IIRC, at least on the regals and my 82 cutlass I used to own, the moulding/trim and rubber is all made together with the quarter glass.

I know you said it bogged, but if you had a 3000 stall converter, you should try holding it closer to that stall speed to launch better. Judging from the sound of the exhaust note against the camaro, you were nowhere near that rpm. Also, try throwing those slicks down to 8psi to 10psi and see...

Re: What size wheel adapters are needed to run 22inch 3pce 2 Backspacing more than 4.75 inches and thats pushing it, will require a notch or spacers/adapters. Just letting you know, the wheels on my Buick now are within a 1/4" maybe less of hitting the frame rails and they are a 4.5"...

Re: New Guy, My 1981 Regal Ltd No sir, mine is crammed to as well and no issues

Re: New Guy, My 1981 Regal Ltd Nice Regal and welcome to the site. May I suggest just one thing that will greatly improve the looks? I would suggest to get a set of GN front air dams. You can get them from Kirban Performance for around 90 bucks for the pair. Would fill out the front end...

Re: What size wheel adapters are needed to run 22inch 3pce 2 I hate to burst your bubble, but youll need more than adapters. With a wheel that wide and the offset youll find yourself more than likely (99.9% possibility) need a frame notch and a mini tub. Lot more work than just throwing on a...

Yes sir

just a quiet morning drive through town and out a country road and back

...to fall back in love with your car. Therefore, I decided not to sell the Buick afterall. Ill start back on her asap.

being sort of a supra expert, yes they do sell motor mount kits to swap in generation one small blocks or lsx engines. Just search around on google, youll find them, they also seel adapter kits to adapt the r154 turbo 5 speed trans and the w series non turbo 5 speed to small blocks as well...

I would have taken them today, but the battery was dead so I said screw it and went back inside instead of jumping it and going out in it.

Just a couple pics of the front of the Buick with the bezels and turn signals installed. So shes all back together now.

I did this to the old 86 Buick Regal I had. Those are the correct size and the ones I bought had a recessed hex head and were approximately 5/8" in length. You can pick them up at any hardware store.

Those black pieces are I believe the automatic seat belt tensioners for the front seat shoulder harnesses.

Now its time for me to throw in my knowledge about turbo buicks. All turbo buicks prior to 1986 were whats known as hot air turbos. Meaning that they did not have an intercooler. Starting in 1986 and again in 1987 all turbo buicks had intercoolers. Off the factory floor they would run 14s...

Just pulled the car out of the booth and pulled the tape off. Man its good to have her back black again. I still need to put the headlight bezels, turn signals, and taillights back in along with the black fender welting. All in all, Im happy with it being satin black again. Here's a few pics...

Not really any performance differences. Mostly cosmetic differences in the interior and maybe some exterior and interior adornments. Most of the Limiteds were optioned with the 60/40 power seats, power locks and windows, cruise control,tilt steering wheel, am/fm cassette, power antenna, most...
