Pokey 5.0 · 09-03-2002, 08:27 PM

after 6 1/2 yrs of ownership and assembly, ive decided that its time to start over. this time i think i im gonna try building a sleeper. but fear not IM NOT BUYING A RICER!!!!!!!!!!

Hammer · 09-03-2002, 11:02 PM

Three Words:

Buick Grand National

Most kids down here have absolutely NO idea what it is....

tireburner163 · 09-03-2002, 11:09 PM

yea....I agree with Hammer....kids now a days have no clue what a G/N is.

jj_jonathon · 09-03-2002, 11:23 PM

ohhhhh I do....my dad wouldnt let me get one though...too much punch for me he says...prolly right...im still building fast car experience...those things can look very very nice....i just hate those stock rims...*bleh*...theres one that rides around my hometown, very very nice....weld wheels (overdone, but they still look nice on the GN)...ive seen one GNX before too....i saw him ahead in traffic, screamed in the 5.0 (when i was driving it) to catch up to him just to look at it up close...his passenger looked over at me, gigled and they took off like a bat outta hell...lol...ill never forget that day....beautiful cars...*sniff*

EDIT: oh and the reason that kids nowadays dont know about them is probably because there arent too many of them and they were only made for 2-3 years in the 80s....you know...when I was in diapers...lol

Grand National = Awesome sleeper!!! And I like the stock wheels

joe4speed · 09-04-2002, 01:59 AM

Grand Nationals ARE sweet! I've always wanted one!

Pokey 5.0 · 09-04-2002, 06:44 PM

around here GN's are very common and the 2 things they all share are:

1. they all look just as stock as they did when they were first bought

2. theyre all faster than ill ever be! (theres a handful here that run 10-teen's on a drag radial. brrrrrrrrrrr)

needless to say i learned my lesson tryin to race one of them, it was the whippin ive ever takin in my car.

foxbodied · 09-04-2002, 09:36 PM

Hell yea grand nationals are ill. Ultimate sleeper. Well a pinto would make a good sleeper 2 haha.

Grand National a sleeper??

I think not. They are easily identifiable and everybody knows how fast they are. Wheres the "sleeper" aspect?

1969Mach1 · 09-08-2002, 12:51 AM

Yeh, I don't think GN are sleepers. I guess to unknowledged people but really paint any car yellow and it looks fast paint it a crappy colour and people think it's slow. Not to say black is crappy but doesn't give that 'fast' look. Build a caprice or something... lol Maybe a Tempo... lol
