OEM - Excuse my ignorance but what does that mean? Is there a GMC guide to abbreviations & slang?
PS. We're currently at Fountainbleu State Park just north of New Orleans and its gorgeous! I would highly recommend it as far as state parks go & only $16.

Matt,
I have to agree, I don't think my CPO ever drove my 73 Glacier but the
improvements and work he did were all done meticulously. New 3" SS
exhaust, Edlebrock aluminum heads and everything else he did are very much
appreciated. His focus was to get it road worthy and dependable - I am
continuing in that same vane while trying to decide on the mods I may want
to do on the interior.
My Glacier was very much original and a fairly local coach that was in good
original condition that just sat for a while - I kind of think of some of
these "retro fits and restorations" as "Rescue Coaches" - a two letter
acronym perhaps? I have a rescued Yellow Lab - why not a rescued Glacier.
Oh - and I'm proud to say the PO and myself are good friends - which you can
never have enough of when you have a GMC. VBG!
