67impss

98 that's how I lost my 91 Elite also. I fought with their Insurance for almost 3mo & lost out bad only got $2175 & it was mint just put new tires,struts,brakes all round plus starter& alt..Once they gave me their offer I had 24hrs. to turn in the rental the car was mint. That's been the casewith 3 cars now. I did make out with the Lumina APV twice the 20k mi later drove to the yard & got another $200 very lucky with that van. CSpec I'm so happy thatyour OK but do go to get checked out or you loose your rights... just in case

Yeah that's some nice iron the B coupe & wagon hurt & the 'vette had better have been traded @ a Mopar dealer cause poor condition ones go for at least 6k around here.

Roger here's a link to what was a great B & D body forum though they had a server crash & lost it all this month they're rebuilding. It' very active though.

Can't do that with a throw away unibody / but after watching the youtube c4c vids that is just what the Gov wants destroying perfectly good engines and such cars worth5-10k crushed for $4500 & less Maybe those Toyo rusted frames got trashed

Yep the blk 'maro , 'vair, moss grn. 67 Imp SS, blk 58, '65? Belair... Thanks Ted always grt. pix

I'm believing that theory too and when your rival sister division made it good you could use it till you made something better.

Make sure to rule out the ground circuit they are most likely the prob

I was thinking Magnum

Know anything about it though? Also that thing can't be for Europe rt.? It was shown in the States & looks too big for most all of the Continent.

Hard for the public to decide if they want manual trans if none are made a catch 22. As they market fuel sippers the public will learn to row the boat an we'll gain converts to help with the cause(I pray)

Has anyone seen this Quatraporte concept? http://www.cwwcardesign.com/cars/maseratiquattroporte.html I see a RoadMaster in this not that GM would build it but...

Similar though without the brushes. If you get a soldering gun close to a florescent tube it will glow also

From what I read of both you guys posts I think Reg found a loose worn example you may look at a few to make your mind up then at least you will satisfy your ? about the 3.0 L

Where's the restaurant in Chilli? I hunt Tar Hollow for the last 25 yrs.

PCLinuxOS 2009 ROCKS!

Though not a noob nore a pure techie I prefer PC's with Linux though not a command line user it works 4 me

Ditto I thought it was a puter problem I run PCLinuxOS & some times does strange things like on GM.com pix cover up links. Go figure, glad it's not just me

Wish ya luck on that one My brother-inlaw had what he called a '65 & 1/2 notch bck 289 hi po 3spd manual that he kept till it rusted away to the yard He was quite sad trying not to let it show, he had bought it at the time he married my big sis. When I was working @ Main Auto Parts machine shop I rebuilt the top end and he let me drive it was 17 & had driven many muscle cars by then but he sat rt seat, he loved that car. Best wishes Chris I feel for ya at least mine is in sight.

I agree in all of your posts I add that though I still have my '67 Imp I think I could imagine at his feelings of loss in that my SS hasn't been titled since '81. When I can get my $ together & get it road worthy I know that I'll have the same feelings of elation he has now. Every once in a while I go to the garage & I'm 16 again

Vacation

Seems to be a trend too bad Toyo couldn't follow suit :twocents:

This is the vibe I was getting one of my fav wagons I will have one yet. I had the '65 Rambler Classic 660 Cross Country but was faster than the 230 I6 Chevy http://www.chevelles.com/wagons/wheelsup.jpg

I call B/S on about half of these so called Benz 1st's ast your post almost reads from MB web site. Also if the US Gov. & auto industry had not done the leg work for the Mighty MB they wouldn't have bettered the US systems. The US had manual 3pt. belts in '68. Crumple zones, stability control, and brake assist look to be true MB innovation though. Modern ABS Chrysler, together with the Bendix Corporation, introduced a true computerized three-channel all-wheel antilock brake system called "Sure Brake" on the 1971 Imperial.[3] It was available for several years thereafter, functioned as intended, and proved reliable. General Motors introduced the "Trackmaster" rear-wheel (only) ABS as an option on their Rear-wheel drive Cadillac models in 1971.[4][5] In 1975, Robert Bosch took over a European company called Teldix (contraction of Telefunken and Bendix) and all the patents registered by this joint-venture and took advantage out of this acquisition to build the base of the system introduced on the market some years later. The German firms Bosch and Mercedes-Benz had been co-developing anti-lock braking technology since the 1970s, and introduced the first completely electronic 4-wheel multi-channel ABS system in trucks and the Mercedes-Benz S-Class in 1978. The Honda NSX was the first to mass produced automobile with the modern 4-channel ABS system sold in the United States and Japan, it applies individual brake pressure to each of the four wheels. In addition, ABS is now gaining popularity on Heavy-duty trucks. Traction control The predecessor of modern electronic traction control systems can be found in high-torque, high-power rear-wheel drive cars as a limited slip differential.[citation needed] Limited slip differentials are a purely mechanical system that transfer a relatively small amount of power to the non-slipping wheel, it still allows some wheel spin to occur. In 1971 the Buick division of GM introduced MaxTrac, which used an early computer system to detect rear wheel spin and modulate engine power to those wheels to provide the most traction. A Buick-exclusive at the time, it was an option on all full-size models, including the Riviera, Estate Wagon, Electra 225, Centurion, and popular LeSabre family sedan. Cadillac also introduced the ill fated Traction Monitoring System (TMS) in 1979 on the redesigned Eldorado. It was criticized for its slow reaction time and extremely high failure rate. Stability control = BMW 1st http://www.safetyresearch.net/Library/SRS028.htm

GM used to do their own car shows for the employees & retirees thats where i saw it first in '73 big bumper(5mph) in frt. , little bumper (2.5 mph) in back. IT was a big display the only elevated car cause the air bag was built here at Inland.

Pontiac Ventura II had Air bag restraint optional in '73 before Caddy it was the Industries first.
