Century Turbo

[Downtown]

I found a 1980 4-door Century Limited w/Turbo. Anyone have feel for production numbers of this car?

Thanks,

Kenny Brown

It looks as though there isn't really a clear number for the number produced, but here is a complete (as can be) list of production numbers for the carb'd turbo cars.

I've never seen any numbers for the non coupe models. Many years ago I even called the general managers office at Buick Motor Division and the answer I got was they didn't keep track of numbers, which was BS because the federal government requires them to. If you do find them make sure and post them here. Does yours still run? And is it unmolested? I've only seen 1 79 4-door(the ugly hatchback one) and there used to be a black 80 sedan running around my neighborhood. The numbers must be low as compared to the coupes and Regals other wise I would think I would have seen a few more. Also have you checked the VIN to make sure it is a real turbo. I cant imagine anyone making a clone of a 4 door.

I was looking at that....I think it is a Lesabre Sport Coupe. Kinda looks like these.
