    73 Grand Am 400 4 speed

    That 73 front end is beautiful. Split grill. 73 bumpers that are indestructible. Surf board hood shape. What's so ugly? They sold a ton of 73-77 grand prix. The square lamps are ugly.

    73 Grand Am 400 4 speed

    It's all original except for the missing 4 speed. It runs and has a turbo 400 installed. Came with both consoles.

    Rear Axles, What Changed in 1977 ?

    Chevy downsized everything in 1978. Monte Carlo become junk. Bean counters started sharing parts everywhere. The end of GM as we knew them..sad

    78 K5 Gas Mileage

    I could kick myself...when I was younger I'd throw away the stock air cleaner and bolt on a chrome open element. Loved flipping the lid on the stock air cleaner and hear the fuel go bye bye! :D:D:eek:

    What you reckon it's worth? 76 GMC Sprint

    Elcamino has a boxed frame..like a pickup. Super strong. Had another 73 with a 454 and turbo 400. Amazed my friends pulling trees from the ground..lmfao

    The chrome plating today is junk. The EPA has strict rules. Original 73-77 bumpers are 50 years old and most still look good. GM spent millions on designing those 5 mph bumpers..were made to outlast the cars..which they have!

    $15,000 gets you a pretty nice car at barret Jackson. I paid $1200 for my 73 with blown engine. The 73-77 bumpers are everywhere..they are indestructible. Whoever did the chrome plating..did a fantastic job. The bumpers are still shining brightly as the rest of the car is Swiss cheese. Look harder.

    Oil technology is the reason engines now last 200k,300k etc. Why spend $30,$40,$50 k on a vehicle and protect it with cheap oil? Diesel oil is a good alternative for older engines..higher zinc content.

    Any recomendations front suspension?

    Just replace with stock moog suspension components. Shocks can be upgraded as shock technology has come a long way. GM had great engineering at the time. I'm not a fan of these guys trying to reinvent the wheel..when it comes to suspension components.
