    Pics of My '87 Regal Special-T (garaged) awaiting D&S Performance Buick 455

    First/all photos; Late last year pics of Regal in the garage prior to removal of original Oldsmobile 307/th200 4-speed tranny/limited slip 308-geared rear, radiator, aftermarket 2-1/4" true-duals w/h-pipe, and drive-shaft.

    Second photo; The 1987 Buick Grand National (red, against wall and front of Regal) nose I had for over 8-years. The body-shop is using this (Buick emblem deleted), and the 1987 Grand National hood (already primed gray at the body-shop right now) I bought with it (paid $200 total for both). The custom aluminum cold-air box "prototype" (Patent Pending & totally finished/shaped now ... and it looks like a mirror:TU:) was first used/tested on the Regal with this Olds 307 V8 @ 2 years ago.

    Last photo; The "uuuuggg-lee" Pontiac steering wheel came with the Regal when I bought it (notice my rigged horn), but the entire interior sands floor carpeting was/is PERFECT. The dash is digital ... and spotless. The floor carpeting will be replaced next month ($$$ running looooooow). The AutoMeter tachw/shift-lite wasn't bolted nor wired at the time of that pic ... same position I had it in my last two Pee-Gee455Regals.:TU:

    Next month, I order the B&M Quicksilver shifter (I already have special plans of installing it to look factory).

    Thanks for your time again. Have a good evening. :TU:

    Thanks for the interior thumbs-up. This is the first Regal I own that look this good inside, sands the floor carpeting in the front (I had a 1981 V6 in 1988 ... first saw 1987 Buick Grand National that year, in 1984 I bought a Regal with a Chevy 305 (Marshal took it for $650 worth of parking tickets I gained in NYC), then I bought a 1985 with V6 taken out for $185 ... my 1st Buick 455 Regal project car ... Scotty at Pee-Gee's in Brooklyn at the time built that 455 as I excitedly watched him, that Regal burned 2 years later to the ground due to leaking tranny fluid that ignited under-hood, then a 1987 (pic attached) charcol-gray Regal w/307 Olds motor for $500 and put the Pee-Gee 455 in that (after Marvel mystery oil, new plugs/wires/distributor/air cleaner) with the GN rear with 3.73's and stock th400 3-speed tranny and true 2-1/2" duals.

    Lastly, the air-cleaner box in the pic was the aluminum prototype I invented/Patented for Buick 455 Regal set-ups ... and it works on ANY carbed-automobile and ANY carb-type MPFI system as well. The new/rounded, polished FINAL model will be displayed early this summer at www.nas-tech-engineering.com

    Thanks again for the Regal interior comment.
    Have a good one.
