If you clicked this ad, you most likely already know these T-Types or Turbo Ts are the same car as a Grand National, but lighter, rarer, and available with more options. You also know that 86-87 are the only years you should really be looking at because of changes in the design such as the intercooler. This is a very lightly modified example compared to many I have owned. Off the top of my head, the upgrades are as follows:
I also have extra parts to be included with the sale including:
This T-Type starts right up and runs great. It pulls very strong for a stock turbo car. I have never taken it down the track, but feel confident enough to say it is a mid-12 second car in the quarter comparing it to my other T-Type I have raced. There is no rust that I can find anywhere in the car and all electric options work. The paint is original as are the bumper fillers. The car originally came with a Parchment White vinyl roof that was removed because there was a split in it. I have all the trim if you'd like to replace the vinyl top. The paint is not perfect. There are scrapes and scratches. Most notably, there is a dent in the middle-rear of the roof (the reason the vinyl top split most likely) and there is a dent in the driver rear quarter from something inside the trunk hitting it. It looks pretty good even without the vinyl top though. This is also an original chrome trim car. The grille was plastidipped black by the previous owner. That is easy to remove if you don't like it or you can finish off the look and do the rest of the trim which I think would look pretty awesome. The interior has no rips or tears, but the pull straps need one or two of those escutcheon plates that always seems to fall off and the driver power lock button is not mounted to the door panel as it should be. I think it just needs to be clipped back in, but I haven't popped off the bottom of the door panel to do so. The headliner has already been redone and looks great. The car also has practically new tires on the original aluminum T-Type wheels. The powermaster unit has also already been replaced, so no worries there. There are no check engine or other idiot lights on the dash and the oil pressure is great. Bottom line is this is a very solid, original 87 Buick T-Type that would be an awesome driver or platform to build for your new project. Many pictures below.

Small number of 2013 Buick Encore models recalled for loose steering wheel
Thu, 04 Apr 2013General Motors has issued a recall and a stop sale for the 2013 Buick Encore due to an issue that could result in the steering wheel falling off on certain models. In a letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, GM says that 144 Encores equipped with heated steering wheels could have been incorrectly retrofitted due to a parts shortage.
Needless to say, a loose or separated steering wheel would likely cause an accident if it happened while the vehicle was in motion. The recall doesn't go into effect until April 12, but concerned Encore owners can use the official recall notice (attached below) to contact GM.
Buick might be getting a logo makeover
Fri, 23 Nov 2012General Motors has finished off an extensive model overhaul for its Buick division, but along with its updated cars, the brand might also be getting a new logo. According to the Detroit Free Press, GM North America President Mark Reuss indicated that the Buick tri-shield logo could be getting a makeover, but offered no further information.
It is unlikely Buick will completely redesign or replace its current logo, but the article seems to indicate that it might return to color; although all chrome now, the logo used to feature red, white and blue shields. Head on over to the Detroit Free Press article to look at some past Buick logos including one from 1904.
