  1. Ryan congrats on getting such a beautiful factory fresh GN! They are out there ones you can mod that are not so nice I drive by this garage were I can see one in the back yard. But you have the best of the best there good luck with it!

  2. 87 wasn’t the first year of the GN. Even wasn’t the first year that was intercooled. 86 was intercooled, before that they weren’t intercooled. 84 was the first year of FI. Before that was carbureted regal turbo or TType

  3. Love those 87 granny's…that one looks super clean…my pops bought 1 back in 87 ..he since passed and my brother now has it rotting away in his garage in florida..ive tired many times to buy it from him but he refuses to let it go

  4. Back in the 80's a young guy that worked in a fab shop where I was at the time bought a Grand National brand new. He carried on about how bad the car was to the point we were tired of hearing about it. My coworker (Eddie Tanner) bought and restored old vehicle's on the side at home. Eddie drove a old 304 V8 4 speed CJ 5 Jeep to work the following Friday. We all left to cash our paychecks at lunchtime and by chance we ended up side by side at a traffic light with the young Grand National guy. Eddie told the young man to hit it when the light changed. I swear that old CJ 5 went air born when Eddie popped the clutch. I was holding on to the grab bar (NO SEAT BELT'S) and saw the highway through the rusted out floorboard then looked up to see the speedometer buried. I turned my head looking back and we left the Grand National like it was stuck in the mud. I then proceeded to yelling "back out of it Eddie you got him"!!!!
    Just thought I'd share that with you guy's. They are nice cars but avoid those old V8 Jeeps, so you can keep your chin up. LOL

  5. Don't forget 75, 76 Porsche turbo Carrera.
    My friend was a Connecticut state trooper he said they ran the Grand Nationals as interceptors but they limited the top speed to 122 mph because of stability issues.
