I guess to start I decided that I wanted to get back to owning and driving a true muscle car and knew that it had to be a full solid frame GM. I wanted something that could make lots of power and still be drive-able. So not so long story short the G-body has to be the best of the best, I can put what ever motor I want to in it and the frame and suspension can handle the abuse that I plan on putting it through. So I actually found the exact car that I wanted which is a 85 Buick T-type with a 400 sbc already in it. The car has been sitting for around 5 years as a potential jeep project but I got the guy to trade it to me for a 97 v6 Firebird. Anyways its mine now and I have big dreams and lots of work to get it there.
So I will begin the build thread. Currently it is a 85 Buick T-type with a 400 sbc with headers, holley double pumper carb and th350 trans ,it is missing the posi 8.5 rear, but has a 3.42 monty ss rear end, also missing is the headlights and needs new steering column plus the floor pan is trash because it sat outside for about 5 years. I have purchased and about to install new gas tank and sending unit, black headlights that convert them to H4 HID, wiring harness for the new H4 bulbs, 01 Intrepid fan and hayden 2 fan 2 speed controller and all new locks and keys plus some other misc item needed...
