked if there was a special tool or a procedure to do this. Any suggestions?

  6. LOL ok, I figured but couldn't find it when I searched.
  7. Check this out!! Hopefully nobody posted this already, many of you have probably seen it already. I must admit, despite my car knowledge I was still shocked by the results.
  8. WOW!! I pay $150/month for internet and TV. No landline and still have a $150 cell bill.
  9. Yeah Olds is winning!! LOL Have loved them since I was a little girl, second would be Pontiac. Mom's a big Pontiac fanatic and third would Cadillac. Never really ha a soft spot for Chevrolet until I started working for them. Always liked BOPC for their uniqueness and styling.
  10. I have a very excited 17 year old boy. I think he's gonna make his girl shine like a diamond in a goats ass. LOL
  11. I'll get some of the Olds, but it'll be close. Can't do it till Saturday so I have sunlight. Have to borrow a decent camera. Mine sucks. LOL
  12. I couldn't back on last night at home. RAWR!! LOL How is everybody? It is fun isn't it? HEHE
  13. Hey guys!! I'm back. Haven't checked in in a while. The site looks great!! Found a few of you on Facebook. I've become a bit of a FB junkie I'm afraid. LOL Still got the Olds.
  14. Ok, here's the update. Despite my being a total computer geek, when I discovered the damage the morning after the lightning, I tried to get the computer he had to work, I changed the video card and still nothing. Well, the tower got here yesterday and so this evening I decided to try his old tower on the ancient ass CRT he is using while we wait for his monitor to get here, of course it never occured to me to try that monitor the morning after the lightning. Turns out, the old monitor is for sure toast, but it was the video card on the old tower. I put his old video card in his old tower and hooked up the CRT and his old tower is totally fine. Sooooo, I spent $1650 on a tower I didn't need. LMAO!!! Um, yeah. So, somebody come kick my ass for not trying a different monitor, even my f@cking TV has a VGA port on it for the love of God, um kay!! Oh well, I have a wicked back up tower that I don't need. HEHE

  16. I did it!! Cause I wuv you guys so much!! LOL
  17. Ok, so lightning struck the house and blew a bunch of $h! up. Ok, now after the idiot moved out, I moved kiddos computer into the living room so we could be together more, but didn't hook up the surge strip, stupid I know. Well, it blew up. I thought the the monitor was good cause it powered up and the bulb was good and the 7.1 speakers made noise when I was unhooking them so I assumed they survived. I had no way to test the speakers because of the 7.1, they have 4 cables to plug into the sound card and the monitor is DVI, and my lappy doesn't have DVI. So anyway, I made a insurance claim for the stuff that was toast. Got the check and ordered him a Dell XP630, Intel Q9550 Quad Core, with 8 GB memeory and dualing SLI Nvidia 512mb video cards with a Terabyte (sp?) hard drive with is actually 2 500 gb RAID drives. It's a badass needless to say. Well, it arrived today only to find that monitor and 7.1 speakers are in fact toast. I'm going to call insurance tomorrow and try to get more money. I have already ordered a 24" widescreen to replace his 20" widescreen. He called his idiot father to see if he could use the speaker I gave him when he moved out since he doesn't have his computer hooked up or internet. His response, was "why should I give up my speakers because you didn't use a surge strip". Now, I went nuclear, and a nasty screaming match between me and the idiot ensued. So, am I wrong to think that his dad was a DICK?!!! Was that response really necessary? It couldn't have been, "sure you can borrow them until you get new ones"? And then continued to slam me for not using a surge strip and not claiming them all even though I thought they were good. I'm a little drunk now and still really, really pissed off. What do you think? His speaker set is $250, so I'd like to get the insurance money before I buy speakers, I already dropped $350 on a monitor tonight.
  18. If its a 2 door W-body, look for it on ebay or something, they're like $250 or something stupid from GM. It's totally awful. Should be an easy replacement.
