    Body bushing question

    I am pretty sure that this question has already been answered on this site but I could not find the information that I am seeking. I am ready to lower the body onto the frame of my 78 Regal but I forgot to take note of which type of bushing goes where before I removed the old ones. I have a...

    Vinyl Roof

    Here are some pics of the car that I am planning to restore. As you can see the dash,carpet and seatbelts have been painted black. I might could reuse the dash but it has some warpage from sitting out in the sun and I probably would have a hard time stripping it anyway. I have a dash from a 1980...

    5.7 litre emblem

    I have been searching ebay for a couple months and no luck. I guess not too many people are restoring the full size Buicks.

    5.7 litre emblem

    Does anyone know where I can get a pair of Buick 5.7 litre emblems? I am swapping out my stock 305 in my 78 Regal for a 350 crate engine and would like to have the fender badges to reflect the bigger engine. I believe they came on 78-81 Electras and Lesabres. GM part #1259901. I know I could...
