Vehicle Detail
You are bidding on a rare 1987 Buick Regal Turbo T with WE4 package. The WE4 is a package that was offered on the 1987 Buick Regals that made it similar to the 1987 Grand National except for the color of the interior, badging, bumper braces, and wheels. Only 1,547 made. This actual car was also featured in a Popular Mechanics magazine article,(http://books.google.com/books?id=KmYEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PT62&dq=popular+mechanics+buick+regal+t+type+bob+hansen&hl=en&ei=WEGdTvXnKY2OigL7y-nlCQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CDUQ6AEwAA#v=twopage&q&f=true )however it is no longer set up exactly as it was during the writing of the article. I will attempt to describe anything and everything that I do know about the car to the best of my knowledge, feel free to call 480-612-7474 or email about any additional questions before bidding. Car odometer reads 40, 941 at time of listing. This is not the original gauge cluster. It has been replaced but it does make noise as the speed begins to register in cold weather. The car has roughly 165,000 miles on it but you would not know it. It runs and drives great. Title will say total mileage unknown and is clear NOT restored or salvage...All suspension and mechanical parts are in good road worthy condition. The engine has been rebuilt and has roughly 20,000 miles on it. The transmission has been rebuilt by Len Freeman Performance Transmission out of Las Vegas who specialize in turbo buicks and a Hughes convertor in it. It has roughly 4000 miles on it.Set up to shift pretty firm. The a/c currently does not work (the compressor leaked out freon this summer but worked fine and noise free previously). The power master cylinder has been replaced with a vacuum assisted master cylinder/ brake booster. The power antenna does not work. The cruise control does not work. The car does not currently have its catalytic convertor installed but is included with sale. The body is rustfree everywhere, the paint finish is as would be expected on a car this age, has random dings and scratches throughout, but overall good for a daily driver. Interior is in excellent condition but headliner is just starting to sag in some spots(see pics)...Car has 3" downpipe, catalytic convertor eliminator pipe, Bosch adjustable fuel pressure regulator, Red Armstrong dual fuel pump sending unit, hotwired, line lock, extra bracing behind rear seats, K & N air filter element, Red Armstrong 93 Octane eprom chip, and stock one included. To sum up, this is a great driver, needs minimum to repair a/c, power antenna, and cruise control, or drive as is, and gets attention everywhere its driven.
