Welcome, pics are a must. Does it have the 3.1 or the 3.4 moter? I always liked them and have been keeping an eye out for a cheap one but with one convertible being worked on, it has always seemed like enough.

lshlsh2, thanks for the welcome. The 94 has a 3.4 motor. Sounds good with a slight growl when pushed. Pretty good condition but as always parts are hard to find. Will get pics asap. thanks

Welcome aboard,
Parts for your car shouldn't be as hard to find as you think. It's only 19 years old now, so not yet a classic... just teasing.

Keep your eyes peeled at the bone yards. They seem to have a lot of these cars coming through, and while the parts are not new, some could certainly be re-purposed. The other thing you should take into account is the Cutlass, Regal, Grand Am, LeSabre etc may have some mechanical crossovers that allow them to be donor cars. (power seats, windows, trunk, AC programmer etc)

So do we call you 'guy' or 'kid'?
