So as some of you may know, they love affair with my 94 SSEi came to a tragic end in Gresham, OR on my way to WCBF 09. The tranny let go at 5 am and it just wasn't cost effective to fix her, nor did I have the money on the spot. I was lucky to still have my 92 GP to fall back on but it didn't help that I still yearned for L67 power. I vowed to get either another black SSEi (00+ would be nice, I drove BoiseGTP's back to Boise, nice! ) or a black Regal GS. Although a nice black 00 Ei popped up on the local Craigslist, 5k wasn't in the cards so I let it go. A week passed and the beautiful 99 Regal GS came available for 2500. I convinced the wife to "go take a look" and fell in love. She's load to the hilt with full power, heated seats, performance shift, sunroof, practically everything and well kept. 155k.

Thanks guys, I really wanted a Bonnie but it was 5k! The GS is just as nice at half the price. One of the local guys said that I could put 500lbs in the trunk and pretend it's a Bonnie!

Wow! That is a sharp Buick GS -I have always loved the way those wheels, when chromed, really set the cars off, especially a black GS.
P.S. Do I smell a intake of some sort or a u-bend delete as the first mod?

Tell him you will, next year when you pack all your camping gear for WCBF '10
Wait a minute, I had to haul that 500 pounds back to Idaho last time. No extra waight Ray. I haven't had a ride in Rays car yet but I've seen and I like it. Nice find Ray.
Mods will come in time, I had a drop in panel from Betty so I guess she's modded now, plus a mild tune. U-bend is next on the list, funds permitting. I'll report the track results from this Friday's Club Challenge Racing.

Did we pretend your Bonnie was a Suburban then Keven?
Were is that huge banner from thats over your garage?
That was at a local mod day, it belonged to the local Fiero dude Paul who did the L67 swap.
