Hello everyone,
I'm new to this forum and wanted to ask for your advice and knowledge. I've got a 1987 Buick Turbo T with roughly 100k original miles on it. Body is in good shape, no dent or dings, car had rocker rot and sun fade (plan on a full repaint and replacement of needed body parts). When I bought the car I could get to to start and idle for a few seconds then die. ( I plan on pulling the engine and having it mildly built.) Brakes are shot. Car needs to be gone through with a fine toothed comb. I guess I'm just overwhelmed in that I don't even know where to begin with this car. Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions, etc. would be greatly appreciated. All this being said, it's still a good looking car with what I believe to be a ton of potential.
Best Regards,
Derek
