You should see them at T&T nights at the strip. There'll be 8-10 GNX's running almost any given night.

8 gnx's? you sure about that? GN's maybe...

this one has a little done under the hood. enough to give me the biggest grin ive had in a while. sounds ridiculous.

and he also has a silver buick t-type that has run 8.6's at our 1000' foot track.

Nope, GNX's. Like I said there's 5 just within about a mile of my house. Probably because there's a local guy who restores them then resells em. But yeah, Western PA has a HUGE concentration of them.

this is the car that started the "tuner" revolution. the svo's and some others were involved, but THIS was and still is one of the most bad ass forced induction cars ever made.

Buick built a grand total of 547 GNX's, Dealerships never had 5 of them in stock at any given time so you can see why some of us are finding dificulty in that claim. Having worked for Buick back in then and being 1 of only 2 techs in the shop even allowed to work on them I can tell you those cars were BAD ASSED! That car woke up most musclecar guys to what a turbo on a smaller engine could really do.
