The cruise on mine kept acting up throughout the week, so on Friday I took it in to the local Chevy dealer and had them take a look at it. Turns out the cruise module is the culprit, which is an item that is no longer available from GM. The local boneyard has one for around $40.00, but I've got a bid in on ebay for a NOS unit for around $150.00 -- I'd rather spend more for a new one than screw around with a well-worn box out of the scrap yard.

 

I've been snooping around the internet looking at '02-'05 Retrobirds, but the more I look the more I am drawn to the late-90's era Thunderbirds instead. I haven't seen any real pristine, low-mileage ones yet, but if I do I might jump on it!
