It's an 82 Regal that was a column shift v-6 in it's original color Redwood. 73 Buick Century GS350 rebuilt. Complete Burgundy interior from an 86 Regal Limited ... almost 300 hours in the total build... It drives tight and never runs over 180 degrees. Just got a 83 AC condenser from Brain at GBodyParts to completely finish it... Should have it nice and cold by the time the temps drop into the 60's here in SC... :laugh:
Looks great! Sure it turns a lot of heads! Be cool to see someday in person. Looks like it was built like that. Good imagination! :3gears: :beer :beer
I have put the speedo in since, but its too hot to go out and photo it! Its fairly damaged, so I made a dash mat too
ahh bugger it. here they are. I burnt my feet too. OWOWOWOWWOWOW it needs some work to fit the surrounds, as they are broken, but it all takes time. Lie my dash mat? :laugh:
Well since I now can put antique tags on it I will post my little mule. She a 1984 Century wagon and was a sub frame off complete restoration and many, many up grades the even my son thinks is cool :bglasses:.
!977 Buick Electra Limited 2DR Sedan.403 "corporate motor" Nos all match Currently 81K . When I bought it in 2001 it had 72K on it. Ive replaced the headliner, drivers door armrest, water pump, fuel pump, carbuerator, 2 tires and had it repainted. The best part is I bought the car for $700.00. Dan
Thanks Hector. I saw your car in one of the previous pages...... very nice!. In fact after seeing your car , thats when I decided to post mine. I was also thinking about a set of torque thrust Ds for my 69 Dodge convertible. After seeing how good they look on your car .... Im thinking about them for the Buick now too :beer Dan
Here are some pics of the progress with my Regal http://s177.photobucket.com/albums/w204/83rgl/Regal/
I live on the westside off wilson and 70 but I drive my car daily everywhere. My brother-in-law lives off 161 and forest hills also. You might have seen it up there
Well if I see you again, I'll honk. I'll either be in my blue 95 neon or my brown 73 Regal. Do you ever go to any of the local cruise-ins?
I usually go and look around. I havent had my car to one yet. Maybe we can get together sometime and go to a show. I usually go to the race tracks in the summer and race my Regal.
