Nice Buick T-Type

[RFR2212]

That's right, this here is a few pics of my buddies Buick T-Type. I believe it's a 1987 3.8L turbo. It's got some nice under hood mods including a stage 2 garrett Turbo (approx 21 psi max), adjustable wastegate, dual fuel pumps, line lock, aux fans, GNX wheels and some more goodies. He hasnt had it at the strip yet, but the last owner had some slips showing it runs low 4's 0-60 and i believe low to mid 12's 1/4mi. He's gonna be doin some work over winter, and you best believe I'll have him out there running it... Lets just say, it's a nice sleeper... People who don't know what it is, are usually in for a big surprise!
