Darkstar's '86 regal build

[Darkstar]

Hello all!

I've been lurking on here awhile and thought it was time to post a build page now that I'm starting to get some things going. My regal is an '86 with the V-8 option. I ended up buying it from a guy out of Ohio and drove it back here to Indiana. All in all, I thought it looked like a fairly straight body and good for an LS grand national build. Here are some pictures of when I got her:

Is your carpet dark grey or what?

 

[Darkstar]

It's a light blue color like the rest of the interior.

I sent my regal to get some body work done and a new paint job a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately, there was a lot of rust in the rocker panels under the chrome trim. Here is the progress so far:

A little update on the bodywork/paint progress:

Ok you said LS? What! You mean 455 Buick? I know I'm going 403 or 350 olds just to drive it before the big or small Buick engine so why LS? Keep your Buick at least BOP.
