Any one know approx what year ?
Or engine specs ?

It's a '79-81 (approximately) Buick Century 4 door, and yes, some could definitely be had with an optional turbocharged engine...Maybe Dennis Kirban could tell us more about these...

Claude. :wink:

I've only seen one in person many years ago for sale at the Englishtown Swap Meet....1987-88 or so.

It was light blue in color with full hubcaps and Pat Barrett from Level 10 Transmissions was the seller.

IIRC a sign in the window stated that there were less than fifty made in 1980.
I don't know where the seller got those figures from but it could be possible.

I believe a board member who posts in the "before black" section has a similar car.
