I have been checking out some cruise nights in the area over the past few weeks and have only seen a few buicks. Plainfield had a nicely built clean 87 T, Funny Lemont has only had 2 Turbo cars but one was a 35k mile or so very clean TTA, leather t-top car and the other was GNX 223 that was owned by a well known member and featured in Car and Driver magazine. It is all original with a couple GNX specific parts swapped and the originals set aside so it can actually be driven and enjoyed every know and then. I talked the the owner for a little bit and he was a super nice guy I think he said he was a member here. I also see a gold color stage1 GS at the Lemont and Downer Grove show. I took my daughter there tonight and saw 2 GN's both 87 one was very clean with low miles 40k or so... Mostly stock right down to the airbox but it had tons of chrome under the hood which can be overdone at some times but this one was done tastefully. Then I eyed another one in a parking lot, the hood was flat black as was the rear deck lid and bumper... My guess was fiberglass getting ready to paint cause this car looked serious. The hood was closed bit it had all the goodies definitely a race car set up. I know there are tons of buicks around chicagoland. Where do you guys hang out? As soon as I get the Trans done on the RX-6 I wanna be out and about to show off some Buick power!
