Last night I bought my first Buick. from a old friend. My step son has been wanting one for some time. After we talked with my friend I ended up buying the car. Not sure if his mom will let him have it for his first car, just yet but I am going to play with it some tell he turns 16. The car needs some work, bumper fillers, front and back, breaks, and a tune up. But for a 1987 G.N. I fill its a very nice car.
Not going to lie, this car would not be my first pick as I am a fan of the 1968 Camaros and the mid 60's Mustangs. but I got to say this car has kinda got to me. I have been behind the wheel of this about 10 years ago, and wow, it was just as mean as it could be. Well this car has been setting for the past 4 years so as soon as I get it home, I am going to drain all the old gas, and start the major tune up.
I am also looking at upgrading the breaks. I been looking at a vacuum brake conversion kit. As I remember about 10 years ago I did not care for the breaks any. Then the wheels is a MUST GO! I know you guys like them but I am not a fan of them. I will be going to the older style Centerline wheels.(yes I will keep factory wheels, but they are not going to stay on it why I own the car!! LOL)
Once the kids mom gives me the OK to let him take off in it, then I will be looking at de-tuning it down some. I know a lot of you guys are going to call me craze for letting him have this as a first car, but why not! My first car was a 68 SS Camaro with a 396 ci 375HP. So I know how he fells wanting this car.
