The Roadster Shop custom built, Twin-Turbo Buick hits the streets for the first time with GN owner Scott as passenger. After a few pulls with our own Jeremy Gerber, he's quick to get behind the wheel and gets a taste of what this monster Wegner Automotive, boosted 427 LS7 motor is capable of!

One of the nicest Buick Grand National I've ever seen. 👍🏁
Fr
Absolutely! Stunningly gorgeous ride!
Those wheels are perfection!
The stance and the way the rear is sitting on the wheels is perfection 👌🏽
I'm in lust😎
Absolutely gorgeous. That wheel fitment is impeccable
Yes... that meaty tuck (no homo) in the rear arches is ridic.
iT SURE IS!!!
Love that stock design
The best Grand National ever got everything right power and looks. Phenomenal the owner has great taste
Congratulations to the new owner!! RS y’all done it again and will always be a fan of your work!!!
Brought the little kid right out of that owner! That’s awesome!
It's my favorite build that I've seen in years. You guys knocked it out of the park with this one!
9.5/10 I'm drooling over hamdsome GN BUT the flaired wheel wells.....not so much IMO
You guys should out a window in the conrwr so we can see the Gages I wanna see How fast y'all are going
COME ON, how about a little video showing the engine and frame. PLEASE! 😁 Awesome car! Well done!
More vids on this coming soon - check out the build gallery in the meantime! 🤘
For so many years this is exactly how ive always wanted to do a "grand national", v8 twin turbo, those wheels and stance, lightning rods (color matched)... even right down to the twin turbo 8 emblems ive had in my head. Perfect. Chefs kiss 😘
A couple of my buddies bought new GN's back in the day. I owned a GMC Syclone as well. Awesome cars for the time. This car is badass as well, and the stance is perfect. Though for me, these cars are meant to be Turbo V6 cars. That's why they are legends.
I just bought an ‘84 hot air T Type. I’m really torn between keeping it a Turbo 6 or going with a turbo 5.3 LS. It’s a tough choice !
@@walkthnyt2000LS is cheaper easier and more reliable
@@-thebatman- I hear ya Batman. I just gotta have that Turbo six sound. When I was street racing them back in the day with my 5.0 Mustang they were my worst enemy. I hear they’re inconsistent and problematic but I can’t put a V8 in one. I’m dropping an inter ooled 86-87 conversion in mine.
Beautiful GN, that stance is right on. Love hearing those turbos.
Working for Buick for decades 70-‘90 I was proud of the GN & GNX. I owned a 70 GS stage II, which ate everything it raced, but the GN’s were in a different world.
What a build!! Hats off to all involved
Stunning. I'm out of adjectives to describe how incredible your cars are. Roadster Shop sets the benchmark for modern street machines. Congratulations on another incredible product. P.S.: would appreciate a walk around in your videos featuring the engine, interior, suspension. You do an incredible job featuring the build process on your website, but it would be icing on the cake to see a minute or two on the details within the videos. Thanks so much for posting these up.
Detailed overview coming soon.
@@RoadsterShop Love the car.. What is the cost and build time.. Thanks
Will you see car @@RoadsterShop
Great to see an owner so happy with their car. Such a bad ass ride. Hope he has many miles of enjoyment.
From cool cruiser to evil bitch with a slight push of the go pedal…you guys killed it on this one!!
Love the wider factory wheels
This build is breathtaking(literally, based on the ride along reactions :) ). Well done, RS.
Anything connected to the roadster shop is going to be world class
Love that whistle. Congrats Scott!
That's what I love and wait to hear for, that whistle almost like a jet 🛩️.
Wow wow wow! Just insanely beautiful! Nice AP and Bluezy.👏👏
If I ever win the lottery, I'll be having you guys build me something! Unbelievably beautiful build!
This was $800,000
So sick, that dash cluster is so rad!!!!!
I love it, it’s the best running, and looking GN that I’ve seen. Best of luck with it!
LOVE that turbo sound!!
This is my favorite Buick grand national entire world. It looks awesome. Sounds awesome 😎
This is hands down the best Grand National ever built. Absolutely insane. Perfection. Well done to all involved👌🏻
Incredible job, possibly the best G--body build ever. Absolutely love everything about it, right down to doubling up the original turbo 6 logo to represent the twin turbos, well done. I bought an '87 T-type just after high school and I still miss it. Please post more video highlighting the engine, suspension and wheels. Congrats to the shop and also to the owner, killer build
Absolutely the most bad ass GN ever, amazing build. The stance, the wheels, interior , the screens so well integrated . What an amazing car.
Beautiful GN, that stance is right on. Love hearing those turbos.. More reaction vids with this thing!.
Need to see much more of/about this car!!!! Amazing
Saw this incredible build in person at Goodguys in Columbus, Ohio!! Such an amazing car!
Everything's on the car is perfect. Stance, color, lightning rods, power and got to love all the smiles it creates.
What a truly incredible build. Will always love the look of these cars. Great job, team. much respect. Would love you guys to see the wife and I backyard, hehehe. None are done, but we are working on them.
Unbelievable attention to detail and the engineering is amazing 👏 Perfect 😍
Probably the coolest GN in the world right now.
I have always been, and am still in awe of this car!
WOW! Love it! Amazing build!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I love this build. Already one of the best looking cars of the 80s and they took the look and capability to another level. You can tell the Roadster shop guys take a ton of pride in engineering, development and usability.
