I Need 1987 Two Tone Pics Please

I am looking for pics of a 1987 two tone Turbo T (not a limited). The silver/gray is preferable, but the more the better. TY

Everyone that I have ever seen has been a Limited. I think I have a photograph from the Nats back in '95 of a Silver Grey T, but it too was a Limited.
Wish I had a digital one for you.

It's Victor S. from the Lone Star Buick Club. He put on the WH1 spoiler. It is a beautiful car.

Good luck finding a two Tone that isn't a limited in '87.

Here's what I have for pix.

None are mine but I do know of an '87 Grey/silver non-limited that I looked at in around 88-89. Buckets and a cf5 moonroof. $12k at the time.

I also like landau roof but that's a different deal.

I know that non-Limited two tones exist from 1987, but they are very rare. There must be someone that has one lol.

Look above, the first silver car is not a limited.
It has the standard seats i believe, look at the head rest, looks like the standard T interior.

You did know that the T could be ordered with the extra chrome at the bottom of the doors and not be a limited

Hi Black Magic II I tried to email you privately, but you didn't allow that. Please send an email to me at Epitome@hvc.rr.com I have a few questions for you. I assume that is a pic of a car you own right? Thanks

I just got some great close up pics of an 87 two tone. One question that one of you can surely answer. Do all 87 two tones have 2 pinstripes? Or does every two tone have a single pinstripe and this car also has one that is optional? Thanks

I believe the '87s I've seen all had one, and the '86 Designers Series had two.
I'm sure someone who actually owns one will post up here shortly tho.

Hi Guys,
I need alittle help. I bought a car about 10 years ago that I thought was a GN, well it ended up not being a GN,but a two tone Turbo T that was painted black and made into a GN Cylone. Who ever did this spent ALOT of money to make it look like a GN. I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out if it is just a Turbo T or if it is a Turbo Limited. I will try to get a trunk lid label picture. Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

Click pic for larger. When webshots opens up just hit the magnifying glass with the plus for the full size. Hope this helps.

*EDIT*

Argh nevermind. Must look at thread dates before replying.

As stated a bigger picture would help. I'm old and can't read the small print on your trunk tag.

What does the interior look like? Limiteds have different door panels than base regals. GN has black carpet and GN seats.

E-Mail the pic to me at efisher@billheard.com and I'll see if I can enlarge it. I tried blowing it up and I can't read it because the resolution is too low.
