Geesus..I was expecting something else...that would bring up a gag reflex.
Not this.
Crap - dare I say - that is a good deal?
You can barely buy a decent used KIA for $10K
That's alot of car.
How cute and kinda cool with the Limited style side markers - or whatever they are called.
Cool!
A little more detail to the interior and it could be really fine.

And hell - if you (I) were in the mood - sell the LT1 motor and put in a LC2.
A Wash. But I sorta like it - as blasphemous as it is.
Man - if I had 10 spare laying around I just might.

The ad was gone before I could check it out but all I know is if it still available everyone should go try to buy it right now as it would be 1 of 1 considering just like the corvette the were no GN's made in 1983.

There is a write up on Bring a trailer about this car: http://bringatrailer.com/2013/12/20/lt1-swapped-grand-national-style-1983-buick-regal/

Love the comments on bringatrailer... one dude said he would rather have the LT1 over 30 year old turbo components....

Having both a Turbo Buick toy car and an LT1 as my daily driver I can say that both engines have their strong points. LT1's have a ton of torque right off the line which is awesome for me on my daily commute. On the freeway is another matter, hands down I would rather have the TB.
