Went through the photo albums. The scanner scans a bit grainy, but you get the idea.

The photos were taken at various Buick GS Nats over the years, held in Bowling Green Kentucky, apart from 1999 when they went to Columbus, Ohio.

First the racing Estate Wagon.

The original 1978 Buick Turbo Sport coupe. In 1978 you could buy four production turbocharged cars in the world; a Porsche, a Saab or two Buicks.

Buick built a fun concept car called the Buick BlackHawk, with a fuel injected 455, and powered roof. If you wonder where Holden got their idea ofr their recent EFy thingie, here you are.

First, Mr Self-Conscious and the BlackHawk's trailer.
