Winner of numerous "BEST OF SHOW" and Top Specialty Awards!

Just picture yourself receiving a "BEST OF SHOW" Award with this car!

Here are photos of some of the many "BEST OF SHOW" Awards
that this car has received; some of which are over 6 Feet Tall!


 In the past 19 years that I have owned this vehicle; it has never been taken to the drag strip and raced as it was built and prepared to compete at the highest level at car shows. Many people who have seen my "TROPHY ROOM" have jaw dropping expressions on their faces when they see the numerous trophies some of which are over 6 feet tall. These are the kinds of trophies that many serious car show owners would literally kill for and spend thousands of dollars on their own vehicle in order to have these trophies in their own private collection!

AVERAGE SCORES AT CAR SHOWS:

1. Engine Compartment: Highly detailed with many chrome plated parts; 100 Points.
2.. Undercarriage: Highly detailed which includes a chrome polished stainless steel exhaust system & mufflers; 100 Points.
3. Trunk: Complete upholstered trunk area and trunk lid; 100 Points.
4. Interior: Which includes custom logo floor mats; 100 Points.
5. Exterior Paint: Since most of the vehicle has never been repainted and still has the factory paint which includes minor flaws such as orange peel along with the factory applied lower rocker panel chip spray; most judges score the paint in the low 90's.

MECHANICAL CONDITION:
Everything is in perfect working condition; including the BF Goodrich tires which look and perform like new.

You might find a Grand National at a cheaper price; but I guarantee you it will not be a truly
proven winner at car shows; with numerous trophies that I have to back up this statement!

A Grand National in this low mileage mint condition that has not been highly modified and raced is a truly rare find!


"ENGINE AREA"

 

3.8 Liter V6 Turbocharged Engine!

NOTES:

1. Except for the aftermarket K&N Cone Air Filter system; everything underneath the hood is totally stock.
2. Many engine parts have been chrome plated and highly detailed.

GM cutting production at two plants

Thu, Feb 26 2015

General Motors is continuing to adjust to excess supply of some of its brands' models. To get production more in line with the vehicles' actual demand, the automotive giant is idling two of its factories in North America in the coming months. The Orion Assembly plant is going to be down from March 9-13, according to an anonymous plant worker and another insider speaking to Automotive News. The factory builds the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, but there are plenty of both models sitting on dealer lots, including 216 days worth of Sonics, according to AN. The factory already had two idle periods announced to reduce the excess. In addition, downtime is scheduled at GM's "Flex" line at the Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, plant from April 13-17. This affects supply of the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala, Buick Regal and Cadillac XTS. Among them, the automotive giant has the largest supply of Regals ready for dealers with 213 days worth of them, according to AN. The future for the whole Oshawa factory is cloudy in general, though. There are rumors that it could close entirely in the future because the Camaro is leaving and the Regal and XTS might not last much longer than 2017. The Canadian government and the labor union there intend to put up a fight, though.

GM laying off 510 amidst slow Cadillac, small car sales

Wed, 12 Nov 2014

General Motors is laying off about 510 workers from two factories beginning in January, and it could be months before the automaker needs some of that latent capacity to come back on line. A combination of poor sales and high dealer inventories are prompting the cutbacks, according to Automotive News.
The largest changes come at GM's Lansing Grand River plant, where the Cadillac ATS and CTS are made. An entire shift of about 350 workers is being laid off, but the automaker hopes to find positions for some of them at other nearby factories. The decision leaves just a single shift building vehicles there. According to Automotive News, the move is partially spurred by Johan de Nysschen's plan to make Cadillac a more exclusive brand.
The lost shift will likely return for production of the next-generation Chevrolet Camaro at the plant, according to the report, but GM isn't saying when that will be. A previous announcement from the Canadian Auto Workers union indicated that the Oshawa, Ontario, factory would lose the coupe in late 2015 or early 2016.

GM re-recalls 11k SUVs

Tue, Oct 13 2015

General Motors is recalling a bunch of previously recalled SUVs because, well, they still aren't quite fixed. The latest repairs are necessary on 10,974 SUVs in North America, including 9,932 in only the US. Affected models include the 2006-2007 Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, and GMC Envoy; plus the 2006 Trailblazer EXT and Envoy XL. While not listed by NHTSA, a statement by GM to Autoblog says the 2006-2007 Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender are also affected. In these SUVs, it's possible that liquid could get into the driver's door master power window switch module and cause a short circuit. This could potentially lead to a fire, and owners are urged to park the vehicles outside until repaired. GM has been trying to fix this issue for years. It started as an investigation into fires, and that led to a recall for about 250,000 vehicles in cold-weather states. A nationwide campaign came in 2013 for 193,000 of them in the US. Last year, the automaker decided to replace the whole module as a repair. However in a recent investigation of these recalls, GM discovered that this latest group of SUVs never received the new part. According to documents submitted to NHTSA (as a PDF), "Some dealers incorrectly used the labor code associated with module replacement when, instead of replacing the module, they only added a protective coating to the module." To fix things this time, the models finally get the correct component. Related Video: GM Statement General Motors is recalling 9,932 older midsize SUVs in the U.S. because they were mistakenly excluded from an earlier recall. Certain 2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL, and 2006-2007 TrailBlazer, Envoy, Buick Rainier, Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender vehicles may continue to have a condition in which the printed circuit board inside the driver's door may corrode and short if exposed to certain fluids such as melted snow containing road salt. GM is aware of four fires but no crashes, injuries or fatalities associated with the expanded recall. The total number of vehicles being recalled, including Canada, Mexico and exports is 10.974. Customers are urged to park these vehicles outside until repairs have been made. GM reported this recall to the NHTSA on September 23.
