Bob Avellar said:Mo Vaugn ,former Red Sox player had one. Sold or gave it to his cousin who was also his agent. He then proceeded to streey race it all over the place. Bob Borelli (Buick Racer) tuned it and did most all of the mods to it. It recently ended up with a twin turbo chevy motor in it.
Unfortunately, no pictures. I've gone to Borelli's shop maybe 3 -4 times over the years and every time I went there that particular car was there. I heard that some people saw that car race on RT.140 in New Bedford and they said they never saw anything that mean on the street. I think his name was Clarence Vaugn (Mo's couisin). He was always doing something to it. Maybe if I had my camera phone like I do now I could have got some pics. BTW, that shop was always spotless and Bob was pretty layed back. Seems like he's very methodical and very knowledgeable. A little off topic but I even saw a brand new crate motor there that was built for Mark Donohue when he raced Javelins so successfully in the TransAM series back in the late sixties. Borelli used to be into American Motors cars and raced them back in the day. I guess he has always liked to do things the hard way.John Wilde said:Sick, I want pics!!!!
He actullay had it converted to hand controls so he could still drive after his injury.paul vilser said:I think that Michael Utley, the Detroit Lion who suffered a parilyzing injury on the field several years ago had a GN
This car was for sale a few years ago on this site. I almost pulled the trigger on a GSX/GNX trade...XLR8 said:I believe the golfer Fuzzy Zoeller - who is a car enthusiast/collector - said his favorite car was his GNX.
GNRick said:Charles Schwab I think had a GNX. Was watching TV a couple years ago and Funk Master Flex came on. He interviewed some rapper guy (can't remember who it was) who had 3 or 4 VERY expensive cars. A Jag, a BMW, etc. His favorite was his GN. So he took Flex for a drive and the entire 10 minute interview took place in the GN!
