New 2004 GT2 Owner

[sxrsil3nt]

Good evening!

Let's begin by saying that my name is Kyle and I'm 18 and I'm from Ontario, Canada.

As part of my high school graduation, my parents decided to give me "what's left" of our 2004 Grand Prix GT2. It has approximately 217,000 km's (135,000miles). The body is still amazing (no rust) despite a few minor scuff marks, scrates and a gash in the front bumper. The transmission is quite bad on it, once you drive it for about 20 mins while it heats up, every time it changes gears you feel a violent clunk. As far as I know the motor is still good.

I've got a few problems which I could use some help with but i'll post that in the appropriate section.

Nice to meet you all,
Kyle

Welcome...good luck on the trans...has it ever been serviced?

Haha Nope!

Once the trans started to go, alot more minor things started to go and that's when my dad decided to say "**** it". He used to treat the body like a pos (he would actually throw a box of rusty nails or some **** on the hood) until I got her back to a nice stage.

This car is gonna take some money, but i've got a neighbour who has built a 71 Buick GNS from scratch and he knows quite a bit of cars. Once I get the money i'm thinking about investing in a new trans.

Since this car was given to me as a present, it's still a lot cheaper than buying another car.
