Featured Car - Jeff Water's 1987 Grand National

You think he'd race you?

This is a picture of Jeff's Grand National and it certainly makes a statement! The car is a 1987 GN with the original motor that has never been apart with only 56,000 miles. Jeff's car has roll up windows and manual seats, which is unusual, since most of the cars were pretty decked out (they are BUICKS after all!) The car is only driven a couple times a year now, but I'm sure it's driven to win!
