Here are a few more pics from a car show. The only difference is it doesnt show the blacked out headlights.

Also If I get asking price ill throw in Three Dealer Manuals and a few other buick spec books from 87. I also have the expensive part of the t-top seals brand new from gm. I forgot to mention I have in great condition the original t-top bags.

 

[bumpinregal]

Also Forgot to mention it has a rebuit factory turbo with less that 800 miles on it. Man I can't believe im selling my baby.

 

[bumpinregal]

Sold or holding on to it???

 

[turbobuick87gn]

probably holding on to cause he made a guy drive 11 hours then turned down the money or his car

he wasted a buddies time and money

 

[696]

What happened???

 

[turbobuick87gn]

he said he was going to trade my buddies drag car for his gn so my buddy drove 11 hours and when he got there he said he decided he didnt' want to trade after looking at the car for a little bit.. so my buddy said how much you want for the car i''ll get it...he told him how much then he said ok let me get it transfered when he said that the guy said that he decided he didnt' want to sell it anymore.. so basically my buddy drove 11 houes for no reason. just for a guy to waste his time and money....

There is so much more to it than that. I drove 11 hours as well i didnt intend on not trading do you really think I would drive that far for no reason? The car he had was not what I expected and he made me really nervous with his hurried approach to the whole sale. I didnt turn down his money. If he would have had cash the car would have been his. I told him I was sorry and he seemed let down but not upset. My buddies and I thought he really handled it well. I dont want to rip on the car cause it was a nice car. but just not what I expected and there was no way I was trading my baby for something I would regret. After my frustration with the 1100 mile drive and everything my wife and I decided the car could stay. and after the first week the new daycare was open we made more than planed. So again. I hope lance understands and he sure seemed to when i met him. Nice guy

 

[turbobuick87gn]

well what was all said is you and your dad wanted a drag car and he brought you one and you were more worried about the grill and the parking lights lenses..he said he even offered to get the money and you told him that you decided not to sell it...and i'm going to let you know he was HOTTT... but its over now just letting you know....

Im happy you found your gn. Good luck with everything. I have good reason for what I did and im sorry you dont understand. I drove just as far as you with no overnight at a hotel. I was up for 45 hours striaght. I dont want you to think your the only one that lost here. We both lost. As far as insults... Im gonna leave this whole topic alone. I am a stand up guy of my word. The car was not what I expected at all. In the pictures it looks mint. I could go on and on about all the stupid stuff That didnt add up but im not gonna. Whats done is done and We both learned a lot from this. You feel you got screwed and I feel misled. Thats all there is too it but you dont need to attack me and try to ruin my rep. Your Nova is bad a$$. We both know it. Just not what I expected. I dont think you lied to me. I just think how we look at things are just a bit different. End of story.
