This is a 1987 Buick Regal Grand National with the 3.8L Turbocharged V6. This car has a factory sunroof which was a rare option and gives you the same open air experience as the T-tops without the rattling and leaking. The engine and transmission where rebuilt approximately 30,000 miles ago, at that time they were lightly modified. Modifications for the motor include: a TA-49 turbocharger, a bigger intercooler, upgraded intake, 42 lb injectors, turbo tweak ECU chip and Scanmaster system. Modifications on the Transmission include: A 3000 stall torque converter and a shift kit all by Art Karr. The Fuel pump was also upgraded and finally the car has a Hooker cat back exhaust system. The mileage on the chassis is slightly more than the 156,000 indicated on the odometer, the reason being that the speedometer needed to be replaced with a used unit. The car runs fine with the only mechanical fault being the pump on the GM Powermaster brake booster has failed so it currently has reduced braking power. This unit can either be rebuilt or relatively easily swapped out for a conventional vacuum booster. The exterior of the car is in fair shape and the paint is this car's weakest feature. The clear coat on the hood is very weak. The interior is in better than average shape for a car of its age with no rips in the seat and only a single crack on the dashboard. The radio sounds great and the air conditioning blows cold. The car is located in Hampstead MD. Buyer is responsible for pick up or shipping. The car will also continue to be for sale locally throughout the auction.
