  1. But at the right cheap price, you could gut it, clean it and put in the engine, electrical and inside you desire and have a killer auto. What does Olds mean by Dont Troll?????
  2. I think it's basically because GM doesn't want to do it; there appears to be no long-term drive except to cater to the ATS/CTS/Escalade crowd... It's a management option to go the way they've gone at it for the last 10 years, but an option without any major opportunity for the Cadillac brand to really restablish itself as a world-class reference. The fact is till they get the ATS and CTS best in class why would anyone pony up big money on a LTS? BMW was built pretty much from the 3 series up. They earned a rep on the lower priced cars and then expeanded it and moved the customers up that could afford it. Today Cadillac has the ATS almost there with only a need for some better engines. The new CTS also should prove to be class leading or right at that point. Once the public gets a good feel for these cars the LTS will be ready to be set upon the market. People will risk $40K on an ATS to see how they like it but few will risk $70-100K on a LTS only to find it not of their liking. Please them with the ATS and CTS beyond the others in the market and they will be willing to take the plung on the LTS. The key though is it much not just be a expensive and more expensive Super Sport sedan. I would agree with this, have GM spending money on building the worlds best ATS/CTS/SRX/Escalade in all versions. 4dr, 2dr, convertible, etc. In 3-5 years you can build an LTS.
  3. Reason to go Fuel Injected.
  4. Found a comment that the Engine and tranny went into a 78 T/A. Any new pictures or video on this and is it the truth?
  5. Come on Puke it up if you know what else is going on with the car.
  6. Your right, GM's version of a ZOOM, ZOOM, ZOOM car that actually beats Mazda.
  7. Ugly little puke! But then as an AWD appliance it gets the job done so for the price, one cannot go wrong.
  8. Here is my house, I just had a new driveway put in. Been updating the house for the last 10 years and all that is left to do is finish the laundry room. 1600 Square foot house, 3 bedrooms, 1 bath, 1 office, living room, family room, quarter acre lot. Driveway is 40 feet wide by 65 feet long and that is not including the side slab. I love it, all oak and modern inside. Drive way can support Semi's, I had them use commercial grade rebar in 1 foot square connections points 6" thick. As my parents say, overkill but then I will never have to worry about it wearing out in my life time.
  9. Yet the house on this thread is gastly and needs to be gutted and updated with a proper inside and color scheme. Otherwise, replace it with something better. Modern can transend time if done properly. ^ This is my house... Very nice, now this house unlike the one at the start of this thread shows to me quality and character and I admit I have not even seen the inside yet. Some houses just say old and that is what the house at the start of the thread says to me.
  10. You know I have it scheduled tomorrow. Vogue 19" tires. Chrome stick on trim and trunk luggage rack. NOT. :rofl:
  11. ghastly, sterile, character free, mcmansions! Too funny, but guess depending on where you grow up, history is for the history books and the NorthWest tends to go modern and new.
  12. wow that is an amazing sad end to an awesome car. Talk about rusting out big time.
  13. +1 :rofl:
  14. Yes with the Genie out of the bottle, you had to figure they have a few billion set aside to pay for this. Now is the time for lawyers to make a killing in fees. One does have to wonder how this will affect both companies over the short term and long term. Could one of these companies go away or at least get greatly reduced in size?
  15. I agree that he is a legend to have saved all this history.
  16. Where??????
  17. feather dusters
  18. LOL, This reminds me of the movie The Last Chase 1981. The cop cars were all electric, people could not go on road trips any longer and you were forced by the totalitarian central government to only live the dictated way. Race to Freedom California for free driving. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082642/maindetails In a future United States, the only transport available to an individual is public transportation. Predicated on an assertion that "the oil has run out", an increasingly totalitarian central government has ordered all personal vehicles be impounded by law. One man, a former race car driver, yearns again for his ability to choose his own roads and destiny. He reassembles his race car hidden from confiscation, and sets out for "Free California" which has broken away from the new regime, aided by a young technically savvy teen who feels alienated from this "social" society. Agents of the new government must stop this man at any cost to destroy the symbology he represents, and the instability that such a desire for personal autonomy could mean to the society. An old Korean War veteran and his F-86 Sabre jet are called into service to chase down this dangerous man... Written by AGC
  19. That is what you call the Rocky Mountains to a Ricered Ride that has been lowered to Cig pack height.
  20. Remember, we no longer have French Fries, they are Freedom Fries. So that would not be a Vrench Curve but a Freedom Curve which means only american metal!

  22. Good catch, you are right it does look like the drivers side headlight bezel.
  23. Dowry
  24. Also the shortage of quality used cars will force many to buy new, so we will see many new auto's with cleaner roads, less dropped oil. That is the bright side, emissions and amount of safer auto's on the road.
