1986 GRAND NATIONAL

1986 Buick Grand National

CAR DOES NOT RUN OR DRIVE THE MOTOR WENT OUT NEEDS TO BE REBUILT!
Car had 121k miles when purchased and well maintained and never modified or raced. The paint was standard for that era (crows feet and cracking everywhere), so that is where we started. Car was taken down to metal and repainted and it is a VERY nice, deep paint job. Very straight, no waves and panels align nicely. Car has less than 1500 miles since restoration. PLEASE READ...Here we go:
Paint and Body - Taken down to metal and repainted base/clear. New body bushing installed at the same time and all the plastic was replaced with NOS parts (front air dams, 87 blacked out grill, headlight bezels, bumper strips, wheel housing trim, etc). All emblems were left off except for BUICK in front grill - I like the blacked out look on these cars. I do have emblems, so those go with the car. All new weatherstripping all the way around. I also have new 3.8 SFI Turbo emblems that go on the hood...again, I prefer the blacked out look. New hood pad with the GN Logo. New rubber bumpers on hood, fenders, and trunk deck as well as doors. New black lock cylinders on doors as well. On a scale of 1-10, the exterior of this car gets a 9 because nothing is perfect.
Interior - Dash is completely original and looks great! No tears, rips, or cracks. Kind of amazing. Headliner, door panels, door handles (pulls), carpet, floor mats, shifter handle, and seat covers all replaced with NOS parts! Interior looks and smells like new. Dynomat was used inside doors and under carpet as well as along sail panels and roof area. New door hinges, striker bolts and doors shut nice and solid - do not sag. All new door and window switches, dome light trim and bezel, etc and everything is functional. Stereo was replaced with a new Alpine with Bluetooth technology, satellite radio (HD) and the power antenna still works. Speakers were replaced with high dollar Infinity all the way around (6x9s in rear) and it sounds nice. I do have the factory stereo and speakers as well. AC blows Cold and heat blows hot. All gauges work. I rate the interior a solid 9 out of 10.
Wheels, Tires, Suspension, Steering, Brakes - Brake components (rotors, calipers, etc) are factory and work fine. I did convert the car to hydro boost to get rid of that horrible power master design. I still have the power master set up, just this one works better. Wheels are OER GNX wheels bought brand new ($1200 for set) and tires are Kumho - all new. Alignment is also fresh. Suspension and Steering is all factory stuff and work great. I rate this area a solid 9.
Exhaust - 3" ceramic and heat barrier coated down pipe through 3" Full Throttle exhaust all the way out of the back. Exhaust manifolds are factory, but also ceramic coated with heat barrier. Sounds great and runs even better. I rate the exhaust a solid 10.
Drive train - Car was fully optioned, so it has 342 ratio rear end and it is stock posi. Engine was built by professional builder for these cars, balanced, forged internals, roller billet cam and lifter set with matching timing chain and valve springs, roller rockers, port matched heads and intake, upper intake ceramic coated with heat barrier and upper powder coated black, all powder coated brackets, HUGE front mount inter cooler (I have stock one), slightly larger turbo with billet wheel and ceramic coated housing (have stock turbo), matched injectors, turbo intake pipes are all ceramic coated with heat barrier, all new sensors, relays, switches, ignition module, coil, radiator is a 4 row aluminum design with huge dual fans ($1200 set up), valve covers were a very nice choice with baffled breathers that work well. Transmission was built nicely by professional that specializes in 200R4 designs for these cars. Shifts nice and shift. A lock up style converter was used matched to the turbo. I rate this a solid 9.
Overall, car is super clean and fun to drive, easily an overall 9 out of 10 (10 being perfect). I built to be a daily driver if needed, but lately it has been a car show cruiser. All modifications were slight and all original parts are here as well and come with the car.
