I'm selling my 1987 Buick Grand National.  I've owned it for almost seven years. I'm the third owner.  It has 50435 miles.  I bought this car in New Jersey. It has a totally rust free body.  It was stripped down to bare metal.  There are no patches or bondo in the body.  It was repainted with Sikkens Base Coat/ Clear Coat. The body is arrow straight.  The car is basically rebuilt from top to bottom. The undercarriage is unrestored. It never had any undercoating applied. The drivetrain is number matching. It has about 4 thousand miles on it since it was built.  It was built with the best parts available at the time. It was built in 2004.  The interior is all original and in excellent condition. I did replace the gray insert in the drivers seat due to me tearing it with a screwdiver in my pocket. A local upholstery shop had some original material to use.  This is a solid roof car with nearly all options except t-tops, digital dash, and twilight sentenal.

Engine.

Forged pistons. Balanced rotating assembly. Arp bolts. Comp Cams Stage1 Cam. Comp Cams Valve Springs. Manly Valves. Blueprinted oil pump housing. ESP Maf Pipe. Plenum 70. RJC Power Plate-P. 50# injectors. 70mm throttlebody.  Walbro 340 pump with hot wire kit.  80 pounds oil pressure on startup. 40 pounds when hot.  The engine dynoed at 548hp.  It runs excellent and can be driven anywhere on 93 octane. T/A Performance headers and Flowmaster exhaust with stock location muffler. Precision Front Mount Intercooler. 6176E Precision Turbo.

Trans.

Built by Turbine Tech in Wayne, New Jersey.

3000 Stall Converter with lockup.  This converter is very tight. You won't know you have a 3000 stall driving around town.  I really like it.  Turbine Tech. Fabric Clutch.

Rearend.

Stock 8.5 totally rebuilt by Corrinthian Couchworks in New Jersey. 

New bearings, Posi rebuilt.  373 US gearset.

Suspension.

New idler arm and Centerlinl.

Big Front Swaybar with urentane bushings.

Herb Adams 2 inch drop spring all around.

Koni Shocks.

Brakes.

Original powermaster with rebuilt pump and new accumulator.  Works good.

Aluminum drums on the rear.

Tires

Mickey Thompson radials front and rear.

This car handles better than any A or G body I've owned.  It has no rattles or sqeaks.  It really speaks to being a low mileage car.

The only thing not working is the power antenae.  The motor is fine. It needs the plastic mast cable replaced. I've ordered one and will try to replace it before the car sells.  Everything else works including the A/C.  It still has it's R12 in it.

This has been a great car. I haven't used it much in the last few years.  Whoever gets it will be getting a great car. I've got 30k invested in it.  Good bidding. No reserve.

Any questions. Please email me. I will call you back if you want more info.

GM issues CUV stop-sale due to Goodyear tires [UPDATE]

Thu, Jan 22 2015

UPDATE: A previous version of this story incorrectly stated that only 6,281 tires were installed on the CUVs, when in actuality, there were 6,281 CUVs affected by the stop-sale order, totaling 25,124 tires. The story has been edited to reflect this. General Motors has issued a stop-sale order on some 6,300 of its Lambda platform crossovers due to a pending recall on their 18-inch Goodyear Fortera HL tires. The affected vehicles include all three flavors of GM's large CUV platform, consisting of the 2015 Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave. Goodyear is recalling a total of 48,500 Fortera HL tires after discovering "very small" cracks in the tread, found during internal testing. Of the affected tires, 32,100 were made for GM, Goodyear told Automotive News. According to GM, 6,281 CUVs were fitted with the questionable rubber, totaling 25,124 of the company's 32,100 tires. The remainder were stocked as replacements, a GM rep told Autoblog. The remaining 16,400 tires were built specifically for the aftermarket. Goodyear reports that the cracks do "not indicate a safety issue." Meanwhile, a GM spokesman told AN that stop-sale "will eventually lead to a non-compliance recall by GM."

Jay Leno recaps Pebble Beach

Wed, Sep 30 2015

Each year at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance the picturesque, ocean-side setting of the golf course becomes a parking lot for a vast array of multi-million dollar vehicles. However, if you missed the posh event this year, then Jay Leno has you covered yet again. For a nearly hour-long installment of Jay Leno's Garage, the comedian has dumped his denim in favor of a suit to take viewers on an insider tour of the lavish gathering. He interviewed some of the most talented designers in the auto industry, too. Leno starts off checking out a few beautiful classics by the shore, but things really get interesting for his stroll down the Concept Car Lawn for a scoop on the vehicles of tomorrow. Ed Welburn tells Leno all about the Buick Avenir, and Shiro Nakamura offers a tour of the Infiniti Q60. Plus, there are detailed looks at the Lincoln Continental, Hyundai Vision G Coupe, and Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6.
