Picked up my 87 GN yesterday

[whoudi]

I have been a member here for about 3 years ever since I got serious about looking for a Grand National. The site has been a tremendous tool for research and information pertaining to these cars. Mine is an 87 T-Top, 2 owner, 30,380mi car originally bought in Kentucky. The car came with a host of documentation including the original 30 day tag. The only mods I have identified are an older hypertech chip (soon to be replaced with one from Eric at Turbo Tweak), wider rear rubber and an exhaust. The car made a 2 hour, 135 mile trip home cruising 75 down the turnpike without a hiccup. I love the car. The only complaint I have is an idle issue/drivability issue slowing down to stop which a scanmaster reading and new chip should help me identify and remedy. I will take a few more pictures when I get a chance but here is the car when I took delivery yesterday. Can't wait to get out and enjoy my new Grand National!

Looks real nice! Wheels look wider than stick to me or is it just the tires?

Sticker was $21,995.00. I paid $21,500.00 with $650 in T-top parts thrown in. They ordered me a new T-top center bar and mount, as well as new weather stripping for the T-tops. All in all I was very happy with the price. I have looked at a total of 3 previous before this one that were cheaper but had more miles and not nearly as nice. I did end up spending more than I had originally intended to but finding a 30,000 mile 2 owner with documentation I was more than happy paying what I did.
