Turbo Buick on a car lot in Muskogee, OK

[kjhansen]

Hey, anybody from Muskogee, OK out there? I was driving through on the way home to Missouri and spotted a TR of some kind (Grand National maybe, year unknown) on a car lot. Right as I came into town from the south on Highway 69, right side of the road. Anybody know anything about the car?

might be worth looking into. my T Type sat on a used car dealer's lot for 13 years with what the owner of the lot thought was a blown motor.
he wanted $5k for the car for the longest time, which is why it sat there. i happened to stop in and ask about it right when he was getting sick of looking at it, and bought it for $2k.
when i got it home, i ran a compression check and found no compression in 2 cylinders right next to each other- a good sign of a blown head gasket. pulled it apart and found the blown gasket. $100 in parts and 10 hours of my own labor, and i had a running car. when i drove it up to his lot a week later to show him what was wrong, he offered me my money back. i told him the car was worth at least $5k, and he threw me off his lot for trying to screw him over.. that was fun..
