    FOUND GNX 249

    I buy from auctions and saw this one posted. It states missing VIN so possibly could be a recovered steal. It is listed as running and driving so should be okay. Has salvage title so private owner can't title it in their name in most states. http://www.copart.com/us/Lot/29913705?searchId=137731841

    87 Buick Black Turbo T WE4 car 57K original miles needs motor work

    If I can ask why was the motor taken out? Is it all stock or does it have some mods? Do you know when the last time the motor ran?

    TH400 vs 200R4

    Thanks I did check the classified here and found another one that I am interested in. What would you ask about for the rebuilt engine to judge if it was done right?

    Newbie from IL

    Hey I am new to this scene looking for a slightly/mildly modded T Type. I have had a few Stangs and even a Regal GS modded but want to finally own and drive a T Type. I am looking for one that is at least in the 12's in the 1/4 with no major body damage. I actually had a 78 Turbo T type awhile...

    TH400 vs 200R4

    Not trying to side track my own thread but what is the purpose of airbags on these. I am used to them being used on truck for towing. Also I see some with scanmasters and did a search and they show it sits on the column but didn't say what it does. I have found another T Type with manual options...

    TH400 vs 200R4

    Well if maybe I didn't work 1 and a half jobs and chase after 3 kids while trying to keep a wife (happy) I would have more time to enjoy these fine cars, maybe someone can give me the winning powerball numbers and I would have a lot more time and $$ for cars LOL. These cars came out while I was...

    TH400 vs 200R4

    Thanks for all the responses. I would rather have OD but for now I could live without it if the rest of the car is decent. I just wanted a sleeper to mess with my friends and coworkers who have Vettes, Stangs and Camaros with superchargers and stuff. He says he has too many cars (who doesn't)...

    TH400 vs 200R4

    I am new to these cars but am looking to get one for a weekend driver, I like the sleeper look of this body style. I found one online in my price range but is has a built TCI TH400 instead of the 200R4. Besides not having OD and a lock up convertor is there anything else negative about this...

    TH400 vs 200R4

    I am looking for a weekend car and the GN/T Type are at the top of my list. I found one that is in my price range and but it has the TH400 instead of the 200R4. Besides not having a lock up convertor and OD what are any disadvantages? Is a built 400 more sturdy than a comparable built 200R4? I...

    Newbie Questions for T Type

    Hello I was looking ro getting a stock or mildly modified T Type for mainly street driving on a tight budget. I wanted to go fast but retain AC and streetability. Is the stock IC a big restriction? What would be some suggestions for mods to get a T Type to get into the mid 12's? Can this be done...

    Newbie considering a T Type

    No pics that I can post. He wants $5800 which doesn't seem to bad but I wanted to ask the experts. What do you think of the turbo, injectors, chip and IC?

    Newbie considering a T Type

    Hello I was looking to get another toy and ran across this T type. I have owned a few Mustang GT's and a Camaro (355ci) but am not that familiar with this drivetrain just remembering facts from when they came out and everybody talked about them. Here are some important tidpits on the car...
