 1987  Buick Grand National 9 second Street Car with multiple folders receipts and documentation all custom with only the best and most expensive parts and builders
I am a Physician and had the best builders, tuners and fabricators build this car from ground up for street and strip.  There was no budget placed on the car and it ended up over 100K.  The car was almost 20,000 initially and began about 5 years ago as an original undamaged 38,000 mile car.  Engine and transmission was removed and stored and the car was taken apart professionally focusing on suspension and safety while engine and transmission were constructed.

the car is totally fresh only to car shows and work this year.

NO RUST!!! No accidents

Its ready for whatever the new intends to do, drive or race or both.

The Bad

AC need charging, I dont use it
Speedometer works but is jumpy, probably needs calibrated or replaced cable

I have the origianal dash odometer prior to GNX dash added that foes with care
total car miles less than 45 K on the body

Why would I sell after all this crazy money was spent?
Because I dont have time to race as a busy Specialist Physician and I just bought a Gallardo and deal was I quit racing if got a Lambo with the wife and I have way too many cars, I have a crazy mustang notch back available with and without drive train I will also be listing as well

Ask questions as there is literally no way to list everything done to this car and the receipts and paper work alone require several large folders
I have it all and it goes with car.
More pics available if needed
Car located right by Cincinnati OHIO

thanks for looking
Please no bidding if you do not have funds to buy in hand, car will appraise much higher than insured for, I only insured for 45,000 $ to keep the collector care insurance rate low

OnStar RemoteLink mobile app coming standard on all new GM vehicles

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

As an evolution and improvement of its OnStar technology, General Motors has announced that it will be expanding the RemoteLink Mobile App on most 2014 model year Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicles. The new, aptly named RemoteLink Key Fob Services will allow users to remotely operate all of the same systems as the car's key fob, including locking and unlocking the doors and remote starting (on vehicles equipped with a factory remote starter) using a smartphone.
These Key Fob Services will be free for five years - starting from the vehicle's delivery date - but the full suite of RemoteLink features will continue to be offered only with a subscription (trial or paid). These premium features include contacting a live adviser, getting turn-by-turn directions and remotely monitoring the vehicle's diagnostic systems.

2014 Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse recalled over brake mix-up

Thu, 08 May 2014

The recall madness over at General Motors isn't letting up anytime soon, as evidenced by this latest call-back of 8,208 Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans. For those keeping track, this is the fifth recall that GM has announced in the past two weeks, not to mention the massive ignition-switch issue from earlier this year.
GM issued a statement saying these sedans are being recalled due to "possible reduced braking performance," according to Automotive News. The problem? Rear brake rotors may have accidentally been installed in the front brake assembly. And since both cars use more robust braking systems up front than out back, braking power could be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.
Automotive News reports that, of the over 8,000 cars being recalled, about 1,700 are currently in the hands of customers, while the others are still in dealer inventory. GM is unaware of any crashes or injuries related to this problem. All of the affected vehicles are from the 2014 model year.

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
