  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Hey everyone, I'm new here and kinda new to buicks (not cars). I might be buying an 83 Regal limited coupe soon but I know nothing about them. Please give me all the info about these cars as possible. The car has been modified (one of the reasons I might buy it over a Mustang which is what I would get otherwise:grin: ). The only mods are chrome 150 spoke 18's with 235 Kuhmo's (sp.?), limo tint, deep purple paint job, and a full system...so nothing really done to the body..suspension..engine ect. Thnx in advance

    the 80's regal & cultass supreme (upto 87,88) were great cars . they looked almost identical . mine was a 1981 cutlass supreme brougham . loved it . no problems at all . had 108000 kilometres (~68000 miles) . was rustproofed & developed no rust at all . bought it new in may 1981 . traded in for a 1990 bonneville sse in october 1991 . advice is to check the frame rails at the rear from just in front of the rear axle & at the base of the firewall . if the frame rusts, that is where the it will be .
