Trying to sell this for my son :not a Porsche" but really cool!
Anyone know anyone that maybe interested in this ?
I purchased and built the Buick about 1.5 years ago after I sold my son my 928s Porsche when he moved to Denver. I built this car as a toy and ending up selling it to my son about 9-months ago "I purchased my old Porsche 928s back from him after he realized what it costs to maintain a Porsche. His job takes him all over Florida and now with a promotion he will be traveling the U.S his condominium association says he must move it he can’t have two vehicles on site. He bought a Mitsubishi Evolution-9 for his daily driver and needs to sell this Buick. I was the third owner and put a ton of money and time into this Buick. I have all the receipts and the final step was to get this on a dyno to tune this beast. It runs rich on WOT and it requires a dyno run and chip burn to dial in the equipment that was added. If you want a really fast, original, car that everything is done this is for you. I will accept offers but $6,500 is a good point to start talking he will be bringing it over my house this week where it can be viewed. The motor was rebuilt by the previous owner parts are listed below. Original owner was 65 when he sold this to me and had it for 14 years. Car is Gold with Tan interior, the rear seat has never been used everything works and the total interior is in great shape. Body has a couple of spots that needs to be attended to but paint looks like new. The Speedo shows 6.5 K since rebuild and has less than 100K on chassis.
Pictures and Pdf of all parts and receipts sent if you contact me!

The T-types truly defined "Sleeper" in their days.. The GN's were mean looking day one. But the T-type looked like my mother's buick, until you hit the gas.
Neat car.

Whats wild about this car unless you looked at the Drag Radials you would never know. It smokes most cars on the road and gets good mileage and rides like a dream, nice air and comfy.

*Because* it's ugly!
These things are serious stop-light killers..... and totally undercover. Not that the standing start is the 928's strong point, and one of these Buicks is going to start to really wallow around at about 90mph, but one of these will smoke most 928s from the light. And that's stock.
A nice, lame-looking Buick T-type is a ricekiller extraordinaire. Just don't show up with one at the local bracket races and expect to make any money because everyone there will already know!
