1985 Buick GNX

Haha! The supercharger goes directly into a standard single-snorkel GM air cleaner. How efficient can that be?:confused:
 
It says it has a major title issue. Wonder if the car was totaled before or something. Looks like a decently clean car with a stupid motor in it. I would buy it, yank out the motor and trans and sell it, and rebuild it to be a turbo car. Not sure I would pay more than $5k for this car. Probably worth more like $3-$4k though. But this guy probably thinks he will get $15k for it:rolleyes:
 
Come on guy's it's worth 15k all day long...........we all know how rare those 85 GNX's are, and to have it be one of the very very rare GNX Limited models also! What was it again.......out of the 547 only the last 47 were Limiteds.:biggrin:...........I know he didn't say it was one of them....but I's can tell it is.;)
 
i like the manifolds, q-bogggg carb, stock pump, an the old model heads with no bolt hole for alt... bet that belt wont stay on...

If you had a TR that needed parts and a roller Gbody sitting around it would make a great parts car;)
 
the ad doesn't say it's an 85 GNX- it says that it has the "GRAND NATIONAL GNX looks and performance for a fraction of the cost".
it is listed as an 85 Limited, with the engine that he thinks they should have used in the GN instead of a turbocharged V6.
other than the blower setup, it looks like a pretty nice car.
and it wouldn't be that hard to fix what is wrong with the blower setup- a custom calibrated carb that is setup for a blowthru application, a carb hat and a few pieces of ducting to hook it up to the blower properly, and a K&N air cleaner and it's done.
i'd also add a set of headers to it, too.
