1987 Buick Regal Additional Info:
Up for sale is my 1987 Buick Regal WE4 Turbo T. This is a rare lighter version of the Grand national.
See my description below. This Car is in good condition.
Body:
The body is in good shape with a decent paint job. There are chips here and there. There is some flaking on some of the edges. There are also a few door dings here and there. There is no rust on the car.
Drivetrain:
The car is mechanically sound.The mileage says 67000, but I cannot confirm.I just installed a complete new posi rearend in it. The old one was making noise. All the internals were replaced professionally. It is a HD unit with stock gear ratio. It also has new moser axles.
The transmission works as it should. It shifts well. The engine runs great. It has a few modifications. It currently is running 18lbs of boost.It runs hard and will break the tires loose through 2nd gear.
Interior:
The interior is in decent shape. There are a few rips and worn areas. The dash has a couple of small cracks.
Overall this is a good car for the money.
In 1987, a lightweight WE4 (Turbo T) option was offered. Only 1,547 of this variant were produced. The differences between a WE4 and the Grand National were the interior trim package, wheels, exterior badging, aluminum bumper supports, and aluminum rear brake drums as opposed to the Grand National's cast iron, making the WE4 a lighter and faster car. The rear spoiler was only available as a dealer installed option. 1987 was the only year that the LC2 Turbo option was available on any Regal, making it possible to even see a Limited with a vinyl landau roof and a power bulge turbo hood. Turbo Regal Limiteds were one of the rarest models of Turbo Regals produced second only to the GNX at 1,035 Turbo Limiteds. Turbo Regal Limiteds could be ordered with many options with most having chrome external trim but for $35 could have been built with the full black-out trim option making them extremely rare. Limiteds were treated to a very luxurious interior with plush carpeting and optional bench pillow seats and a column shift. The 1987 model would be the end of the manufacture of the RWD "G-Body" Regal, but GM had to extend the build of the Grand National to meet customer demand into December.
