if you read the ad he says it was borna V8 car. it was never a GN just has GN parts on it.
Some thing is fishy that VIN provided has a 7 engine code...
Probably black market parts on there.
He says it was born a V-8 car but yet if that vin# he provides is correct then it started lif off as a turbo car because it has the vin code 7 which was for the 87 turbo cars.
looks like a nice reliable driver to me. the TPI motor might not be the fastest thing ever, but they make great torque and will run forever with minimal maintainance.it thought he may have made a typing error and meant born a v6 car, but still. It took alot of work to make it "look" cool, and it just makes me sick seeing that, that, that hideous creature under the hood of what should be beautiful piping and turbo stuff. It's like a hot chick flashing you and instead getting balled Ok, maybe not that bad...I remember a guy in my hometown in Kentucky who had a GN that someone had done a v8 switcharoo on, he thought it was cool, but he was also a nutbar.
Go back, and re-read the auction again. You guys keep missing one thing.
He sure found a great place to hide them! Nobody in there right mind would look under the hood of a Turbo Buick for a 350 TPI engine and trans.Yep I messed up the count!:redface:
I still think theres hot parts on there.....
good eye 85grandnation and 87gta
and cragar, a 427 SMALL block? i thought all 427 motors were big blocks, except the new LS7 out of this years ZO6, which is a 427 small block. oh well, at any rate, if I had a grand national that threw a rod, and I had the money, the LS7 would be the VERY first engine I'd run to, for a replacement. Though Id keep the full stock exhaust on it. I hate loud V8's. Plus it wouldnt sound right coming from a GN.
