1987 Buick Turbo Regal "WE4 - 1 of 1547"
Texas Car Since New! Have the window sticker ! ! ! Clean Experian Vehicle History Report ! ! !
Had been repainted back in the early 1990's. Clear coat has peeled off the hood and trunk. Needs paint and interior. Have new carpet for it already! Have some extra parts that go with the car also. Feel free to contact me if you have questions!
