i am not saying anything bad aboutit, who ever did it did a great job looks great! i just think it would of been easier and maybe cheaper to use a regal. unless you already had the car. think about it!!! if you had to buy the car even just as a roller it would be a little more than just buying a regal. i anm not bashing ,i think it looks great!

I don't see anything wrong with it...I met a guy who cuts up good GN's and turbo regals for parts!! i tried to "save " an 87 TR from him and he wouldn't sell it to me! As said , it just makes complete cars worth that much more more.
That being said I always wanted to do a twin turbo LS1 Turbo Regal, but I would build a clone.

Yea, they want the dollars because its a GN, but as soon as they yanked the engine..its just a buick regal. What a waste of a truely innovative musclecar

That's a waste of a GN. There are so many regals that are worth jack they could've done that to.

He still could've bought a regal and done the same. A rolling chassis or not, a gn is a gn. Even if it's not a numbers matching gn, with a turbo 6 in it, it's worth way more than a regal. But whatever, it's his choice.
