1983 Buick Regal Daily Driver Budget Build

[84clonewars]

So while in the early process of doing a total frame off on my 1984 Hurst/Olds I recently picked up a 1983 Buick Regal roller from fellow member Warmonga. It's brown inside and out right now, in decent shape not too much rust. Wiring is a mess as it was setup for a sbc so everything vital was pretty much cut and it had an electric pump and fuel cell cut into the trunk. So to start I plan to basically rape my 1984 Camaro of its power-train and full autometer gauges to get this thing moving. I also plan to use lots of parts I already bought for the Hurst build since that build is gonna drag out over a year or two I can recoup those parts at a latter date.

Fuel cell for cheap if anyone wants it lol

Floors aren't great but not worthy of replacement, I plan to clean em, sand, prep and some sort of rust prevention then sound deadener.

 

[84clonewars]

I don't really know what to do about the trunk floor yet.

Some things that I had laying around and/or borrowing from the Hurst build
