Build thread: 87 Buick Regal Turbo T

[Undercover87T]

I also live in MD, well Baltimore to be more specific. I love the look of your car and great job on all the work you have done. I have a 84 T-Type i just bought for a restoration project for me and my son. I'll have to share some pics when i get a chance. But just thought i'd let you know you did a great job on that project....

Thanks, and welcome. A friend of mine has an 84 T-Type that was rescued from the crusher and fully restored, silver with red interior. Currently for sale actually if you know anyone else looking.

84 T-Type, 130k or so on the body, 65k on the motor, 4-5k on the trans. Factory maroon car/maroon interior. Now silver, no rust anywhere, black trim. T-Tops, PW/PL/PS, digital dash, tinted windows, all new front suspension, factory posi rear Very nice driving car. Mostly stock aside from a cold air kit and hooker exhaust. I think he'd like to get $8500 for it. There is that much just in the body work. He also has a light blue 87 T for sale as well. Located about 10min from me, Westminster/Taneytown area.

Installed a set of Alradco low beam 4300k (white) HIDs today. Install couldn't have been simpler, plug-n-play wiring, comes with new housings. What a difference!

Took my first real road trip in the car this past weekend to Ocean City, MD Cruisin Week. Held in May and October, hot rods and muscle cars invade the beach and cruise. Went down with a friend and his 84 T-Type hot air and his father and his 86 GN. There were a couple other MAGNA members down there as well. The Buicks definitely got some looks from the hot rod guys and mine surprised a terminator mustang or two 😀 .

Stopped for lunch at a bay side bar and we already started attracting the Corvette guys
