- 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😎
Love seeing 80's cars with a modern makeover.
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! 🤘
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
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!! 🤯
From cool cruiser to evil bitch with a slight push of the go pedal…you guys killed it on this one!!
I love it, it’s the best running, and looking GN that I’ve seen. Best of luck with it!
Thanks for the video definitely appreciated!!
That stance is just mesmerizing
God I would love to own that!!! Wish it was mine!
Dope dope dope!! Never seen a lighting shifter in a gn 🔥
love that sloppy door closing sound at 3:25....brings me back to 87'.
Tell the owner to bring it to the GS Nationals in May!!!
Owner is cool as shit! Hook me up with a job , I’m trying to live that life bro
I've seen those things stand on the rear bumper at drag races years ago
Great video!
All Smiles!
Fuck ya! Friggin beast! Nice job man!
who is Scott and what does he do? is this guy Scott Davis of GN (the hearing aid company???) great video, he looks like he loves the car. this is his 3rd car from RS...this guy is living the dream!! (which is why im curious who he is and what he does)
1987 came rushing back! 5th grade all over again lol.
DDDAAAMMMNNN! This is Clean Clean Clean! Thank you
Beautifuly done!!
I don't know if you guys have heard of donkmaster, but I'd love to see the owner race him
Love those wheels
guys guys guys, this is my dream ride, perfect looking gn w incredible power, control, looks, and drivability,,,,,,, what does something like this cost to build? (I know if you need to ask)
Money well spent priceless
I love this 🚗💨👏👍
If i owned that i couldnt imagine the hours id spend just looking at it
When he’s ready to sell it,let me know!
Smiles per gallon. 😊
Holy shit..subbed!!
insane! awesome!
Is there a build series on this car?
Bitchin! Stanced perfectly
I would have it as a sleeper without the roll cage
Hot fucking damn this car is clean and sweet hot damn!
Play I like that car but I wish I had the motor and transmission in my Firebird
goodjob!!!
The Dodge Challenger Demon is 800 HP. This is basically TWICE that!!!! Anyone who's driven the Demon must know the insanity of 1,600 HP. Kudos to you!
I want to know start to finish how much $$$$ did this cost?
the monster
It will brake traction alittle 😂 bit.... damn........❤ 🔥
Lol he’s a sailer isn’t he? 😅
This is a fun motherfucker, right here. Best line ever. This car is beautiful.
When is the review video coming? @roadstershop
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
I got a 1987 with 80 k miles and would never change it and usually don't like one been changed to LS but this thing is done right on the money If I had money I would have one done like this !!!!!!!! You guys hit it outta the park !
The best Grand National ever got everything right power and looks. Phenomenal the owner has great taste
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
Lemme just shift one of my many knobs here... BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAm 200mph's in 3 seconds lol
Congratulations to the new owner!! RS y’all done it again and will always be a fan of your work!!!
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.
More reaction vids with this thing!
V8 burto national is just better🍻
You guys always do great work but this one hands down is my favorite. 80’s American Muscle at it’s scary best!
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
Not your Grandma's BUICK.
Nice watch *edit watches bros 👌🏼I hope it's (their)the real deal (👑AP)as is that awesome GN 💙🇦🇺
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.
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 😂
That is probably one of the best builds that i ever seen...Can you give out some info on the suspension that is used?
Full Roadster Shop FAST TRACK IRS chassis
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
Probably the coolest GN in the world right now.
The wheel fitment can possibly get any better! Dang!
builder wearing a Rolex owner wearing a dearer watch. inspiration for all
If I ever win the lottery, I'll be having you guys build me something! Unbelievably beautiful build!
@charlieb308 Whoa! I was way off.
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.
I want it.
Brought the little kid right out of that owner! That’s awesome!
Love that whistle. Congrats Scott!
