My brother just sold his '87 GN. Low miles and all stock. He's a Buick freak. Presently he owns 4 restored '70 - '72 GS 455s. I'll have to shoot a few pics of them. He'd like nice GSX or GNX now. Prices are thru the roof.

I've seen modded GN engines push Datsun Z-cars into the LOW 10's. Those engines are NO JOKE!!!

My buddy's '87 Turbo Regal runs low 10's......rediculous fast. I'm shocked at how durable they are. To have that much power and still be perfectly streetable with low 20's for gas mileage and a/c is a wonderful thing.

BTW....finally got to see the car today. It is basically perfect and I pick it up tomorrow.

I just picked up a new toy myself.

I may have to thin the herd a little.

How fast does it go Scott?

Twin turbos? Hurst shifter?

Its a Polaris Ranger XP 4x4. 700 twin Electronic Fuel Injected. Top speed is 44mph. Its like a 4 wheeler, pickup truck and golf cart all rolled into one vehicle. Very cool candy apple red metalic paint.

I had a 500 Sportsman 4 wheeler, but hey, Im getting to old for that kindof punishment.

I may sell a couple of my 4003's. Maybe the Blueboy (still blue), and my Blueburst (NAMM model, 1st production one sold, so I'm told), both dead mint.

I got it last week. Very happy with it. There a few dings that I didn't expect but they are very minor......with a car cover on it must have been used as a storage bench. Overall it is VERY clean. It runs strong so it will be a great base for some mods.....nothing too major. Some basic non-intrusive hot rodding will get me in the mid-12's easy (with decent fuel economy, a/c, and reliability). Good times, good times!
