Save this car. This Grand National has set outside for last 12 years , the last owner did not give it the respect it should have got. Said he was going to restore it some day!, after years of trying to buy the car, he gave in and sold me the car, I already have two 442 project cars, but had to get the car out of there before he changed his mind, so I’m putting on here in hopes someone will restore this Grand National back to it’s glory days.
As you can see in pictures motor is apart and on a motor stand, all the parts are in the trunk,( turbo, brackets, valve covers, ect.) the parts I know are missing are ,fan shroud, heads, and the aluminum turbo wheels. There were no keys for car, I drilled out trunk lock, so you will need one, and I removed ignition lock, so car would steer, no damage was done doing this. Please look at all pictures before bidding, I know little about Grand Nationals, and the trunk sticker with all the RPO codes should help with options and shows this is a Grand National. Please ask all questions before you bid.
I have a clear Title in Hand in my name. You will need to have all shipping arrangements made, I will help load if possible, all money must be paid before this car moves from my garage. A 100.00 deposit must be made through pay pal within 24 hours of the sale, unless we have made different arrangements . Thanks for looking.
I have took good look at seats, and they will need recovered, both fronts have rips but not at seam. Also, if car get's no bids by Friday , I will pull car, I have a offer for the drive train (motor, trans, rear end), and I will part out rest of car,( let me know if you need something) and scrap what I don't sale.

GM recalls 51k Enclave, Traverse, Acadia crossovers over fuel gauge inaccuracy
Mon, 05 May 2014With all eyes fixed on General Motors in the wake of the ignition recall debacle, the auto giant has been carefully calling in a wide array of vehicles to fix anything and everything that could prove problematic. Just the other day it issued two separate recalls - one concerning the Cadillac SRX and another its heavy-duty pickups - and now it is issuing another.
This time the vehicles in question are the Buick Enclave, Chevy Traverse and GMC Acadia, three fullsize crossovers based on GM's Lambda platform. In an estimated 51,640 units manufactured between March 26 and August 15, 2013, the engine control module has been found to incorrectly display the level of fuel in the tank.
As a result, owners are being notified to bring their vehicles in to their local dealers to have the ECU reflashed to fix the problem. View the full details in the announcement below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Buick Riviera Concept hits the floor in Shanghai
Sat, 20 Apr 2013Here we have a concept in the true sense of the term. The Buick Riviera you see here - the name of which was last used in production back in 1999 - is said to preview Buick's future styling direction, which means we should expect to see more flowing body shapes to go along with new versions of the marque's classic waterfall grille design. Oh, and we don't believe there's a single porthole in sight.
Powered by Buick's so-called dual-mode wireless plug-in hybrid electric vehicle propulsion system (we'll stick with the W-PHEV acronym) that allows the car to be charged wirelessly just by driving atop a special charging mat on the ground, the car's powertrain is just as futuristic as its exterior shape.
Other high-tech bits include holographic projections on the windshield showing the driver what's around him, with input coming from 10 high-res cameras and 18 micro high-precision sensors. The car also sports 4G wireless connectivity so that its occupants are always connected.
Hyundai, Buick dealer apologize in wake of Chinese baby social media incident
Sat, 09 Mar 2013A very strange story out of China today, as Hyundai and a Chinese Buick dealer were forced to face allegations of using allusions to an infamous child murder on a social media site as a way of promoting the safety features of their respective vehicles.
The original sad tale goes something like this: On March 4, a man reported to police that he had left his infant child in a running Toyota RAV4 while he ran into a supermarket briefly. When he came back out, the vehicle and the child were gone. Later in the week a suspect turned himself in to the police; confessing to them that he had stolen a sport-utility vehicle, strangled the infant that was in it, and then buried the child in the snow.
As you might imagine, the gristly incident was covered massively in the Chinese media. (There was huge public outcry as well, as evidenced by the vigil scene, above.) "Changchun baby abduction" was very quickly amongst the highest ranking search teams of the China's Weibo social media site - an equivalent of Twitter in the English-speaking world.
