Buick Grand National 1987 Description
1987 Buick Regal Grand National. Actual WE2 Grand National with T-tops. Link to more pics: PicturesCar is a daily driveable project. It's rough around the edges but appears to be mostly original.
Looks to have had 1 repaint at some point. Bumper fillers are not originals, hey are fiberglass and in good condition. Paint is showing it's age, lease view the pictures carefully.
Driver's side rear spoiler extension is cracked. The headlight bezels have been painted but really need to be replaced. Windshield has crack in bottom of drivers side near vin plate. Needs new door, -top and trunk seals. They are old and brittle. Only rust I can find is 1 small spot in the passenger front pan and another in the passenger rear pan. Probably the size of a quarter. Also the trunk lid has a couple of tiny bubbles on the bottom lip above the tail lights. Bumpers are straight, oors, enders, nd quarters are all nice. A couple of dings but no major dents.
Interior looks pretty nice for an 87 model car, ut needs work. Needs headliner. Carpet is pretty nice. Seats look ok and work fine for a driver, ut they have been repaired with a few patches over the years. Gauges all work except for the tach, hat stays pegged in the red.
Drivetrain is solid. Fun to drive, ngine runs great. Trans is the 200R4 auto and feels to have a shift kit, arks 2nd gear easily. The whole engine bay could use a good cleaning and detailing. The valve cover gaskets leak and it looks as maybe the oil pan could use a new gasket also. Leaves a couple of drops overnight. Has new exhaust from the Catalytic converter all the way to the back of the car.
Heat works. A/C works but could probably use some freon, ot blowing as cold as it could be.
Wheels look nice, ut are showing their age up close.
Overall this is a pretty much unmolested Grand National. Solid foundation for whichever way you want to take it, hether it be a restoration or modified street car.
I will be posting more pics and a couple of videos to the link posted. https://www.flickr.com/photos/wecruisin/albums/72157660921516141
