This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration.

    We have one 70 GS grille available for $399. It is one out of the first batch of mispainted grilles. Our customer was unhappy with it. It goes to the first person who calls in. $399 gets it shipped. Since we are having to pickup the grille anyway we are offering this up to someone who likes it painted like it is and having it go directly to you. First come, first serve. Call in and ask for me. Thanks

    How this idea sound? Go grab a cold one :beer then read my post in the Bench section ( The Heart and Soul of a Lifelong Buick Man). Send that grill along as a donation to the re-build of Jeff"s 1970 GS455 Convertible. You will have helped put some happiness into the life of one of the most deserving people in the Buick world. We are presenting him the car March 25th at a scholorship fundraiser with hundreds of people in attendance!!!! The TV show will go national this May, how"s that for advertising!!!! Shane, why not step up to the plate and hit a homerun for the Buick team!!!!! :TU: Chris Charido

    Thank You so much Shane!!!!!!!!!! :TU: It has been so hard trying to get this car finished in such a short time span. The TV show is just starting out and has a very limited budget. I personally have a very hard time asking anyone for help, but I decided to swallow My pride and reach out for Jeff as he has done his whole life for others. I really believe that Buick people are in a class of their own and I am very proud to be one. I will call you on Monday Shane, You are one class act!!!!!!!!!!! :beer Chris
