you should have no issue fitting in the GN as a big guy ... with the bucket seats they are very forgiving. I'm 6 foot 2 and i fit in my T-Type. Thats kind of what drew me to that car. I hate feeling cramped in cars. Yes GM used that motor for quite a long time through all of its international divisions obviously. The early 2000's regal all had them with superchargers for the special edition regals.

An issued area on a G-body frame is right behind the back tires. That would be the first place I would look if I was in the market for such a car, Malibu, 442, Hurst/olds, GN etc..... Good luck, awesome looking cars.

In my travels today, I visited this one gentlemens shop and he said, 'you want to see Dad's Buick?' Went back in the shop and I was staring at a 4100 mile '87 GNX! I kept my distance as I did not want to get drool all over it. Very nice piece!

Thanks for the heads-up S-J, but a GNX is kinda outta my budget at the moment, so I guess the next best thing is a nicer 86-7 GN. Hey SJ, You are with Classic Ind? Im looking to buy a 'hinged' Stinger hood for my 72 Nova in CA, you guys carry them in stock or are they a ship only when order item?
Rich , those B/W diffs are still in use here in OZ. Plentyful and reasonably stout. Alot of guys run them here in lighter cars with upgrades,they use less drive HP than a 9" cheers Dave

I would caution you on any super low miles GN/GNX.Or have someone perform an inspection that knows what to look at. I'd rather buy a honest well kept 50k mile car.

DL </div></div> Thats my thinking. Id prefer a driver with service history than a parked up queen with orig hoses and hard seals from sitting etc. There has been a couple of nice GNs on TurboBuick.com but too far away for me. I'll be in SoCal for only 3 weeks to buy 4-6 cars so time will tell. cheers.
