Up for bid is a genuine 1987 Buick Grand National 3.8 SFI Turbo. It has 81,468 miles on it. We purchased this vehicle in April 1991 with 22,181 miles on it. It was our family car for many years. In 2004, it was going to need an exhaust and new tires for PA inspection. We decided to park the car with the hopes of someday restoring it. The GN has always been garage kept, and still is. I started the car and drove it around the block, periodically, for the 1st year. It has been sitting since about May or June of 2005. The car was running good at that time, but it has not been started in a while. If I recall, some issues with the car are the power-master breaking system was sluggish and the power antenna has not worked for some time. As you can see in the pictures the car does need work: drivers side seat is ripped, T-tops need new seals and rust repaired, steering wheel needs new wrapping, the car has some rust and is in need of a paint job, the GN caps (on the wheels) are missing, the rubber on the rear bumper is gouged and the front bumper filler is dry rotted and breaking into pieces.
The transmission was replaced by a Buick dealer in March 1993 with 32,466 miles, and the turbo was replaced by a Buick dealer in February 1997 with 46,149 miles on it. My hope is someone will bring back this Grand National to its original form and have a nice collectable car for many years to come. I tried to be as descriptive as possible. If you have any questions please e-mail me. I will answer your questions to the best of my ability (I am not a mechanic).
Remember, the car was running when I parked it, but has not been started for some time. It will have to towed to its destination. Buyer is responsible for shipping.

What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
Opel Cascada is Europe's Buick convertible [w/video]
Wed, 17 Oct 2012As we reported earlier, there has been much speculation regarding a Buick convertible of sorts. The most ringing endorsement of this conjecture comes today from General Motors Europe, as the new Opel Cascada has debuted on the interwebs. Opel calls the four-passenger Cascada an "athletic, glamorous midsize convertible." With a length of 4,697mm (185 in.), the Cascada is as long as an Audi A5, to which GM has said it would be slightly larger.
The Cascada, which is Spanish for waterfall, features a cloth convertible top that retracts in 17 seconds and at speeds up to 50 km/h (31 mph). The Cascada features a 1.4-liter turbo gas engine, 2.0-liter turbodiesel with 165 horsepower and a range-topping 1.6-liter turbocharged Ecotec engine that puts out 170 horsepower and 280 Nm (207 lb-ft). Power is sent through either a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission.
According to GM, the Cascada will also come rife with luxury and tech features. In addition to adaptive forward lighting and ergonomic heated front seats, the convertible will feature Opel Eye, which is a front camera that can recognize traffic signs and incorporates lane departure warning and forward collision alert.
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.
