Ironically the coolest car of the 80's was the Buick Gran National. And I was a porter at a Buick dealership in 87. Got to drive all of the cool cars them working there. To us the coolest cars were the 60's muscle cars. In hindsight all of those cars were pieces of shit compared to cars today. But man did we party our asses off back then.

That was a cool ass job for a teenage kid. Me and the service manager would take one of the cars for a joy ride and smoke a joint. Drag race them to the gas station. We did a lot of stupid shit but it was probably the most fun job i ever had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were freaking out because the car was sold. He just washed it and was driving it around. We took a rubber mallet and pounded it back as good as we could and drove it around. never heard a word about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anler Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Another cool thing about the 80's is this was probably the last decade without the PC bullshit. Sexual harassment and racial prejudice was still embraced. The good old days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then in 96 I bought an 89 Red GTA convertible that only had 19k on it, I didn't realize what I had until after I sold it. Both were awesome cars. I really wanted the 89 turbo TA, I actually think that was the coolest car of the 80's but never bought one. Good times.

hwytohell Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Not much performance potential in the Olds built 307 V-8 , or the Chevy 305 . The 2004r transmission was their only saving grace . The women had big hair on top and bottom. Tube tops and halter tops were a cool view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
