1987 grand national

[808rushem]

was wondering if i can get any input. i know this question has been asked, & i have done some homework, but i'd like to figure out what the value of a 87 grand national is valued at. 113,000 miles, interior very clean, been repainted once, has a after market stereo, no leaks of any fluids as i can see, no dings in the body. no t top roof. Many thanks for your input. If i don't buy this car, looking to buy a 83 hurst olds with 88,000 miles.

I'd say mid teens. Would be higher with lower mileage. I'd get it over the olds. Much more fun to drive.

Looks like it's been well cared for; not sure about the value. Personally I'd prefer one without the T-tops; and I would chose a GN over the Olds any day.

I have owned both, The Olds was a neat car but would not get out of its own way, I had to replace the powerplant with a W31 350, I was also caretaker to a GNX which was a blast to drive and would get out of it's own way. I would go with the GN...

When I was a younger man, I got a ride in an '86 or '87 GN and all I can say is that thing was REALLY fast. It surprised the "you know what" out of me. Pinned me in the seat like nobody's business.

Go for the GN . . .

Typically with that many miles id say 9,500 range to 11 but she looks like she was treated well and not ridden hard and put away wet .. Id say 12 to 13,500 .. These cars will snap some heads back. The 89 TTA with the GN motor will do some damage as well .. Good luck and just know if you buy it we expect some smokey photos

I saw this the other day, not the same body, but maybe just as fast. And a lot cheaper.

Nope - no turbo

Looks like someone converted the power brakes from the Hydroboost system to a more conventional vacuum booster?

I think +/- $10k.

Dang, wrong again. I just ready Buick <span style="font-style: italic">planned</span> to put the turbo in the lesabre back then, but the trans could not handle it. But they kept the 'T' in the branding of the car, which thus fooled me. Always assumed T-type was a turbo V6.
