    I know what I would do.

    Mike i think the car is coming along really really nice. Just a quick question what paint did you use on the exhaust manifolds.

    And I got it home today! Drove to Coeur D' Alene then 450 miles home at better than 20 MPG. My daughter wanted to ride in dads "hot rod" instead of the truck.
    I hope you have your car back soon. Felt bad taking your last Buick from you!

    I hope this looks as good to you as it does in person! 2.5 inch mandrel bent with an X pipe and Stainless Steel Magnaflow Mufflers !!

    Thank you Hogan's Muffler and Brake........................................Oh yea maybe a 1/2 dozen others too........:TU: Jamie you have made a serious impact on this board and the Buick Community. These people (with my help :Dou: ) got together and paid to have the exhaust put on your car. This is what being a part of a community is all about. It makes me almost choke up when I received so many PMs about helping you out a little. This is not charity, this is a very small gift from those who have respect for you and what you have been to us in the Buick Community. I know you wanted nothing, but you know the old saying...."Its better to ask for forgiveness, rather than ask for permission." Those donor people know who they are and they can ID themselves if they wish. I for one am sworn to secrecy as to their identities:Smarty: Enjoy!
