The Grand National didn't come in anything but black. However, you could get

a regular Buick T -Type with the Grand National performance goodies on it in

other colors. As for beating one in a drag race............Forget it. 
Especially this one:

First:  JEEEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZUUUUUUSSSSS!!!  That thing is nutty (not to
mention smoky).  I was giggling pretty darn loudly here in the orifice as
soon as I spied them twin T's popping up through the hood.  Love it...

Second:  I'm relatively positive the Grand National could also be had in a
dark-ish silver / gray.  My neighbor's bud had one, don't think it was a
badge engineered T-Type.  Was when they were new, had the full interior,
everything.  Including that wonderful 85mph speedo...

Third:  there was an old Pontiac station wagon, wood paneling, etc. @ NE
Drags 2 years ago...  ran low 12s with a GN motor.  Quite funny to watch...

-Paul also dig the Darth Vader GN's K.
