Picking up my 89 tomorrow

8uwav6 · 03-29-2008, 03:06 AM

Hello All,

I just bought an 89. Picking it up tomorrow. Don't know much at all about these cars. I have always liked them and I love forced injection so I went ahead and bought one to play with. This might become my sons first car when he turns 16 next year, if I don't decide I like it better then my other daily driver.
I have a 98 Buick Regal GS supercharged daily driver, 06 Dodge Cummins tow rig, just sold my 94 Dodge Cummins, and MY car is a 86 Buick Grand National.
I have had to GN run a 11.6 at 121 MPH just last year. Blew a head gasket and she is in parts in the garage waiting to get put back together again.

Anyways I look forward to learning alot about these car and joining this community.

oh here is a link to the car I bought, wish me well.

The pickup went smooth. Car looks decent, paint job is not the best it will need at least a good wet sanding maybe more. Car drives good, seems to have good power and handling. Excited bout being on a Supra forum and learning about this thing.
