Default bought our 22 year old Son a mint 86 GN

Our friend restored this rare 1986 Grand National to perfection. Factory moon roof car and almost every option. Our Son has been after it for years and we surprised him with it Friday after work.. Hes in heaven, have to pass the torch to the young guys, thanks goodness hes not into Hondas.

Do yourself and your son a favor - if those are the original 1987 vintage Eagle GT's, replace them with a set of repo's from Rusty here (goes by Smallhurst on this site) and make sure your son understands how the boost comes on in those cars. If you are not used to that feel it can get you into trouble quickly. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/burnout.gif[/img]

Great car and nice restoration - have fun with it.
