SALE PENDING

Sent you a mail. The car has the stock turbo and converter on it now.

Yes, no money's changed hands yet.

Yes, I haven't posted it on Craigslist yet. I tried to price it for a quick local sale. We'll see...

You can have the car with the 17" Fittipaldi wheels and spacers instead of the stock wheels. Same deal with the 18" MB wheels, but no tires with those unless you want to pay extra for them.

I don't currently have pics with the stock wheels. The wheels in the pics are still on the car. I'll try to swap them out this week. They're the stock T wheels and centers in pretty good shape. The tires were on the car when I purchased it 14 year ago so they're old. They look good...

SOLD ’87 Buick Turbo T hardtop The car looks and runs great. Roughly 110k miles. With the exception of valve springs and the Power Plate, the long block is unopened. Price is firm and is with the stock wheels. Other wheel options are negotiable. Options Pics...

The lock-up behavior seemed normal and I didn't detect any slippage under lock.

Thought I'd update the post. I put the stock turbo on it and put a stock converter in it and it behaves normally, so it was a bad converter. Anyplace closer than AZ that can rebuild a 9/11?

Mine used to be pretty tight. Not any more. Just looking for alternatives before sending it off to get fixed.

For what its worth, I think it had about 275 in 3 & D at idle with the TV manually extended to full throttle. I only have Turbolink and it wasn't set up, so I'm just guessing at throttle position. It behaved similarly at full throttle. Too many cars out this evening to go full throttle...

OK, I have about 200psi at a bit under full TV (3/4?) when it exhibits the symptoms. RPM pretty much redlines per the LED tach. I accidentally hit the lockup and the RPM immediately dropped to something more reasonable... and the car went sideways at about 55mph... I keep reaching the same...

Yes, stock pan and filter. I should take it for a ride with the gauge taped to the windshield...

I guess I should qualify that. The pressures are good with the car stationary. I don't have a fixed gauge in the car. It's overfilled by about a quart, so I don't think it's starving...

Fluid pressures are good.

I've lost count of the number of times I've had the transmission out of my car. I rebuilt the transmission over the winter with some PTS parts I'd purchased years ago. It was my first rebuild, so when I noticed slippage, I figured I'd screwed something up. It behaves normally when cruising...

For $45 I should probably just drill a hole in mine and it'd give me an excuse to get the welder out. Thanks though.
