Jesse86T · 07-23-2004, 10:32 AM

Good day Buick lads I got a buddy who's bringing out his 87 GN but he's lookin for GN rims or someone to beable to refinish them..back to the stock look.

Also I seem to be having a commen proplem every time I go on a tour [ mostly out in the west end of Ottawa]

Sounds like Mike has been playing out that way getting noticed.

Good man Mike!

I just had my '84 aluminum rims (same as later T-types) redone and they are immaculate.

Talk to Mike Dubois at Turpin to see if they can do the same for the chrome '87s. He sent mine out to a firm in Montreal.

Geoff,

Sorry to get you into trouble like that. We have been racing alot at the Ottodrome and the local kids show up, different bunch everytime it seems. So they may get the white cars mixed up. Just tell them street racing is dangerous and that we only do it in approved, safe facilities........or at least when there aren't any cops or alot of people around......

I guess the TR/GNs are getting a reputation, so if that is the case, I ask that all of you be prepared at all times.

The last thing we need is for some kid with an import saying he can beat a Grand National.....not that it would ever happen, but ya never know......

But. I have to be nice to him also as he's my wifes boss..

I know my reply is late, but if the job has not been done, try P. Jacques. They specialise in wheel & mag restoration. They do a fantastic job. They have decent prices too.
