Description of 1987 Buick Grand National

You are looking at a tastefully and professionally modified 1987 Grand National hardtop (Canadian). You will not find a real 1987 GN this clean and this fast for this price. See it and you will believe it.
The mileage on the dash reads 40,000kms, but must have gone over one turn. In any case, the engine was recently rebuilt and has less than 10,000kms/6500 miles on it. All other major modifications were done last summer. Body and paint are very clean, 9/10. Interior and undercarriage are impeccable. A lot of time and money was invested in mods, but all stock parts come with the car, as well, including stock turbo, down pipe, ECM, etc. This car used to belong to the owner of a speed shop and has been very well maintained over the years. There's a lot to list here, so call or email with any questions or for more pics.
This car can easily run 11 seconds 1/4 mile on street tires with the right driver. Slicks can take you into the 10s, but a roll cage anddrive shaftloop(s) are highly recommended at that point. For daily driving, the car is smooth and docile as you need to give her a little to get that massive Turbonetics turbo spinning (see description). Right now, all that is missing is the cruise control module, freon for air conditioning, and cigarette lighter.Street or strip, let her rip!
