A New And Rare One.

hey guys, im new. my names brendan and i wanted a turbo regal since i was 12. well im 18 and i just saved a basket case
83 t-type with w03 paint and T-tops

its packing the 4 barrel 3.8 with the old school turbo setup.
any info or tips would be appreciated,

im currently attending a school of mechanics in RI so the car is coming to school with me and everything from brakes to exhaust to the motor is being rebuild, then the bodywork will come when i have money as well as the interior.

i need to find a horn button tho, right now im starting at a bolted on steeringwheel and need the horn assembly. its a standard ttype steering wheel. i also need a set of 4 center caps somewhere along the line but i have the really scarce old t-type rims, the boxy square vented ones.


any help would be super appreciated.

<3 Brendan

live the american dream...buy a G-body.

Welcome! Make sure you check out the "Before Black (non-SFI) Tech" forum which is dedicated to the carbed turbo cars like yours. They will definately be able to point you in the right direction. Good luck.

Check out the links in my signature. (I need to update my '83 TR's page. I broke into the 14's this summer with a 14.85@92.)

Center caps from the 86/87 TR wheels and 84/85 GN will work on your N78 wheels.
