Happy belated Birthday Wishes to all three of you!! I would have posted sooner but haven't had much time to browse the site much over the past several days.

Can you attach the PDF, or post a link to it here please?

So, did anyone here go? The weather was B E A U T I F U L!! Very un-Carlisle like, I'm use to sweating and being worn out by the end of the day. Cloud cover most of the morning & early afternoon, slight breeze blowing, very low humidity. Around 2:00 PM the sun made its presence known and it warmed up a bit. I have a ton of pictures that I have to find out if I can download to my PC (if I must upload the software CD-ROM, then it won't happen soon as my CD-ROM drive is unoperable). I think I even saw Leo's white '80s El Camino there. If it was his, it sure is a beauty!!

I saw it Tuesday night (9:00 PM show). It's a long movie (2:37), and add in the previews and your there for almost 3 hours! I agree with Dodgefan, it was a really good movie. A lot of clapping at the end and many people seemed to enjoy it (much like the first one). I have to erase the second one from my memory still. I may go see it again in the next couple of weeks. I don't want to spoil anything for those who have yet to see it

Okay, now this is getting weird... another '91 has shown up in my CL area for sale: http://southjersey.craigslist.org/cto/2470447977.html A little higher mileage than I want, and the price is out of my range too... BTW, I'm going Saturday afternoon to see the white one posted above (post #7)... pray that it is in decent enough shape to make we want to buy it!

Congratulations are definitely in order, Lamar! It's hard to believe that in 15 days my daughter will be turning one (where does time go?). Is this your first child?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0402344/ I didn't realize that it was back "on". The original is one of my favorite sci-fi movies from the '70s... I even remember the TV series that was launched a year after the movie's debut. I read somewhere long ago that the supposedly 2000 remake was cancelled and Michael Bay made "The Island" based off of Logan's Run instead (however this is not stated at IMDB.com http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0399201/ )

I hope you find them, I'd love to see what the car looks like!

First there was Red Dawn and Footloose, now Mr. Mom, RoboCop, and WarGames??? http://blog.games.yahoo.com/blog/797-wargames-remake-coming-from-king-of-kong-director Has Hollywood run out of creative writers? Or is it that '80s movies are coming up on being 30 years old now and that's the magic age for remaking them???

Neighbors down the street are both in their mid-50s and drive Acuras. I love watching the man come home and park his out front of his townhouse when I'm out getting the mail... he always rubs the tire(s) up against the curb in his almost 2-year old Acura! I think the wife has taken the one mirror off entering/exiting the garage too

Well, here's the first release I'm aware of involving these '58 Chevy cabs and trailers: http://www.fairfieldcollectibles.com/p6494/100+Years+of+Chevrolet+-+Centennial+Hauler+Collection/product_info.html?ptp=nr

I always invisioned using the '91-'92 Caprice body for that, and just needed to figure out how to rework the rear end for vertical taillights. a'la the Ninety-Eight style from the previous generation.

Oddly when he brought this up, I thought, Jeez, I have not seen a '91/'92 Custom Cruiser in a while... and *poof* a White/Burgundy one appeared at PetSmart. Yeah, that happens to me every once in a while (seeing a CC when I haven't seen one in a while). I was a big fan of the all-new full-size B-body station wagons when they debutted in 1991. My favorite of the three of course was the Custom Cruiser, and I was sad to see that it was only a 2-year model. I'd prefer to have a '92 model because of the 5.7L 350 V8 engine, but this is not something that would be a daily driver so I can be flexible. I just don't want to buy a money pit!! Okay, have some questions that maybe someone can answer: 1. PA Title - anything needed in addition to the PA title to re-title it in NJ? I have never bought a car out-of-state. 2. Getting it home - I guess I will need to find a way to tow it home if I go for this. Plans would be to store it for now (don't ask me where, I haven't thought that far in advance!) and get it registered/insured at a later time. 3. Maybe this should be directed at SAmadei: Would it be worth the effort to get it registered as limited production vehicle since it is five years away from being considered "antique/classic"? That could help with insurance & registration costs. Anyone wanna go see the white one with me tonight or tomorrow night?

Well, the red one (first one posted) is no longer listed on CL and the seller is not responding to my emails. I'll consider that one "sold". I am trying to figure out if I can get to Norristown/Plymouth Meeting tonight as I hoped to yesterday. If not, I will try for tomorrow. I am interested in checking out this car and seeing how motivated the seller is on the price.

Are the pictures at this link the ones you're referring to: http://www.caranddriver.com/news/spied/10q2/2012_buick_regal_wagon-spied/gallery/2012_buick_regal_wagon_photo_54 I like the wagon version of the Regal. My wife was in Madrid, Spain two weeks ago and stopped in an Opel dealership to get me some Opel brochures. I really like the Opel Insignia Tourer (wagon) brochure the best!

I bought my copy yesterday and plan to start reading it this week.

There's also this one listed too in Norristown/Plymounth, PA: http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/cto/2430655976.html The seller emailed me some pictures: They also provided this extra info in texts: no mechanical issues, leather on driver seat is peeling, inside is clean and not beat up/dirty, a/c needs to be recharged, no accidents, body has minor dents but no chips/cracking paint/rust, runs good but upgraded to a new car and is motivated to sell

I know gm4life would be happy with this news So, anyone close by this dealership to get some pictures for us C&G fans? I wonder if this dealership is on the blacklist now, or if someone's head inside of GM will roll for this?

Yeah, a $1,000 seems like quite a deal for the type of car it is I just hope it's in really good condition with no major frame rust. What is Oldsmobile-specific? I know the rims, steering wheel, hood/grille are. What else?

I submit these for approval: http://www.otib.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/default/praying%20smiley.gif http://www.otib.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/default/rofl2br.gif http://www.otib.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/default/dunno.gif http://www.otib.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/default/snack.gif

While attending the All-GM Nationals show in Carlisle, PA this past Saturday, I fell in love with something I've always had a soft spot for - a 1992 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser station wagon (this one was not for sale). However, a quick look on Craigslist today brought me to this 1991 model: http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/cto/2457511935.html So Custom Cruiser experts, I ask for your knowledge, advice, insight, opinion on this '91. I am very tempted... On the other hand, the step-son wants to go check this 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue (GX?) out for his daily driver: http://southjersey.craigslist.org/ctd/2459492470.html So I ask the Intrigue/W-body experts for your knowledge, advice, insight, opinion on this one for sale. Anything to pay attention to in particular?

What should the design be based on this go-round? I for one loved the look of the HHR, but my wife and plenty of our friends thought it was ugly. Would you try to modernize the '49 Suburban-inspired design? Would you use the Chevy Orlando? Would a '55 Suburban be the next influence?
