The car is an original 87 Buick regal turbo under cover narcotics police car. The car is supposedly one of 14 made for California under Regans war on drugs program, the normal police cars couldn't always keep up with the drug runners so the Turbo Buick came to the rescue. The car is all original un molested 140k on odo but the Ukiah Sheriffs department had the motor and turbo rebuilt around 120k. The car is gun metal grey with bucket seats and a center shifter. The only police car indications are a motarola cb speaker kind of tucked up in front of the shifter, a cb hanger in the glove box, and a decal on the speedo saying shift to overdrive during high speed pusuit. The car is rust free, the good except for door dings and passenger fender looks like a tire blowout did a little damage. Mechanicaly the car runs and drives but has been sitting pretty much since 93 when the police were done with it. The owner before me bought it from a GM lot in 93, he was really really really afraid someone was always going to steal it so he kept it wrapped up and put away. I bought in June of 06 with intentions on restoring it being so rare I couldn't resist possible Barrett Jackson car in 10-20 years. Any how the time has come too many projects and lack of funds to complete them force sale. $8000 pictures on the way.
