Hello y'all my name is Brian and I'm from Siloam Springs Arkansas. I recently purchased my Absolute dream car. 1987 Buick Grand National. The want for this amazing machine started out when I was in 3rd grade where they taught kids to keep off drugs by using the D.A.R.E. Program. Our program had police officers that came to the schools in confiscated cars from drug dealers. It just so happened that ours was a mid 80's Grand National (turbine wheels). And I remember at such a young age people talking about how awesome this piece of machinery was.. Like some sort of black super hero car..
I'm 32 now and I came across an 87 with 67k miles.. Interior is like a time capsule. Few upgrades with room to grow.. Paint isn't perfect and someone painted the wheels black along with the turn signals.. I traded a fully restored 81 Camaro and a nice Monte Carlo SS for the GN.
At this time my mother had been battling stage 4 stomach and ovarian cancer. She lost the battle august 5th 2014. And this car has helped and is continuing to help me with dealing with the loss and 2 years of constant heartache with ups and downs that stem from cancer issues..
Where I'm at now:
The previous owner bought the car for his son and he lost interest in it so I didn't get drove much.. The check engine light came on so they pulled the fuse.. Which is also the other dummy lights. Long story short the oil pump failed and a cam had went flat.. So he told me if I bought the parts he'd pay to have it fixed..
