I've always been a fan of Grand Nationals ever since we used to take our Mustangs out to Englishtown for the 5.0/ Grand National Shootout back in the day. Well, about 2 weeks ago I happened upon an 87 Grand National about 30 minutes away from me, it has 43k original miles, runs and drives great but does need a few things. The paint is in great condition but the problem is that someone painted flames with pin striping on it so it needs a complete respray, it needs the proper exhaust, needs stock wheels, it appears to be lowered but I'm not sure, the headliner is falling down, it needs the stock steering wheel and needs a good sanitizing in the interior, sort of smells like a cat peed in it. I could probably take it off the owner's hands for $11.5k
In your opinion do you think this car is worth the asking price? I would be interested in taking it back to original as possible.
Ever since I took a closer look at and drove the car I have also been looking around for another GN that doesn't need so much work. The problem is that I already have a super clean 1992 Mustang black on black 5.0/ 5 speed notchback with 62k original documented miles sitting in the garage. I am kicking around the idea of getting rid of the Mustang in favor for a nice clean, lower mileage 1987 GN.
Is there anyone here selling or know anyone who is selling their clean, lower mileage GN AND in the market for a pretty rare black on black original 5.0/5 speed notchback? My Mustang is only worth about $12.5k so with any trades would also come some cash in hand, I am in Pittsburgh PA.
