Title: The nicest Grand National period, for sale
Post by: tb3 on July 27 2015, 12:42:20 AM

came across the nicest grand national for sale, period, on ebay.  So I thought I'd give the seller a hand and get the word out.
according to the description, all it needs is hood struts, speedometer and a power antenna,  but if you can afford the 65,000 dollar price tag, you could probably swing the extra cash for the parts.

The nicest GN belonged to a friend of mine here in town...who passed away a couple years back. It has an original 500 miles on it...and retains the interior plastic covers on the seats, steering wheel, doors etc. He was a mechanic at the local GM dealer here in town when he ordered it in 1987...and he also did the PDI on it...hence why the protective plastic is still on the interior.

I saw that and emailed the guy asking him why his boost solenoid was unplugged.  Also the bumper fillers are faded.  If it was always garaged parked I don't think the fillers would look like that.  On the 3 buick regals I've owned none of the fillers ever looked that faded or even cracked.

Probably not the nicest one in his state, never mind anywhere.
