Kevin Hart's 1987 Buick Grand National features Blackwing power and a wild exterior. Check it out at SEMA.
The Meguiar's booth at the SEMA show isn't the only place comedian and actor Kevin Hart is combining cars and cinema, hisbrooding in the car care products pen. Hart bought a 1987 Buick GNX last year and put it on Instagram with the caption,"Sundays are perfect for old school drives…. If you know you know." Looks like old G-Bodies are perfect for restomod builds, too, which we all already knew, but this car isn't the GNX that featured on social media.
Going back to work with regular collaborators Dave Salvaggio of Salvaggio Design and Sean Smith, of course there's a lot involved in the overhaul. Still, we appreciate how the team stayed true to the ethos of the Grand National in ways that made the build more complicated than it already was. Take the engine. The original came with a 3.
Elsewhere, Salvaggio did the same here as with the Michael Myers Road Runner, creating a custom frame to increase rigidity and get the car closer to the ground on its 19-inch HRE wheels in the Buick's original weave look. Maintaining the ride, a Detroit Speed suspension manages the front axle, a four-link Panhard puts in overtime keeping the rears on the ground.
