i was at the store and i went in , got my **** and went back to my car. i opened the door and got in and when i went to close the door it wouldn't shut. i went home and to compare the , what i thought was fine, passenger door to the driver door and when i opened it and tried to shut it it would shut, just like the driver door .


so did this ever happen to anybody elses thirdgen, or am i just a dumbass with a wierd problem.

 

umm....thats wierd.....look at the latch on the door where it hits the striker bolt see if its down or if there is a gap

 

yeah, the is some thick plastic thing thats inside the door and is supposed to be there ( or at least looks like it) and it blocks the striker bolt from entering the door .

 

Sounds like a major problem.
I think you should sell it.
Cheap.
To me.
haha.

 

i am selling it, funny you asked?

 

The crappy v6, or the GTA?

 

hey, first off the v6 isn't that crappy okay.

and yes its the v6 not the GTA i had to drive 5 hours and back to get, shiet.

 

I know, I used to have one.
I'll pass.
5 hours in a GTA = awesome.

 

yeah i know.

BUT LETS STAY FOCUSED. i cant even drive my car right now and i just dropped the GTA off at the shop for paitn an hour before this happen.
this is some bull****.

 

I dont know if this is your problem, but a few chevys that me and some friends have owned have all seemed to have a prob simular to this. The lever that holds the door shut sometimes falls down when it is open causing it not to close. Try pulling the handel that opens the door then feeling down there for the lever and try to push it up.


Gl man.

 

Me too, nd sometimes they get cunked up so a lottle bit of cleaning and lubing and it's fixed.

 

THANK YOU NECRO.
i lifted the handle and used a screwdriver moved the little lever and it worked.

i just dont get how it happed in the first place. all i did was oped both doors and then they just got cluster ****ed, but at least its fixed.

 

happened to me on my 91. lithium grease does the tick.

 

Great, problem solved.
SO what color is the GTA being painted, back in black?
Are they doing anything else special to it, which paintjob?

 

of course its goin to be black, thats primarily why i got it, i dont see alot of black birds around here.

i took off the old wing which was totally gone and used the flat base bird wing form my 92 to go on the car, i have to fill in the 5 holes and drill 4 new ones, but i am paying for the body man to do it. i am getting what they call "hooked up" becuase i had a good business relation witht he owner and manager there and am paying significantly less oh hells yes)when its done it will look very clean and as it should with 65,000 miles. its a one stage but thats becuase i am getting it done for like 80 % off a regular ticket (but shhh)
i dont know how to get pics up of my bird and gta but the one stage looks pretty damn sweet for the price you pay.

so how do you post pics anyway?

 

80% off huh?
So what is that, like $150? haha.

Look below where you type a response for the Additional Options.
"Manage Attachments"
Self-explanatory from there, I hope.

I'd like to get a 2-stage $3,000 paint job for 80% off, $600, how sweet would that be.

 

okay these are the pics of the bird with a one stage, pretty damn good lookin i think.

and here are the only three pics i have of the GTA pre-paint.

 

the other two gta pics, i i think i will stick these 20 irocs on the gta after i gets painted for a while, i think they will look good, and i will probably smake the rest of whats left that are on the black gta rims.

 

Yeah, from afar the 6 looks very good.
I'm sure the 1-stage will do my Supra justice.
Too bad you don't work there anymore, I wanted a hook-up.

Black GTA's have always been my 2nd fav.
As for the 20" rims, not so much.

 

the rims are not permanent, its just that they have good tires and i want to deep clean the gta wheels, or i might just have them tatally refurbished from a guy i know through the shop. i was going to put them on my 6 to help it sell but i know i would never used the rims that are on the 6 now, i like thme but not on a 350 way too skinny.

yeah you should have come earlier and i could have thorne you some money off and **** like that to make it the cheapest possible, but i just cant work there right now, i might go back later after the season but am still contimplating it.

 

20" ? Comon now.

 

 

maybe he wants to be in Donk box & bubble

 

 

its not like they are going to be on there for long just until i sell them and get new tires for the gta rims. no i dont think a third gen should have 20's but i wont hurt for now since i can use them.
