Good stuff..just what I needed. Good to know no frame troubles. I can fix stuff like tie rods. I plan on checking all the welds under the car. I'm also going to spend alot of time checking the doors, trunk and hood fit...

Without naming names, I learned from some owners of other brands that engine compartment heat can get passed the firewall and foot boxes and intrude on the passenger compartment, making the driver and passenger very umcomfotable. I understand this is probably a hot car anyway, but I really don't want a hot breeze blowing on my legs all day.
Is this a problem with the SV? If so, is there an accepted fix?

How about parts to improve the handling? Like anti sway bars, shocks & different rate springs? How well do the Granada/GM caliper brakes work?

Thanks for your time...
