That GN was a great car, fast, kept it clean and tuned. Had a ‘hot’ chip and intercooler mods. Was my everyday driver for 160,000 miles including towing my race bikes. I miss it.

Uncle always refers to the Detroits Diesels as “Screaming Green Leakers”.
Of course he spent his time across the street working at the Cummins service center.
