Hey Phil, Just a shout back to ya, prolly a Z question, but do you have any idea why they discontinued the GT option after only two years? Was it low sales maybe? Well, with the gfx. Y'all actually had an GT in '87 that was without gfx, but then they were added. And changes had to be made to the...

Thinking on that Rack & Pinion, Phil. Would it have been cost prohibitive? or itS prolly part of what killed it off. The front of the frame would have to be re-engineered to mount the rack , along with, at the time, a large rack built for a truck. which, of course, now we have on most light...

-The Crusher!!?? why did they not save that one like some of the other concepts? just to see it would be cool. yes and a engineering task for sure. there were some guys who made reverse spacer plates to turn the intake 180 degrees to have the TB to the front. remember seeing lots of pic of it...

Okey Dokey, Sir. I will try to keep it brief as I can..... I special ordered y first one in 1988. I knew there was no performance increase, but i loved the styling. As soon as I found out they were being discontinued in '90, I went out and had the local dealer search till he found some '89s...
