Vehicle Description
HIGHLIGHTS: Unmolested 1980s American Icon! This Grand National has
been kept true to its original form and remains unmodified. With a
recent repaint and a well-maintained interior, this Buick will not
disappoint!
BODY OVERVIEW: The body is clean and straight, with all of the
proper emblems and trim still in place and in good condition. It
has been repainted, but there are no indications that this car has
been fully taken apart or restored. This example has been very
well-preserved. Though it hasn't been stored in the original
plastic inside a shipping container for the last 30 years, it has
been well-maintained!
With just over 100,000 miles on the odometer, the body on this car
is in remarkable condition for a car of his age. Additionally, lots
of the weatherstripping has been replaced to keep this car looking
factory fresh.
PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW: This car was repainted recently, and it
shows! Because the fresh paint hasn't been on it very long, there
is a distinct lack of dings, dents, and other body damage. Black
paint shows all body flaws, and this car is truly in great
condition.
INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW: Stepping inside this Buick has got to
be what it feels like to step through a wormhole into 1987.
Everything inside this car is just so gloriously 1980s. Slide the
seat back, adjust the tilt steering column to the correct height,
and you don't even have to start the car to feel like you're going
for a ride! The interior is in excellent original condition,
looking as if this car has half the indicated mileage. The interior
is as complete as it is clean, with minimal wear and no cracks or
other damage. The only note worthy item is the back of the rear
seats are starting to show a little wear that is only visible if
you are looking through the rear window. Otherwise, this is a clean
car!
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW: Under the hood sits the original 3.8-liter
turbocharged V6 hooked up to the original 2004R transmission.
Numbers matching VIN stamps on both! This engine has been properly
maintained, and runs like it should while the transmission operates
smoothly. This is a fun, fast, and unique little car! The turbo-V6
was not only innovative for the time period, but made for a serious
street car. Just about anyone who remembers when these were new
will tell you what street beasts they were! Not only does this
Buick run and drive great, but it comes with receipts for recent
(2020) maintenance totaling over $7,000.
This car drives straight, shifts smoothly, and has the all-around
feel of a well-maintained car. This is a turn-key vehicle ready to
hit the asphalt!
WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR: If you love Regals, Grand
Nationals, G-bodies in general, or cars from the 1980s you'll love
everything about this car. Plus, the original interior is in
fantastic condition!
WHAT YOU MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR: If you loathe anything newer
than 1973, this is not the car for you. If you live and die by V8s,
but don't have an open mind, this car is also not for you. Other
than that, there's not much bad to say about it!
DOES IT NEED ANYTHING? This car is turn-key as it sits, and needs
nothing to be enjoyed as is. All the hard work to bring it back to
looking nearly new has been done! All you have to do is enjoy
it.
WHAT BUYER IS LOOKING FOR THIS CAR? Anyone looking for a classic
1980s American Icon! This is the perfect statement vehicle for
anyone that came of age in the 1980s, and one of the most sinister
looking unmodified cars out there. The buyer looking for this Grand
National wants a car that is nice enough to show off, but not so
nice that they are afraid to hit the streets in it every chance
that they get.
