what should I do?

I have the opportunity to buy a pretty clean 87 Grand National, but it would mean I would have to sell my Typhoon. The GN is clean and has 56k and a few mods. My Ty has 150k and is mostly stock, however I have a ton of parts to remedy that. What would you guys do?

I would get the grand national: less headaches, better recognition, superior resale value. How much does he want for it?

Sell your Camaro :D

Lol, can't sell that. Dad bought it new and passed it down, that one is a keeper.

He wants 10k for the GN. I know my ty isn't worth that, but I could put in the difference. Kind of torn right now. Always wanted a GN, but I like the ty.

It's been a few months since I looked at the turbo Buick market, but that seems real cheap. Find a way to buy it. If you are not interested pm me the sellers information.

I too am in the same predicament. I found an 86 T-type that runs 11s for $7000. Have to sell Syclone to buy it though.

Sell the Typhoon and buy the Grand National.

Do it now.

Mine has 56k, too.

The price was low because it was from a friend. Unfortunately, I may have procrastinated too long. He mentioned he was going to put it on eBay if I didn't want it. A few days ago I said I would pass for a few reasons. I spoke with him today and it is on eBay already. He has an offer for more money pending. So I probably missed out

I have an 87 GN. They're amazing vehicles in very high demand. If it really is as described, your Buddy can easily get $15K to $18k for it. Maybe even a few dollars more.

Should have bought it...that was a great friend price! I would like to have a Grand National, but I will probably end up with a T-Type for half the price!

Well, I worked it out and bough it. Now the ty and piles of parts will be for sale. I will start a thread today or tomorrow. Thanks for the input

Beautiful vehicle and you got a great deal! Don't worry about the broken antenna as it happens to all of them. Buy the inside coil wire (it's what makes the power antenna go up and down) $40 bucks and you'll be good. I'll get you the part number and the instructions on how to replace it. Don't think you have to go out and buy the $350 dollar antenna. Also, "OEM for GN" has all the oem parts you'll need. Congratulations!
