| Interesting mod done to remove the rear GN wnidow, by replacing it with a Monte Aero Coupe rear window and tray. It certainlty looks better than the 2+2 bubble window...YUCK!!!  | |

| Oh well I guess. the guy probably picked that car up for 500 bucks and wanted to do something different. We ALL do that and tend not to care what everyone else thinks. Its a good job and good workmanship. | |

| I remember the Internet wide uproar that that caused, I read the whole build thread and the guy did a phenomenal job with it, assuming this is the same one I am thinking of.
While I never cared for the aero coupes at all, hated the look of them actually, I LOVE the fact that the guy spent the time to build what he wanted that gm did not give him.
Bravo!
Doug

| The more I'm looking at it, the more it's growing on me, actually. Like a fungus...

I know exactly what your talking about I always HATED those back windows. On this car (maybe its the spoiler) it starts to blend. _________________ Steve 96BBB 28K 3.42 Bolt-ons 95BBB 100K 3.73 383 New DD...already broke fixt the 4L60E twice 95 Black WB4 Hole...ee...grail 96 Black WB4 No holes in this 95BBB 189K 3.08 Old DD Stolen...by Matt.

| The work required to do this is beyond many people here - mostly those complaining the loudest.

- J I was going to say something similar. The idea was well executed on a car that never came that way. Far beyond my ability. Had Buick made that car, it would be the most sought after GN I assure you. I myself liked the GP 2+2 |

| Do you think Harbor Freight has the tools needed to do a job like that? I already have a spot weld cutter. | |
