Well I love my Buicks and I sold my old t-type and got a Chevelle then sold that and the wife got me this 92 GMC Typhoon I like it its a fun truck but I have decided Id rather have another t-type or GN or maybe a Fox body Mustang, or I have always wanted a 68-69 Firdbird or even a 68-73 Nova 
that runs the same #'s or faster and has to have a back seat but a roll cage is ok
This is a 10's second truck with just a bit more boost and tuning!
This ty is #1606 mods are below. It went 11.42 at 116 mph with a crapy 60 foot of 1.94 with a low boost (5psi) launch so there is more in the truck
Trade value is $16,500 so Im looking for something of like value in a T or GN I do prefer white Turbo t's I dont care if they are t-tops or not
Needs to have a good build on the engine and at least a 67mm Ball Bearing turbo and a built trans. Roll Cage is also ok but has to have a full interior as I do have 2 boys to put in the back
