    Well Burt, being in Minneapolis is a stroke of luck, as the owner of this board and all-around Buick god Jim Weise lives and owns Tri Shield Performance in Minneapolis (www.trishieldperf.com)

    I suggest you join the BPG asap (www.buickperformancegroup.com and we accept PayPal) and then call Jim and see if he has any info on the whereabouts of a car for you. He just might know of a hidden treasure...

    Welcome aboard!

    Welcome to the board!

    Where in the Minneapple do you live? I used to live downtown near the Metrodome and worked in West St. Paul, Brooklyn Park, and Burnsville at various times.

    Well, in any case, there's a lot of good info here. Don't be afraid to ask questions. :)

    PS- Yardley's right. By all accounts, Jim at Tri Shield Performance REALLY knows his stuff.
