    New paint job

    I will never understand why people put so much effort and money into a paint job and do not pull the mirrors, trim, handles, quarter windows.... When I was in the market for a turbo buick, I walked away from more cars than I can count because of that exact reason.

    Someone save this 84 H/O

    I have seen several hurst olds in similar shape sell for that or more. The problem with this one is that rotted T top header. If it's just the header rotted then no big deal, it's not a hard fix. BUT if it is also the A pillars, floor pans and rockers that often go on the T top cars, he might...

    picked up a 442 parts car today...

    How rusty is the under side? That is what counts, the parts that unbolt are easy fixes. The car would be worth saving if it doesn't have a ton of rust. Even if it just needs small patches, a 442 is going to hold more value in the long term over a regular cutlass. The 442 is dang near the...

    REGAL Digital Climate Control

    Did the car have any other rare options? twilight sentinel? Fiber optic taillight indicators in the trim panel above the rear window. I forgot to list that option on the other thread but those do exist.

    REGAL Digital Climate Control

    I was one of the people that mentioned it. I would pull every last wire to it, there is a electronic lever looking module (no clue technical term) that controls the air flow that goes with it and then the module under the hood on the heater box is a very important hard to find part that is...

    Do you happen to have a picture of the map lights? they are not the same as the T top lights are they? The twilight is for sure a rare one

    Rarest Parts

    I am a mainly regal guy with some cutlass stuff, I have been building, buying, selling, parting them out and collecting parts for almost 25 years. The rarest option that I have seen is regal rear quarter chrome panels, I just sold the only set I have ever got my hands on for 450 bucks adn...

    TIRED Of Dealing With People Selling Items

    I see both sides of this. I tried to buy a T top regal v8 with a "T" package about a year ago in Chicago, the guy was waiting on a title to get shipped in from South Carolina which told me that he was turning a quick buck off of it but whatever. I really wanted this car, the build that I am...

    Good deal on hooker 1 3/4 black ceramic headers on ebay

    I would be shocked if someone can find another set of coated hooker ls long tubes even close to this price. I am pretty certain they got the 5 and 7 backwards on the listing.

    Good deal on hooker 1 3/4 black ceramic headers on ebay

    Add the -3hkr to the part number. The painted link is not the -3 which indicates the dark side black ceramic coating. I have a set sitting right in front of me, they are ceramic coated

    Good deal on hooker 1 3/4 black ceramic headers on ebay

    Did you use hookers? Everything I have read, which is allot, hooker is the only one that goes in without issues. I am months out from checking fit so I may not be much help there. I am using all holley and hooker parts for my swap because of the feedback on the whole system fitting the way it...

    Good deal on hooker 1 3/4 black ceramic headers on ebay

    Something to keep in mind. My buddy just bought a set of stainless mid length headers and was going to send them out for ceramic coating to help out with the heat issues, (edit) 580 dollars including shipping back. That is before the cost of the headers. that is the quote from jet hot that he...

    Good deal on hooker 1 3/4 black ceramic headers on ebay

    Super deal on a set of hooker 1 3/4 ls headers on ebay. Not sure if someone fat fingered some numbers or what but I was able to grab these for almost 200 less than they are anywhere else. I was expecting to get a refund and them telling me that they made a mistake but they showed up this week...

    Recent Barrett Jackson Turbo T Sold and now being flipped

    I guess in my mind a dealer installed option is something that happens at the dealer, sun roof, fender flares, styling package that was not factory.... The GNX was built and then distributed to dealers. However you look at it, that moon roof had nothing to do with GM

    Recent Barrett Jackson Turbo T Sold and now being flipped

    The GNX went to ASC directly off of the assembly line, it was a collaboration between them and GM therefore they are not a dealer package such as a cutlass gt for example. The moon roof on this car was installed after the car was built, sent to the dealer and then was likely requested by the...

    Recent Barrett Jackson Turbo T Sold and now being flipped

    That's the first time I have ever heard of a GNX that had a "dealer" installed package.... The moon roof installed was not a authorized modification by GM, it was 100% aftermarket. No point in arguing about it, like I said, it was my opinion. I have personally owned a regal with the same roof...

    Recent Barrett Jackson Turbo T Sold and now being flipped

    I thought that car was worth every bit of 30k at auction, I also thought that it was a factory astro roof car the way the pictures were presented. I considered getting registered to bid on it online. Now seeing that it is a after market moon roof, I am not so sure. That is a big deal when it...

    I have bought many HF tools with low expectations and some how still have most of them. I bought a 15 dollar set of standard and metric wrenches in a roll out pouch over 10 years ago for my salvage yard bucket, the pouch failed right away but the wrenches have yet to break even after the abuse...
