FORSALE: Project roller, 1986 Black exterior/Burgundy(Maroon) interior Regal….Body straight but does have it’s share of those “parking lot scratches and minor dings”. Paint is somewhat oxidized here and there (a good wet-sanding should clean it right up and bring back the shine) and the clear coat is lifting in a few spots on the hood only. That was not a problem for me in that I was going to go with a fiberglass hood anyway. A buddy of mine, well his step-kids, were playing around it and somehow the driver’s side of the windshield next to the a-pillar is cracked from something hitting it so it will need to be replaced, of course "NO ONE" did it as I'm sure we've all heard kids say that. Has the half/vinyl top, it has a split at the very top forward center point. Car is in the middle it’s transformation to a light & fast but streetable car. Interior in excellent condition but does need headliner. The plush original 60/40 split bench in very good condition too. A Custom-Built Dash by Performance Instruments (cost OVER $1500 !) using AutoMeter UltraLite gauges designed by me (pic’s posted below). Car has A/C and new heater core but tracked down (2) different original GM A/C delete “kits”, even has ALL hardware and ductwork including correct dash control AND the correct glove box in the original Burgundy (Maroon) color!! There’s a good 40lbs or so loss right there from what I‘ve read. Other weight loss items include aluminum bumper mounting brackets (replaces 5-mph “energy absorbers“, but also have NOS those too). A rare and hard to find original GM aluminum core support (not installed yet). Aluminum front bumper reinforcement, not installed instead the Canadian Only individuals are. (2) 84-85 front original GM GN air-dam spoilers. Original GM GN 5-piece rear spoiler (NOT a cheap fiberglass repo!). I drilled out the spot welds in spare tire housing and replaced with a rolled and broke piece of 16 gauge so that it looks factory and opens up all kinds of room under trunk. A 20gal w/GM sending unit aluminum cell in trunk with dual -10AN outlets.
Rearend is another braced and black powder coated Moser 9” without the third member so it is the housing and 35 spline axles only. Moser all new rear brake set-up, drums cryo’d and powdercoated black. Kirban driveshaft safety loop. TOTAL COMPLETE HR PartsNStuff rear suspension incuding DBL ADJ uppers w/HD Delrin bushings, (2) pairs of Lowers w/HD Delrin (also a pair of extra ¼“ longer too to better center the rear tires in the wheel well!). HR’s Super Sway Bar, welded HR’s frame braces. Hotchkis frame braces tying upper frame mounts to the lower frame mounts. (2) different pair of the American Racing Vector “T-Type look-a-like” rims, 15 X 8.5”. One pair has nothing mounted on them and second pair has new (stickers) Hoosier Pro Street 29.5X12.5X15 Radials. They fit with NO frame notching but (Also included is a complete custom kit to do so though!) and NO fender rolling! Front rims are original Buick T-Type 15X7 with Hoosier Pro Street fronts. Front suspension is Global West Drag Tubular Uppers and Lowers w/Delrin bushings and AFCO "Low Friction" Ball Joints. QA-1 Coil-overs. (2) pair of slotted and drilled Summit Racing cryo’d rotors. SSBC “Quick Change” aluminum calipers w/pads. Russell braided brake hoses front and rear set. All steering components replaced with Moog components except box itself (There‘s WAY OVER $10,000 in just the rearend, front and rear suspension and braking system including wheels and tires!). Guys...There is NO reason why this Regal with the right kind of finishing work, weight removed in all the right spots and good tuning can not be a 9 second fully-streetable car!

More pic's, also I forgot to list the New exhaust system. Torque Tech 3 ½” “X” pipe exhaust to 3” outlets exiting “GN” style behind rear tires
3 ½” and 3” Pre-formed Stainless Steel Band Clamps for above entire exhaust system included (will NOT “kink” pipes thereby “interlocking” and making disassembly nearly impossible!)

Is the price a typo on this? You may want to do more research on these cars and what they're worth. GLWS
 
Is the price a typo on this? You may want to do more research on these cars and what they're worth. GLWS

You might want to do your own research before you go on someone's for sale thread talking BS, put pen to paper and do the math, tell me smart ass how much money in parts alone are in this package? This pisses me off, if you are not interest and you don't have a clue what your talking about why are you posting on someones thread and trying to screw up there sale? I can just as easy take all my **** and leave. There is a black car post in here for $5500 that doesn't have near the parts etc this project has, did you reprice his car? Chris
 
More parts

I would like people to understand, all this stuff belonged to my buddy that passed away a couple months ago, one week before his 43rd B-day so as I find things I will add them to the list. There are two cars and a wack of parts to go through so I might miss a few things that are there for this car. I wanted to change the price to $7800 before turbobuick.com's price expert got on my post but for some reason it won't let me edit my post? Anyway, I found the pic for the rad, its a Be Cool Aluminum Radiator part#(62008) this is a $700 rad. Sorry for going of but the board admin might want to use the rule that works great on other web site's that if you are not interested in buying the item (DO NOT POST) Thank you..... Chris

Dash

Where did you get the NOS, High Beam overlay?....Sorry for the hi-jack GLWS.

The dash was was all custom built unit, I think we have the receipt in the file if you want me to look. I think that is part of the reason why it cost $1500 to have built, the workman ship is excellent.... Chris
 
Date is wrong

The date in the pic's are not correct, these were taken a coulpe weeks ago. The battery was dead and my buddies nephew didn't know how to reset it. lol

Exhaust system

Someone just reminded that the new Exhaust system with X pipe wasn't priced out in my list, that is most likely somewhere around $800 to add to the growing cost to buld this car? Chris
