Got a couple of small things done on the Regal. Somehow, a couple of my plug wires ended up on the header and melted through, so I replaced them with some Accel Super Stocks. I also added a seat belt guide to my seats so my neck wouldn't get rubbed raw by my seat belt. To end the evening...

How about this one?? It used to be all blue, and it still has a fair amount of it left on the body ;) A few things I've done: Buick Rallies and Radial T/As Lowered Dakota Digital VHX Grant Steering Wheel 97 Grand Prix Bucket Seats Electric Fans with Dakota Digital PAC-2700 fan controller...

Yes, the car, the kid, and the wife were all fine. The bumper got tweaked a little and the taillight lens was broken, but nothing major.

Could you just use the center seat belt in the back seat to hold it in? That's where I have the child seat in my Regal, and we got rear-ended and everything worked just fine.

This weekend I hit up the local junkyard in search of some buckets for the Buick. My seat got a little messed up when I got rear-ended, plus I plan on putting in a floor shifter, so that's the reason for buckets. I always liked the seats that my Grand Prix GTP had, and I was able to find a...

I got a little more work done on the Buick! Had a full weekend that consisted of putting on Vortec heads, putting in the new camshaft from Summit (SUM-1103), and the the Edelbrock Performer EPS intake. New heads also meant new valve covers. My dad and I took our time with the whole job and it...

Thanks! The left side of the cross member was already modified by the last owner for exhaust, but other than that, it looks like it could have been made for the Buick! The tabs that were welded to the exhaust for mounting lined right up with the frame rails, so hanging it was a breeze too. It...

Couple more pics.

Update time! I bought some exhaust from a NASCAR that someone was selling on ebay. Turns out that it fits quite well on the Buick! I had to trim the end off a little so it didn't stick out too far, but other than that, it worked great! Here are a few pics. P.S. I have all the parts ready...

I clipped a coil off of the front springs, then used spring locks on the rear springs. Many people frown at both methods, but they both work great if you ask me!

As promised, here are some better pics with my real camera. Keep an eye on that engine bay; I have a few upgrades waiting to go in there :)

Here are a couple of crappy pics from my phone of my custom bracket and shroud that I made for my electric fans that I installed. I took the fans from a 2000 Caravan and hooked them up to a Dakota Digital PAC-2700 fan controller. It's pretty slick! You can set on and off temps as well as...

The Regal got rear-ended a couple of weekends ago by someone with no insurance. A couple of days ago, I got a letter from the state's attorney saying they are asking to the court to order restitution for any losses I suffered. :D I got one estimate, getting the other one soon, then we'll see...

The radio does not have a clock. The radio it came with still works, so I know there is power to it. I'll look at the wiring harnesses and see if everything is routed the way it needs to be. Thanks for the help!

My 79 Regal came with the am radio, and I recently got an am/fm radio from a G body Malibu. I hooked up the two wiring harnesses, and the radio will not power up. Is there anything else I need for this swap to work, or do I just have a radio that doesn't work? Thanks :)

Here is one more little nugget. Side by side comparison of the drop.

Here are a few more pics of the lowered version of the Field Car, for your viewing pleasure.

Actually, they are the cloth seats. I'll keep an eye out for a vinyl bucket for ya though ;)

I finished lowering the Buick this week! Enjoy the pics and thanks for checkin' it out!
