[QUOTE=dcalde78;17765388]It has no badges at all.[/QUOTE]
They don't have GT-T badges, although you can buy them as aftermarket parts.
We got the truck back today after being "repaired", it's fucking terrible. I swear the drivetrain is binding or something because the car feels half as powerful as it did before, and it makes a clunk noise every now and then. Suspension and steering is complete bullshit, it was painted with spraypaint and the rear quaterpanels were welded on. They also painted over all the seals and plastic, so they painted over them again with black paint and got it all over the windows.
This thread needs more pictures!

Those Caddys have suspensions made of pillows and sponges
It's looks like new, I like it.
My dad and I drove from Edmonton to Vancouver in it (14 hours on the road), it ran great. Got 18 MPG which is pretty good considering it weighs 4,100 pounds and hasn't had any sort of tune-up since 1986.
Only problem is it needs a new heater core. Anyone know how hard those are to replace? Removal of the dash isn't required, its all done under the hood.

It must feel like a moving waterbed knowing how soft the suspension on those are.
Get seasick on the road :c00l:

OK we all agree the Cadillac M_u_d posted is awesome, but stop quoting the wall of pictures dammit :argh:
For fucks sake, stop quoting the god damn pictures of the fucking caddy, jesus christ
Thanks for the comments guys, it's such a fun car to drive. It actually feels like you're driving a ship, because you can actually see the corners of the hood (it doesn't slope down like newer cars for aerodynamics) and there's little indicator lights on the corners. I could go on for pages about all the cool shit it has, and mostly everything still works!
Interior view plox.

Holy fuck. Pretty advanced electronics in there for cars of the time i guess.

Indeed. Power seats, heated mirrors, power windows, locks, antenna (but it's broken, I never listen to FM anyway) power trunk release and pull-down.
Also, because the suspension is so soft, the back end sits really low if you put 3 people in the back. Whenever the back starts sagging, an air compressor comes on and fills the rear air shocks so it remains at the correct height. Oh and the headlights come on automatically when it gets dark.

THAT. That interior is jaw dropping! The craftmanship is nothing like I expected from an American car!
That is one of the nicest cars I've ever seen, inside and out.
Real wood... in a car. SO cool.

Dude, the roof is leather covered, and you're drolling at the wood interior??
Yes, because why would you even need a leather covering to a roof?
Solid American walnut panels, mmmm.
Delicious walnut...
is it just me, or is that car missing a shifter? :V
[QUOTE=Psygo;17783550]is it just me, or is that car missing a shifter? :V[/QUOTE]
I guess it's automatic, and the shifter is at the steering wheel.
