Knightmare...over??

[Knightmare]

Hey everyone, just dawned on me that I haven't made a members rides post yet(that I can recall) so I figured I would make one. I have not been on this name very long, but I was here previously under a different name that I cannot remember. Without further ado...I present the history of Knightmare.....
My First ever GP...a 97 GT....
When I first got it home...


When I had put some appearance work into it....







This is how it ended........





Ins company totaled it...

GP #2:

a 1998 GTP:




Ended with a bad transmission and frustration...car had many "little issues" as well...sunroof did not work..sunroof leaked...had a bad cowl leak that left water on my floor boards every time it rained...my transmission went out one night...drove up to LKQ autoparts in PA picked up a used one...got it back here only to realize that the electronic connector was busted and put back in to look as though it was not broken....I got tired of dealing with the headache...sold it...bad tranny and all...

GP #3....another 97 GT...got it for a steal...thanks to people who did not know anything about their car apparently

Before I sold the GTP...I stumbled across a "1997 Grand Prix GTP" that was not running....they wanted 1100 for it....

Thinking that maybe I could pick this up and yank the transmission out...I went to look at it...
Found out that it was not in fact a GTP..and that one day..the car "just shut off" and would not run again..talked them down to 700..
Got it home and found out it had a bad sending unit..so they ran it out of gas...got gas in it and it ran like a champ...
dirty..dirty:



Cleaned up:



This car...well the only reason I don't have it is because I was stupid..I'll leave it at that lol...

ok you gotta explain what happened to gp 1

Ok..it's a real quick story at its basic level..

lack of sleep lol...I fell asleep behind the wheel on my way to work.

Nice collection of GPs there Knightmare. Projectors and my SD Hood will look great on your car. In the meantime slap some tint on that thing!

[hockeybawler]

What did you hit that made it end up looking like that?! Give us the details!

I flipped it sir...when I came to..I was half on and half off the road...all I could do was hold on lol.

LOL..I intend to sir..it had tint when I bought it, but I had to remove the tint from the front in order to be legal in Delaware ...Delaware tint laws suck lol

Nice thread and getting a car for $700 and all it need was gas is too funny.

Okokok... Can't leave us hanging... What happened to the last, lost GP? No way you can put it out there and then leave us in suspense! There's a million heartbreaks with these cars, lol, yours is then just another face in the crowd

I am assuming that you are referring to the one I got for 700? If so, I was dumb...having a hard time financially thanks to a bunch of bad decisions..took out a title loan that I could not afford to pay back...I'd imagine that the car is still running....damn shame I was so stupid at that point in life....buttttt...if I was not..I probably would not have my GTP..so in the end, all is well haha.

[Knightmare]

Here is another update on my GTP...projectors!

[Knightmare]

Well....time is coming to make some strides in the GTPs appearance.....tax money is coming in....sd hood...possibly sd air dam...and a paint job at the very LEAST...needless to say I am excited lol

Don't waste money on the air dam...crappy fitment and gap issues kill it.

SD wing/hood/paint, sure.

Find some roof rails as well...that'll help tons.

[REDCRAPGP]

Personally not a fan of the SE lip on this generation makes the car a bit to aggressive and then the rest of the car lacks. I vote new hood, roof rails

I dont think i am going to get the sd wing..i have a 40th spoiler on her already that i love lol....fitment and draggin/scraping were my biggest concern and thats a lot of money for that lil piece by the time all is said and done

Cool, so new Hood and Roof Rails.

Nice lights, and hahaha so the original owner of your 3rd GP just forgot to put gas in it. LMFAO, thats like the first thing i would check to see why it does not run. Nice clean steal though bro.

Get an intake or make your own and let that blower scream.

Oh ya i dont think they did not know a dam thing, and o my bad its a GT i thought you said GTP. You should pass by them one day and say hi and showing the car running so well. LOL but i think it would be too mean.
