Just picked up a Turbo Buick

[rocco]

So a few weeks ago I sold the Z28 for a healthy sum to a nice couple who always wanted one.

So I present to you it's replacement, my 1987 Buick Grand National with 81000 original KM's (50,000 miles) that is in overall great shape.
Picked it up from the previous owner yesterday afternoon and hauled it home.
I'll be doing new tires, new fluids, filters, exhaust and anything else that looks like it may need attention - overall i'm quite stoked as I've always wanted one of these.

Nice pickup!

Nice pickup!

No, that's a car not a truck.



I love these things. Check out Tom's Turbo Garage on youtube, he did a few videos of upgrades on his.

Great looking GN!

Great find! It's very difficult to find a clean reasonably priced GN around here that hasn't been beat to death. My dad raced Buicks for years in the early 90's and I gained a lot of respect for that "mean buzzin' half-dozen"!

 

[Johnf78]

I love those cars. Nice score!

 

[rocco]

car has some mild issues with the body and some older parts, my intention is to bring all of that back up to what I consider a respectable level and then start modding it. Mostly wheels, suspension and brakes. Looking to go the GNX wheels and about a 2" lowering.

Congrats. A buddy has one, modded, fast car, edged out my Shelby when we ran.

Nice ride!

 

[tjm73]

Very cool. Awesome cars. Always liked them.

Awesome! I have always wanted a GN. In fact, I was seriously shopping for one back '09 when I decided I wanted something newer. Then I was looking at '05-'06 GTOs and while they were pretty fast, they were ugly and expensive. Then I checked out s197 mustangs and never looked back.

I love GNs ever since I was a kid and still have hope that one day I will own one (just waiting for my wife to make partner with her firm, ha-ha).

 

[Shotokan1509]

Nice! Always amazed me just how fast these cars can be

 

[Sactown]

nice pick up! The GN's are starting to fetch some $$$ here in the states

 

[Shaffe]

bad ass!

 

[golkhl]

One of my all time dream cars!

 

[GallopingFord]

Very jealous... that is a car in my dream garage.

 

[Jeffk]

That's gorgeous! one of my bucket list cars too.

I've always been a Buick nut, almost bought an '86 GN brand new. Probably would have been a bad idea though.
