1987 Buick Regal Description

FOR SALE - 87 Turbo T, Rare WE4 (1547 made, one year only, according to Buick: fastest turbo buick after GNX, which I think is bullshit, but..). with a Clean title & Carfax. 60k miles $22,000 OBO (be reasonable with offers, I have no problem paying my mortgage and don't have any more kids on the way, at least not that I know of)
This car lived most of its life in Delaware, owned by an older couple until 1995 and then an elderly gentleman until I got it in 2012. He couldn't drive it and enjoy it anymore. This car has been well cared for its entire life and is an original 59k mile car.
All work performed by Jim Dunn & Ed @ Buick Turbo Performance from the day I got it to present, with some Turbo work and tuning by Bison.
The car has gone a best of 12.3 at 114 mph with this combo on pump gas/alky with drag radials at conservative 22lbs of boost.It's not a drag race car, but I usually run it once a year at Cecil County, MD. It's a big East Coast Buick gathering.
