Well, I got the bug again. Sent a deposit on a car this weekend. Barring any unforeseen problems, I'll be the new owner of a fully restored, no expenses spared 1986 Buick Regal T-Type in a few weeks.

Anyone looking for one I know someone selling one. 1987 buick Grand National.
Outside of the car is a 9 of 10... inside is a 6 of 10 because of the headliner.

This car was not only fully restored. A good amount of money was also thrown at performance parts.
Highlights:
Champion ported heads/intake
Aftermarket cam
Ported TB
TA Performance headers
3" stainless downpipe and exhaust
PTE billet ball bearing 6262 turbo
All supporting fuel mods
Alky Control dual nozzle setup.
PTE intercooler
Extreme Transmissions Stage 2 200-4r
3200 stall converter
The list goes on.

Check is in the mail. I'll be arranging shipping the first part of next week.
Another teaser:
I've elected to take the car with the stock wheels rather than the ones pictured above. The GNX style wheels are just too common on these cars and I really only like them on black or dark grey turbo Regals.

Congrats on the car, I guess I need to get back into it again as well only next time with an auto. Lately I have had the bike bug though so we'll see.
Again, beautiful car and I know you will enjoy it.
