  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. 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. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Just wanted to say Hey to all you BUICK fans. I just regestered and wanted to know if any of you know much about the 66 Wildcat GS. I have one that I am restoring and would like to talk to someone else that has one.

    Hey Jeff,

    Welcome to the board. I know a little less about Mopars than I do Wildcats, but you came to the right place. Lots of guys/gals out here know the answers to you questions and will be happy to answer them.

    Go the the User CP and attach a picture of your car to your Signature so we can see it.

    welcome Jeff. you didn't settle for quality, reliability or power. Try the search button and type wildcat. There's a few guys on here with them and IMHO more Buick knowledge and great people than anywhere else on the planet.

    Trust us here, you didn't settle for anything, you took a giant leap up! When was the last time you heard of a mopar being "Fast With Class". Heck, anyone with more money than brains can own a mopar! Just ask the guys that run Barrett-Jackson. Welcome to the world of Buicks, where not only can we blow our competitions doors off, we can do it while the A/C is running!!

    Thanks for the warm welcome. I live in NW Ohio near the small town of Kalida. 30 miles W of Findlay or 60 miles SW of Toledo. I will post a picture of my Cat in a couple of weeks or so. Hope to have the motor rebuilt and back in the frame by then. Won't be much of a picture as the body is off.This is the first car I have ever restored and I really enjoy it except for having to spend the $ big time. I never realized there were so many nuts and bolts to a car but i'm loven it. Jeff
