The other F/S thread was a bit confusing and out of date, so decided to relist the car for a few days.

This is an ongoing project car, so can be sold as a roller, or as a complete package. My busy season for work is coming up fast, so really don't have the time to finish the car. I would rather sell than let it sit outside, even if it is under a nice car cover. It sucks not having a shop/garage to put her in, but that's how it goes sometimes. At least if she sells, I can pay off a few bills and move towards buying a house this winter....with a garage..lol.

1987 Buick Regal Turbo T hardtop.....code 15U Gray...WO2 blackout trim. Body is fairly straight and rust free. 174K miles on the chassis, but was owned by older lady, so wasn't abused. Original GA delivered car...have the original window sticker, bill of sale, owners manuals, receipts for work done over the years, maintenance records, etc. Body is in very good condition other than a few dings/small dents. Interior is in good condition, just sun faded from years of southern sunshine. Headliner is showing no signs of sagging, just needs a little cleaning. Car was originally a non G80 car, but at some point the original owner replaced the 8.5" with a 7.5" from a regular Regal. I bought the complete G80 rear out of an 87 GN, so it now has the correct 8.5" rear under it, with some improvements.

I added up the receipts last week and I'm over $10K into the car, just in parts...dang gray money pit..lol. If interested, shoot me an email at Slo86GN@yahoo.com or Slo86GN@gmail.com . Pics can be found at http://boosted6.com/Evil87GN/ . Car is located in SE Georgia. Asking $5,500 as a roller.....$10,500 with everything, including any spare parts I have stuck around the house. If she doesn't sell, guess it will be storage time 'til I can get time to finish the re-assembly.
 
great looking t-type... a little out of my price range.. I have always liked it since i seen it on racingjunk a few years ago
 
Thanks much for the props. I wish someone would make me a decent offer on it....about ready to see it go somewhere else. My brother bought a True Blue '02 GT 5 speed today, so that is going to become the tweak/tinker car for now. So now the Buick needs to find a new home.....that way I can pay off one or two bills, then help him get started on the Mustang. :D

Do you still have this car?

Yes, still have the car. Sorry I didn't reply sooner, but I'm not getting alerts that there has been a reply.

The engine is still out of the car, but everything else is in place/installed. Car is a complete roller, just need to go pick the engine up from the machine shop. I had planned on picking it up this past Friday, but didn't know what that storm was going to do.
 
Living in Beaumont, I can appreciate that level of respect towards a hurricane since making it thru Rita.

I was nervous as could be before the storm shifted track from the Gulf to right up FL. If Ernesto had come through the Gulf, I was already planning on loading the roller on a trailer and getting it to safety. I'm only about 70 miles NW of Jacksonville, FL so it would have been nasty if it had come through the Gulf and hit just north of Tampa. Last thing I needed was a big tree squishing the Buick....lol.