That's what I love and wait to hear for, that whistle almost like a jet 🛩️.
no offense to kevin hart but this is the grand national that deserved all the attention his got. ive been searching youtube since SEMA for a video of this car other than some fucking short!!! this made my day inside out upside down and all the fuck around. does whatever stand alone youre running help with traction. stock grand nationals blow the tires off yet this animal is so savage yet you'd think this g body would self destruct itself with 1600hp. thats a testament to the guys a Roadster Shop. one of the top 5 shops in the world and i grew up with boyd braking all the boundaries. to the owner : you must have grapefruit size balls my friend, you obviously know you want the baddest mofo G.N. ever created. i mean that with every once of my being. never as a grand national looked so aggrssive will keeping true to it being a g.n.. no gnxshit. the rear tires when looking at it riding 1 car lenght back is unfathomable.its fucking epic. street machin ofthe year as fr as im concerned. badass mutha fucker!!! cheers
I totally disagree they strip the soul out of it by putting in a V8. I mean think about what's the first thing you think about when you hear Grand national? Turbo v6
@@markroberts9225 brotheri feel you but the world has shifted yom radically that to build a 1600hp g.n. a 3.8 would become too much to daily
@@markroberts9225 but when i had a 500hp blown fox you would never do that to a g.n. because that bueatifl 6could ter me up with less hp for cheaper. normally i can accept that stuff inonly certain things
@@markroberts9225 its got to be a project so mega that cutting up a no.'s matched car is ok or do it in kool cars that arent worth fixing the o.e. motor- rx7's, 911sand restomods. i dig your passionand you right!
😂😂 only 1,600 horsepower put it back in the garage put it back put it back Buck Potter TH-cam channel that Cars too soft😅😅
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.
Love the wider factory wheels
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
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!
Beautiful, aggressive,and straight up GNarly!! If you lined up 12 of the greatest cars ever built along side this masterpiece I'd pick this one 11 times out of 12. Good show RS!!!
Hell yeah. ..... Mind blowing 🤯 .... Cool 😊...... Greetings from india 🤘🏻👌🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I can only imagine the conversion $$$$.
Lots of cabbage!
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
Beautiful GN, that stance is right on. Love hearing those turbos.
The looks like he knows nothing about cars other than I want to cool in a cool car. Great build
It's cars like this that make me regret being born in the wrong part of the world, where we didn't get these type rides!
Its about money not the wrong country
@@fuelbasti bingo! Nobody I know owns anything like this....utube, the stuff fantasies are made of.
Love it! A monster, a well done one at that. Love the new turbo 8 logo made from two original turbo 6's!
Best looking G-Bodys' ever made👌...
Absolutely beautiful build but just another souped up regal, grand national badges should have come off with the V6. I get the LS platform is so reliable and so potent but it just isn’t a GN without the V6. But the stance of the car is byfar one of the nicest if not the nicest I’ve ever seen. Glad the owner is happy! That’s all that matters!
I agree
The perfect 80's cars doesn't ex......... nevermind
Fuck yes!!
That is one BADASS Buick!!!
If I happen to have a buick regal in pretty good condition that I wanted to turn into something like this, how much money are we talking?
50k?
100k?
I cant even begin to speculate, but I saw the AutotopiaLA vid on this car and you guys put a ton of hours and craftsmanship into every sq inch of this car.
Its so damn impressive, Its kinda of unreal how smooth and quiet it is even in beast mode
But seriously how much?!?!!?
you know ballpark figure
things got to be on 345 r888r's or wider
Should be a 30 minute video.
More to come!
It ain't a grand nation without a v6.
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
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.
This is my favorite Buick grand national entire world. It looks awesome. Sounds awesome 😎
I get why owners swap in turbo v8s but with a no expense spared build like this would have been rad to go with a crazy, over the top twin turbo v6 build just to stay true to the general architecture.
Think Trailblazer SS AWD...
Lightning rod shifters even 😊
I love how they fabricated stock style rims to fit 305 or 315 rubber
