I just wanted to send this post out that I am interested in helping people out with Turbo Buick issues here in Jacksonville and surrounding areas. I can do anything from valve spings to general tune up. All work done for a reasonable rate. I had my car restored from the ground up including the motor and trans rebuilt, paint and body. I know it is getting harder to find people that know these cars. I have been working on the 1986-'87 GN/T Types since 1995. Send me a message if you would like more information and discuss what work you need done. I can work in my garage or travel if needed. Hope to get a chance to help out someone that is going through some car issues, I know how frustrating it can be. Randy
Randy, Thanks for the post. Nice to know the North Florida guys can atleast get a second opinion if not help fixing the gremlins that sometimes pop up with these cars. -Alex

Hey randy do you know anyone in Tampa area that is good with these cars I've got a few problems nothing to big but would love to find someone close thanks
I don't know of any one in the Tampa area. Kevin King at KDK performance in Orlando is probably the closest and the best in the area as far as tuning. His number is 407-298-2706.
Great thread. We live over in the western panhandle in Panama City. If anyone needs help with their cars from the south east, we have gotten pretty good at this too. We have 7 here in town and 3 (mine included) have gone through everything from engine and tranny swaps, to blown head gaskets, timing chain replacement and just tracking down gremlins and paint and body work. So if anyone needs help, PM me
I'll have to let you know the next time I am over that way on vacation. Would be cool to talk Buicks. Thanks for the post!!
Razor is in Tampa. He could probably help you out with certain things. If not, im sure he would know someone in the tampa area.
Jeff at Trackside(use to be economy auto)is good people. 954-946-4043. Has 5-6 Turbo Regals in his shop right now. Trackside 343 sw 14th ave Pompano, fl 33069 Its just west of andrews on race track road(forgot what they call it now) Its just east of the Isle casino and pompano park.
If you are a little north like West Palm area, Dave at J&J Upholstery does great Buick work. He's worked on most cars in the area and is getting ready to replace my Alky setup (Right Dave????) Right near 95 & 1oth.
