Oh yeah, one more 1980 Regal on the site ! I have the same wheels, are they original of the 80' Sport Coupe ?! I always thought these wheels are aftermarket. Do you know the name of them ? Thx !

Sweet Regal here ! I love the two tone colors :) 1980 models are rare here in europe. Here in France there is some 78 and 79 models.

Thanks. Your 82 GN project is nice too :cool:

Thx ! Yeah, awesome is the word !! :D I don't know how this engine got water in cylinders, it's not coolant. Probably a flood of self has to stay some days in water. Traces inside car confirm that. :(

The TH-350 : No trace of rust and discs looking very good. Verification on dissassembly for confrmation. And the car actually : I found a 350SBC from a 71 Camaro. Hope the tranny is good and just need a rebuild kit ! Next step : identify wiring and rebuild it, remove acc. in the...

Latest works : the block and tranny are now out of engine compartment. Heads removed... it's like a bad horror movie, take a look : The liquid is a mix of WD40 and diesel put in cylinders when i got the car some years ago... The strange thing is the engine's looking great... there...

Some news ! The project was in standby these last years, but now i have time to begin work on the Regal in good conditions. :thumbsup: The SBC is blocked, but I don't know yet if it's a rust blocking.... :confused: I remove the valve cover, rocker arms, push rods and valves looking good...

What kind of change ? :biggrin:

Sweeeeeeeeeet :cool:

Oh sweet !! Genuine French Touch :biggrin:

Ok ! Thanks for the tip :wink:

Tanks for the link :wink: The big band in europ is 3M, but there is some other good paint maker here. The most important is find the code of GM paint for my regal (was mettalic light blue , but maybe i prefer an other color :cool: ). Thanks a lot again TurboFish :)

I see.. thanks ;) I know someone who's worked in the swiss assembly plants and has an incredible knowledge about GM, and lot of factory tech resource... Thanks :wink:

In France ? :D

Hi everybody ! I'm searching a catalog or brochure with all colors available for my Buick (Sport Coupe 1980) but don't found anything... If you know something about that I'm interested :D thx a lot :wink:
