They're good cars for stock shows. If you want to build anything on it, I would shorten the frame and hot glue a good bumper on it

I have the exact same cruise control hookup on my 91 New Yorker, I'm using it for a hand throttle too.

Mechanic's wire tied to a wooden handle of the cruise cable for my 94 Regal. Only did it because my regular throttle cable is frayed and I live in no man's land, an hour away from the nearest parts yard. May or may not make it there before the next derby.

I have a Pontiac I'm running next year just like this so I'll be keeping close tabs on your thread!
Do these 3800 go into limp mode like the 3.1's?

Im interested to see how your truck packs. I want to do something for mine. I ran a Celebrity and the thing went straight to the ground

A lot of great pictures. Might keep this one around as a permanent H body thread if you don't mind.

There is a long list of cars that fall onto similar platforms. Some of them (such as you Delta) come up fairly often. So, it is done.

The verdict : h bodies are worth the build for sure. Back ends are like a w body but the front sucks, ESP if you don't rebolt ALL the sub frame bolts. Would I build another ? If you can get it bought right, yes ! The back ends are like a W body but front ends suck?....soooo both ends suck? lol |