Wow. RS= 🏆Greatest G-Body ever REMADE. You guys knocked this out of the Universe. Every little detail from the engine sticker notes about pedestrians to the interior screens. just.. EVERYthing. OMG i want those screens! Hands down one of the greatest builds i have seen in ages
This is such a beautiful Grand National Restomod ...great build👍👍
I saw this vid and now searching for one. That thing looks incredible 👌
Love seeing 80's cars with a modern makeover.
HANDS DOWN THE BEST ONE I'VE SEEN.
You guys always do great work but this one hands down is my favorite. 80’s American Muscle at it’s scary best!
Thanks for the video definitely appreciated!!
Love it! A monster, a well done one at that. Love the new turbo 8 logo made from two original turbo 6's!
I just saw the AutotopiaLA video...GREAT video to show off the car. I would love to see videos like that of ALL your builds. I LOVE your work, very classy, not over the top, always respecitng the origin and origional design of each car. I'll probably never be able to afford a build but I love what you do and you and the owners drive and discuss the vehicles. WELL DONE!
The look on that man’s face says it all you guys should be very proud
Those cars are beautiful and so classy. That being said... Holy Crap ! Can't get any better.
Hands down the coolest GN build ever, and that’s coming from someone that has been in one since 1986
Wow, that truly is a work of art 🎨 👏
The wheel fitment can possibly get any better! Dang!
First time seeing you guys and I love it. I owned a gn and wish I still had it and the $$ to do this. It doesn’t matter how much hp, what matters is how big the smile is on the owner. That tells me everything. I was smiling from ear to ear watching the owner’s experience
SO much POWER so little tire 🙂 Serously wicked Buick! Dam good job of keeping it looking right!
More reaction vids with this thing!
Just an incredible build. The attention to detail is stunning. I've been reading and watching every video I can of this car, and I keep finding more and more little details that make the build what it is. If I win the lotto, I think I'll be dropping off a GMC Syclone to see what the artists at the RS come up with.
Those wheels are so sick !!!
these fellas are the very best in the world ! It's like they can make you anything you want.
Another Killer fuckin build by the Roadster Shop! Damn guys it never disappoints, everything you guys do is amazing and over the top in quality and design.
ABSOLUTE BEAUTY!!!
Words can’t even describe this car 😮😮😮😮
Yea buddy they finally supped up a grocery getter and turned it up10 notches from Buicks measly intention. A 427 with twin turbos and 1600 hp. That's beyond supercar. Man didn't think a G-body would sit like I desired it in my GNX mental mock-ups. Low as hell with carved out fenders to use full height and width of those original flares. RS molded the flares into the design and filled in the wheel wells perfectly. right motor, right boosted, right stance. My Monte Carlo has a 5" drop in rear and 2" dropped spindles on 15x8 + 15x10 w/245/60 (f) and 275/60 (r). Sits nasty but no where as nasty as this rocket. Excellent craftsmanship Jeremy and crew.
How was Buick’s intention “measly”? The 86-87 GNs were fastest US production cars those two years and you could spend $1500 and get 12 seconds back in late 80s.
That is Amazing. Looks Sick and sounds insane.
That thing is badass bro! My guy has a nice watch too!
That is the Best GN I’ve EVER seen
Dream setup, man that dude has an amazing car. Absolutely beautiful. Wow
Damn that stance and wheel combo..Magnificent.. shifter dope.....
this thing just... looks damn perfect, wow
That stance is just mesmerizing
builder wearing a Rolex owner wearing a dearer watch. inspiration for all
I love the stance on it ,I love the 1600 hp love this car….. next to a 1964 Chevy impala SS convertible,this 1987 Buick grand national are my dream cars
I remember back in my racing days the Grand Nationals were always hard to beat
My dream car as a kid and still on my list! That baby is too sweet!! 🤙🏼
Amazing. What a machine. I remember when they came out. Even as a kid in ‘87, we knew, future CLASSIC. And it is. What’s on the back, 315’s ? That’s some wide rubber.
That's what you call a real quality badass built !
Awesome build
Dope dope dope!! Never seen a lighting shifter in a gn 🔥
Clean ass ride brother! 👍
That GN is crazy and BADA$$ 🔥
Now I when I comment I usually talk a little smack but let me tell you this car right here impressed me a lot. Absolute beast 💪💪💪. Great job guys👍👍👍👍👍
My HIGH SCHOOL PHYSICS TEACHER had one..... He ripped it every day after school out the parking lot 😂... he was teaching about friction coefficient...on the asphalt 😂
Love them old Grand Nationals!Back in the day best i could afford at the time was an new 86 Iroc-z Camaro.
If I had a GN I’d literally go all the way to to Illinois from California to have it built by tht same team. Every detail about this car is mind blowing!! 🤯
What a build, I want that car.
No matter your age...if you are into cars, HP's will always bring smiles and laughter 😂
That is one BADASS Buick!!!
Nice watch *edit watches bros 👌🏼I hope it's (their)the real deal (👑AP)as is that awesome GN 💙🇦🇺
Cool as hell car and very cool owner. Enjoy that GNX in good health. Long live car culture!!
Love how it has the lightning rod shifter
I’m super jealous rn 😳. G bodies are an icon of my birth years.
Amazing car. Never seen a shifter like that
Gorgeous. Simply gorgeous.
Thanks for sharing
Absolutely gorgeous!!
That's the baddest GRAND NATIONAL IVE EVER SEEN , DAMN !!! SHE BAD !!!
Perfection. Well done
The Vette Killer. I was in high school when these cars came out, only the kids with parents with money had them. They were very nice cars. 80's muscle
