Title: Need help with my TGP...
Post by: SnipSnip on August 10, 2012, 02:47:47 PM
Hi. I have a 1990 Pontiac TGP that I have shamefully let sit and rot. I am at a crossroads wo.dering if it is worth restoring it, if I should sell it for.parts or just donate it. It wont start now, needs new tires and paint, hubby says its rusty underneath, it was in a crash about 12 years ago so it has a 1991 front end on it and radiator (I know...dont ask me how they did it either.) It ran perfect then developed a power steering fluid leak and instead of getting it fixed, I bougbt another car and parked it, tossed a cover on it and there it sat. Need help deciding what to do. Is it worth it to restore it? Thanks for any help.

While I'm a huge fan of these cars....From a monetary value standpoint, I say it doesn't make sense to restore it. If you want a TGP, it may be a better idea to purchase one in better shape.

Plenty of people here would appreciate you parting out and selling bits or sell it to someone else to part out. Take some pictures, too.

       Yea especially if the undercarriage is all rusted up, just doesnt seem feasable to restore it. However as you notice theirs people on the site thats willing to purchace some of the items on your car to fix up theirs, thats not in such bad condition. In fact theirs a few things that I would like off of it myself. I'll PM you on those items.
