Before and After Video Progress 87 GN Hard Top

I purchased 87 GN Hard Top locally, March 4, 2008.

Biggest issue, BRAKES, trying to stay with powermaster and finally installing Vacuum Brake.... Added New TA 49 Turbo, 3 inch stainless steel polished dual exhaust, kirban brace kit package, rjc power plate, torque strap, k&n, street chip, keystone turbo rims/bfg tires (rims purchased spring of 1988). This vehicle previously owned by southern mississippi air force resident and stored winters when it was driven back to the midwest. Rust Free 87 GN Hard Top in excellent condition with need for exterior paint, grill & bezel replacement.

Thanks to Brian, asc certified mechanic from Green Bay, WI.
turbobuick.com id: GBGN1, and current WE4 owner, Brian helped fix oil, tranny leaks, driver header cracked, tweak parts here and there.


Lots of parts to be added, gnx cloning process, new paint too...
who knows, it is a hobby to keep me occupied and out of trouble...
