Have I seen this car? Is it the one that showed up at little monsters at our before TTV?

 

[TurboSlacker]

I don't think so. Mark hasn't driven it much in recent years.

 

[JP87GN]

Dan, Mark sent me some pic's of the car. Looks pretty clean to me. I think it would make a nice driver.

So who bought this car???

I was hoping to get it for myself so that I could get back into the TB scene, but unfortunately there was one person ahead of me and he ended up buying it.

Maybe someday I will find one....

Bill, look in Autotrader.com. There are a few T-types and GNs in there, that are fairly local, some are high milers. I looked under regal and found a GN in Woodburn that is $10,950 with 88,000 miles on it. Here's a link to it - ttp://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=170117302&dealer_id=&car_year=1987&make=BUICK&distance=200&max_price=&model=GRNAT&end_year=1987&advcd_on=n&min_price=&address=98296&search_type=used&advanced=n&start_year=1986&color=&cardist=190
...I also saw a silver t-type in Carnation for $8000 with BBS style wheels or maybe even GNX wheels. Doesnt show the mileage. Heres a link to the t-type - http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.j...&advanced=n&start_year=1985&color=&cardist=16
Hey I found my car in there, and I am VERY happy!

 

[turbov6truck]

Sorry about the weird post.. if you saw it..
I am having it deleted. I hate this computer!!
Bill, just look in autotrader and you will see a bunch of cars under Regals and Grand Nationals. I saw a silver T Type in Carnation for 8,000 and a Grand National in Woodburn for 10,950.
Good luck in your search

I just saw this car in the trader tonight and Dennis and a few of the others know him. It the one Wanda was talking about. 1987 BUICK REGAL (TURBO), Very good cond. Light mods. Smooth & reliable. Great example of the Turbo Regal, rarer than the Grand National. $8000, 425-333-6404, CARNATION WA

 

[turbov6truck]

The picture of the silver car in Carnation is pretty nice. It looks like it has BBS's or GNX style wheels.

Ya, I've been checking the

Auto Trader on a regular basis. I'm not in a big hurry and will find one eventually. I really do want a silver T rather than another GN tho....and definately has to be a hardtop.

Is that silver hardtop too much $$? Its a clean car, I have seen it before and so has Dennis,Gene,Adam,Dan and a few other locals.

 

[billsgn]

Not that it is too much $$.....

but $6500 is more affordable with what I have plans for. The upgrades and mods that I have in mind is more than $6500 so price is important. If I were planning on leaving it stock, then the $8000 car would be a great purchase.

Thanks for the heads up....I will keep looking and will eventually find one and get back into the "in crowd"
