Nice GN.All original except for intercooler hoses.Hard to find original Eagle GTs.Don't get caught in the rain with those on.Too bad for the T tops.They allow a lot more noise then non T tops.Never take them off.Killer GN though.

I don't understand the dislike of T-tops, as a matter of fact I would NOT buy one of these cars WITHOUT T's. I have an 88 Monte Carlo SS on par condition wise as this car and on a 12K mile car like mine, all original, it's still tight, no rattles, etc. with the T's. They make the car SO much more fun to drive.

For me it's just a matter of preference; I am not a t-top, sunroof or convertible guy. To each his own as they say.

Didn't the GN's have the serial number on the dash right the glove compartment? If so what year was that done?

Are you sure?Do you have a link?I'd be really surprised to see them reproduce a tire in such an odd size.
