This 1987 Buick Grand National is an exceptionally well-preserved example of one of the most recognizable American performance cars of the 1980s. Finished in its iconic black exterior over a black and gray interior, this Grand National shows just 29,732 actual miles and remains remarkably original. Rather than being restored or heavily modified, the car retains its original 1987 paint, factory wheels, original interior, and factory gauge cluster, making it an increasingly difficult example to find in todays collector market.
Under the hood is Buicks legendary turbocharged and intercooled 3.8L V6, paired with an automatic transmission. The turbocharged Grand National became famous for delivering performance that challenged many of the eras V8-powered sports cars while maintaining the understated appearance of Buicks G-body coupe. This example remains largely factory in presentation, with tasteful additions including a stainless turbo cover and stainless exhaust system that gives the car an appropriately aggressive exhaust note without taking away from its original character.
Adding significantly to the appeal of this particular Grand National is its documented history. Originally an Arizona car, it later made its way to Florida, where it was offered by European Classics Inc. in Oakland Park before being purchased and transported to Indianapolis. Accompanying documentation includes a copy of the original owners title, previous purchase paperwork, an odometer statement, and shipping documentation from Florida to Indianapolis. A framed copy of the original build sheet is also included and shows a build date of December 4, 1987, placing this car among the very late-production examples from the Grand Nationals final model year.
The car rides on Uniroyal Tiger Paw tires that were installed approximately 500 miles ago, with supporting paperwork included. The original tires have also been retained and can accompany the car if desired. With its low mileage and unrestored nature, the Grand National presents exceptionally well for a nearly four-decade-old automobile while still displaying the authenticity expected from an original car.
Its condition has also earned recognition on the show field. This Grand National has received multiple Best in Show awards and has taken first place both times it was entered at the World of Wheels in Indianapolis. Those accomplishments speak to the quality of its presentation while making its largely original condition even more impressive.
The 1987 model year marked the end of the Grand National and the culmination of Buicks turbocharged performance era, making these cars some of the most collectible American automobiles of the decade. With just 29,732 actual miles, original paint, factory interior and wheels, extensive supporting documentation, a late 1987 build date, and proven show-winning presentation, this Grand National represents a rare opportunity to own a highly preserved example that can be equally enjoyed at a local show, on a weekend drive, or simply as an important piece of 1980s American performance history.
Price does not include applicable tax, title, license, processing, and/or $240 documentation fees.
