Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Under 2000 T Types made in 1986, and is essentially a Grand National as a different trim package.

This is a non-smoker hardtop car with 152000 kms (95000 miles) that includes power windows, power door locks, A/C, electronic touch climate control, and cruise control as factory options. Has a CD Player from a Le Sabre that keeps the stock look. It's a clean car inside and out, that's comfortable, handles great, and plenty of power from the turbocharged and intercooled V6 when you need it. Runs and drives great, and maintenance is all up to date with new fluids, new spark plugs, and new spark plug wires. Have receipts/records as well. It has brand new roof rail seals installed, and brand new outer door sills are included with the car (will probably install before pick-up). Center caps, spare shifter handle, and some other miscellaneous stuff is also included. *Seat cover on driver's seat in interior picture for protection.

There are some bolt-on modifications such as: Larger Precision turbo, 3" Downpipe to Hi-flow Cat to 3" exhaust with Flowmaster Mufflers, T/A Performance Competition headers, 57lb Siemens Fuel Injectors, Walbro 340 fuel pump with hotwire kit, custom braided #6 fuel return line, aluminum gas tank, Precision Front Mount Intercooler, GSCA Valve Springs, 204/214 non-roller cam, 3000 Stall D6 lock-up converter with a manual switch, Deep transmission pan, line-lock brake kit, TurboTweak chip, Scanmaster 2.0, Bilstein Shocks, Eibach Springs, Founders Performance rear lower control arms, rad support brace, and Chassis bracing behind rear-seat. Stock engine block with ported stock heads, and stock 8.5" posi rear-end with T/A Performance Girdle.
Engine, transmission, and rear end are numbers matching to the car.
Engine was rebuilt in 2001, and transmission was rebuilt in 2004 according to previous owner.

Currently sitting at 16psi of boost on 94 Octane. Plenty fast, and also easy to drive. Could use better tires since I have cheap ones on there due to the other ones becoming too worn. Some oil likes to sit in the vacuum block
at times, and will burn off on start-up. NO OIL BURNING, OR SMOKE, OR THE LIKE DURING IDLE, CRUISING, TAKE-OFF, UNDER LOAD, OR UNDER BOOST.

I'm not shipping the car, PICK-UP ONLY in Calgary, Alberta. If paying with bank draft, you WILL have to come to the bank with me.
If there are any questions, just ask.

Junkyard Gem: 1990 Buick Reatta

Wed, Oct 4 2017

General Motors built some interesting sporty cars during the late 1980s and early 1990s, as the company attempted to claw back market share from European manufacturers of high-end two-doors. There was the mean-looking Oldsmobile Trofeo, the Turin-to-Hamtramck Cadillac Allante, and the gadget-packed Buick Reatta. Here's an example of the latter car, wearing Maui Blue paint and residing in a Denver self-service wrecking yard. There was a lot to like about the Reatta, but the powertrain came as a disappointment: the ancient, rough-running pushrod Buick 3.8-liter V6 engine, driving the front wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. The 3800 engine made 165 horses in 1990, which wasn't bad for that year, but Reatta money would have bought you a new 1990 BMW 3-Series with a tuneful 168-horse DOHC straight-six. The Buick V6 was something of an Albanian grain-thresher motor compared to the engines in the Reatta's European rivals' cars: rugged but crude. The pre-1990 Reattas came with Buick's amazing touchscreen computer interface, which may have scared off the most conservative Buick traditionalists. This car had more typical-for-1990 controls. Only 6,388 Reatta coupes were made for 1990, so we're looking at one rare Buick here. Handcrafted by these artisans in Lansing.

GM's MPG overstatement could affect 2 million vehicles

Tue, May 17 2016

Late last week, GM admitted that three of its large SUVs fuel economy window stickers did not match their actual efficiency ratings, and so the vehicles couldn't be sold. The stickers on the 2016 Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Buick Enclave said their ratings were one to two miles per gallon better than they should have been. Officially, the number of affected vehicles sits at about 60,000. But Consumer Reports makes a good point: what's up with all of the previous model year SUVs that are basically the same vehicle? To wit: the 2016 model year vehicles are not substantially different than the 2015 or the 2014, or even going all the way back to 2007. On the EPA's fuel economy website, all of these older models will "have better stated fuel economy numbers than the new vehicles in GM's dealerships," Consumer Reports noted. CR's best point, and the one that makes the 60,000 number potentially grow to 2 million if all of the vehicles built on this platform are affected, is that "[i]t seems unlikely that the company would change the powertrain on these carryover models so late in their model cycles in a way that would cause a dramatic, negative impact on fuel economy." GM says that earlier model year SUVs are not affected and the EPA did not respond to CR's question about the potential for more discrepancies. We've seen automakers reverse course before, so if GM has to come out with a mea culpa soon, don't be surprised. GM is rushing corrected stickers to dealers so that the SUVs can be sold again, but a fix for the already-sold vehicles could be trickier to solve.
