I hate stupid people that try to talk about cars.

I didn't see it but looks nice in pix.

I went and looked the car over today. It looks decent. Just going to need a paint job and some interior redone before long to make it look like it should. So to me, the selling price is not in the ballpark.

If the Vin starts with 242, you've got a GTO! It isn't that hard, but yeah, everyone is an expert when their buddies are around.

[Baba Ganoush]

I was with a client last week driving around his '67 GTO after a year long, frame off, to the nines restoration. We stopped at a local show and posted up. It seems there were a lot of doubters that it was a real GTO, lots of "tempest/lemans clone" comments. I guess because it had bench seats, column shift and it was a post coupe. However, we had the hood up and you could clearly read the original ID tag on the firewall. If you can't decipher an ID plate, then you shouldn't offer your "expert" opinion.

Lots of dumbshits out there that you just have to share air with.

I always get the " I bet you done 1fitty or sickty".

Nope. Cars never been over 80. Then they tell me how I'm wasting it and don't deserve to own that kinda car. And how fast they would go of course

[f0ur sixer]

My favorite is when I drive my cobra to work they all ask "how high do da speedo go". You know, because that is the fact that dictates how fast it can go.

Then they continue to tell me to put 'nawz' on it and if I don't it will never be fast.

bring yourself to Red Oak and help me rebuild the front suspension on my 98 GMC K1500 4x4....and while you're here I'll show you what a REAL Buick GN is

Broken wrist bud, had surgery last Thursday to repair the damage. I have been too fucked up on drugs to drive.

It was intentional. I am going a bit stir crazy after being stuck in my house the last week, looking for entertainment where I can.

Patrick we could go round and round for hours about this if we chose to.
You're missing the point...and I think intentionally. Yes...Buick sold a Regal in 1982 with a Grand National package..it wasn't turbocharged by default (yes..it was actually possible to special order a 1982 Regal Sport Coupe WITH the Grand National package)..it was an appearance package. Buick sold a front wheel drive LeSabre with the 3800 SFI V6...with the Grand National package...but again without a turbo.......it wasn't what most people think of when they hear "Buick Grand National".

Was it sold as a Grand National? Was it offered with a turbo v6? Might not be the same as your Grand National, but it is a Grand National.


^^^Also a Grand National ^^^

I made the mistake of setting my background at work to a picture of my Fox GT. Nothing crazy about it's appearance but it is on welds/slicks. Now I have to hear about bazillion horsepower complete titanium engine not-street-legal nonsense from a coworker old enough to be my father.

Have fun with it, shoot some seriously off the wall shit back at him. Keep doing it until he is convinced you are a moron and leaves you alone. Problem solved.

That would be an 82 Regal with the Grand National package...one of the 215 or so known to exist. Its not exactly the same thing as an 84-87...and you know it.
