Wouldn't this be a hard thing to track? Since Buick offered the engine in the Regal, a customer could pretty much get any color they wanted so there are PROBABLY no easily accessable production numbers. Know what I mean?

I would just say, ya don't see a lot of em in that color! That's for sure.

Don't know why though...sure is a great looking car!

P.S. wanna sell it??? LOL

We have one 86 that color here local to me.

kay and I own an 86 T-Type WE4 that previously belonged to the late Roy West, we have owned this one for at least 3 months and I have to admit there is no other shade of blue that pops with a WE4 package.

I would sell the GN before I sold the T Type because I know its rare car. I can buy another GN anytime:biggrin:

Hi Fred,

I will be down sometime in the fall to have some minor things done to the 86. I will PM with more info. Also can you post some pics of your 86 T Type? :biggrin:

That car is sweet! Hard to say how many they made. I have owned 2 of the light blue 86s including this one.

[turbo6mike]

I like that color.I had one in 95-96 and sold it to monte231SS,then after him it was in north ridgeville ohio and dont know what happened to it.

 

[PaintedIron]

Uber nice looking ride man. Im trying to find me another one to mess with.

 

[Limited87]

Mike, that has to be your old car! I bought it from the guy in N. Ridgeville and then sold it to Paul Castle (owner of the silver bullet stage 2 car) who sold it to its current owner. Small world..lol:biggrin:

 

[turbo6mike]

Thats crazy !I have been wondering were this car has been for a while.I almost bought it back from the guy in ridgeville but we did not agree on a price.Is the car still non posi????

 

[Limited87]

Yeah it wasnt exactly easy to get a deal done for me either but eventually did. It was a non posi when it left me but the current owner 313badbuick may have put one in it.

 

[313badbuick]

FINALLy!!! I need to talk with you about the car's history in detail. Please send me a pm. Thanks

Just bought a TA rear cover and when I get back to the States Iam going to pay Fred a visit in Valdosta, Ga. to put a posi in the ole girl. I have driven several stocker and for a mild stocker ( K&N air filter, exhaust, downpipe, etc. etc.) its the strongest I have driven . Still scratch second and third when you get in it!!! I have some recent pics I will post. I have added tint, upgrade stereo system, AFP, beefier tires in the front and back which I think are TOYO's. I cant get myself to really mod the car because its rare color and a 86. Plus I dont drive it much. I purchased the car from Paul Castle in Jan 2007 and think I only have put about 800miles on it. It mostly stays in the garage covered up. I love that car and plan to keep as long as Iam alive:biggrin: .
