Today I became the proud father of a baby goat. :cheers
Quicksilver/ Black is her name
Weighing in at M6
Height 18”

arty:

The only bad thing of the day is she won’t be coming home with me today she needs to get dressed up in a pretty SAP outfit.

I want to thank everyone on this forum with all the data that I needed to get this transaction done.

My first Goat was a 1965 Black 389 Blue printed to the hilt.

So I have come full circle.

Again thanks for all the help and I’m sure I’ll be calling on you all again.

:seeya:

We both got our new goats today. My Brazen metallic orange, M6 w/ 18" came home. It get parked in the garage next to my 67. Ain't nothin' better than having to generations of muscle.

Congrats on the new goat. Must feel good to own two generations of goats. I know it's fun to race two generations of muscle did it recently and it was awesome, but then again it was also my first race in the goat, so it was an adrenaline rush anyway.

went to the dealer today to bring the baby home...yayayyayayya

check all the good stuff that I was told to check for on this and other formus and sure enough I found the tire pressure at 65 psi reset them to the factor recommendations.


so I figure the tech must have missed the shipping blocks in the shock so I got down to take a look see and I saw my baby was dripping oil....I cried...

so I spent the day in the repair shop to find the port plug was stripped or cross threaded and could not get it fixed until 06-07-2006.

the dealer has been great. gave me a loaner and I should pick it up today..if all goes well....

thanks again for the info..members....

 

[Clueless]

That's a big bummer I'm sure you were excited to bring home your baby goat, just to find out it has a leak

At least your dealer is cool about it. What type of loaner did they give you?

 

[65 GTO 06]

Answer to Clueless: 06 Buick Lucerne CXS..Very nice car....

on to the important stuff...

I got my goat home and all is well.
been out all night driving, checking thing and the like and all is well ...'

Just as I figured it would be..
Hope this feeling never goes away...yayayayayayaya :cheers :willy:

Thanks everybody.. Pictures to follow......

[65 GTO 06]

1 week in now and I have another oil leak.. this time it around the shock tower.

so I will bring the car to the dealer and get another loaner untill the leak is fixed...

It seem so far I have found most of the issues stated in this forum for new cars

I had hoped I was one of the few that had no issues..

it's been a fun week I hope this is nothing serious..
I have my road trip at the end of the week....

 

[65 GTO 06]

word from the dealer..
Right side strut need to be replaced
asked if both could be he said he could not replace the other because it is not failing...

 

[TexasAggie]

Right side strut need to be replaced

How is that related to an oil leak? Or does he mean oil from the strut??:confused

 

[65 GTO 06]
