I’m going to attempt to drive this car home, 400 miles. This is a ultra rare 1986 Buick Grand National with a factory turbocharger. These were the fastest production cars produced back in the day. This particular one has been off the road for over 2 decades, so I’m going to see if I can get it running and driving.

I had a 1979 Buick 3.8 turbo with the turbo hood. All white and black interior. It was a sharp car and I got pulled over on I65 by state boys lol
The wind is escaping. 😂🤣😂🤣
Nice car . Wish I had 1 and I was born in 1987
Boo that it could not be driven home, but at least you have it. It does deserve a frame off restoration. Yes, it would take a while but would be so worth it.
My mom bought a 1986 Buick Regal. There was nothing cool about that car. lol
It amazes me how rusty all these vehicles are from up north. I haven’t seen rust in a vehicle here in Texas in 25 years. lol.
"smells like a sweaty shoe filled with dirt and old mayonnaise…. *Sniffs* Not bad"
Yes had the break system go out on my 87… They are a pain in the ass.. Worst part about the hole car.. Still my all time fav car of my era..
I was in high school when these came out and my grandparents bought one, they had no clue what they had. They lived in Michigan and could not keep it on the road in the winter, so they took it to Florida during the winter. I never got to drive in it.
Hey daryl. Great hour of my life. Enjoyed and learned. I wish i had your patience. Did you mention what the purchase price was? Curious. Thanks jim.
Swap the wheels yellow in the black side and black on the yellow side. Should look good. As for ruining a brand. If you buy a object then that object is your property to do with what. You wish
I am a great admirer of your content, but I must respectfully disagree with your opinion on American cars. While I appreciate the classic designs of American cars from the 1960s to the 1990s, I find it difficult to agree that the Grand Nationals and Monte Carlos are the nicest cars ever designed. Although they may not be to my personal taste, I can acknowledge the craftsmanship and engineering that went into their creation.
Wonder how many people don’t understand the Tanya Harding references?😂
Thank you for engaging the audience and asking them to help, this channel is so soothing…
De inlaat van een turbo zuigt toch.
what i learned from these videos is that cars actually can last forever if you take proper care of it! Some parts eventually will wear out and will need replacement but the engine if maintained properly can last a very very long time. People just want a brand new shiny car
what is there to say: 😍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Fuel pump jobs i hate if the tanks has to come down. Lets put bolt holes behind everything so a guy has to mess all the bolt heads up and get rust and sand in his eyes . That should teach him to try and fix somthing.
We have a Rick’s tire here in small town FL!

The Grand National was a beast. The father of a friend of mine had bought back in the day. We had huge fun when we drove it around the Poconos for a day!
That Bobby Allison gokart… 👀❤️🤍
😮😮😮😮😮😮woooow
Wow last comment a year ago. Now I can say 1 year later that I am amazed at this channel!
I don’t work on automobiles. Because I’ll blow myself up.
It’s not a good idea! I’d like to know what you paid for it! I watch for entertainment purposes only
LeAnn Rimes popped up recently on an advert for the Aussie version of "The Voice" – reality TV singing show with the swivel chairs. She looks well.
How come a crafty lawyer doesn’t take the IRS to court. For misleading the American people, about stimulus They work for us. It’s our money, not the government.
Was the hurricane engine broken in ?
Not faster than the Corvette, just quicker in the quarter mile. 😉
Nothing ruffles this dudes feathers
You should carry a jug of Evaporust that you can buy at O’Reilly’s with you to soak the rusty parts in. It’ll remove all rust in a few hours and it’s reusable. They even make a gel for the rust parts you can’t remove to soak.
LOVE THE CHANNEL!!!
Such a great car. I love those. However, my dream truck is an El Camino. I’ve never wanted something so bad. For many reasons. Personal And sentimental. Plus it’s just a super sexy truck. But Grand National would be my 2nd dream car. They’re crazy expensive!
New to your channel. You're a gem! You deserve all your success!
Is it just me or does the Grand National logo look just like the Jiffy Lube logo?
Derrick when are you going to finish your dads old buick? I love that car!!!
A guy I went to HS with has a few of these stuffed in the back of tractor trailers. He’s had them for years… any gear head that’s over 40 (personal over 50) Knows exactly what these cars are. Low or high mileage…. Great find and great car. Good for you bro.
Buick Grand nation was the last cool car Buick ever produced.
I sawr/seen only one flaw in Ken's perfect Grand National…the right and left outer seat back panels have sun exposure fading the black to purple-oidishness. He can Save on those easy in a few minutes. Buy a can of SEM satin black Color Coat vinyl, plastic, carpet spray. Mask off the offensive zones after prep with cleaners then lacquer thinner, dry. Warm up can nice fir no splattered sprayin. Apply mist coats brushed in between coats as be a wroatten on the can substructions! Soon will look all black like the original instead of ugly faded.
If you want todays gasoline to last for YEARS , add 1 oz of 2 stroke oil per gallon and it won't go bad. That old lawn mower starts year after year. 1 OZ of oil per gallon won't trip any codes either. Not even in very expensive high end European cars. I use it in everything I own. From old Chevy's to newer Porsche 911 s. No rebuilding carbs on 4 stroke dirt bikes. Avoid the whole varnishing thing with a little bit of oil. I'm sure you know that trick D.
In great condition, those go for $40,000 🙂
