The Buick Grand Sports were fast from the factory.

^^ Reminds ya of a 60's era Chevelle or even a Olds 442 ^^

That's a '69. Fortunately those were rare. Remember, they didn't have 'Buick' engines.
They dropped Hi-Perf Oldsmobile big-blocks into those like they were bubble-gum.
Remember the Olds engines were used to slinging 6000 pound yachts around.
That 400 Olds engine that ran on 100 octane premium leaded gas could hand you an ***-whipping real quick.
Those engines were monsters, 4-foot wide from valve cover to valve cover and intake runners you could toss a tennis ball thru.

Like the Cutlass, they were bad-*** sleepers.
"You got outrun by a Buick!!!":lol:
The only bad news: 8-10 MPG on premium.

Here's another one.

Yeah, that one's on my 'do not race' list.

 

[threetango]

the only time I took it to the drag strip.

Minor mods, air intake and tune.

Hey, I may be a redneck, but I'm not stupid.
11.4 in the quarter, really good time slip.

Remember when cars were for more than just driving somewhere?
From the politically incorrect advertisements of the past:

I plead guilty.
You ain't doing that in a Honda!

Much impressed with the retro dragster behind it:

Back when real men drove dragsters. If an engine blew, they were peppered with parts, oil, and flames coming off of it.

Saw one at my local dragstrip back in in '04. Had a good pic going until his Mrs stepped in:bang Head::

It could definitely haul *** too, notice nobody's racing him below:

(Pictures were taken with a real film camera, this was before digital)
