[eversmann79]

Finally got my regal out to clean it and get my new rims and tires on it and clean them
275/60's out back 235/50's in the front looks nice.
its a 78 regal with a 1970 010 350 block thats stock.... for now
i have an rpm intake but waiting on funds to get a decent carb.

i found a guy selling a 7.5 posi rearend, with new rims and tires and hurst shifter for 300$
i got all that, rear tailights with bezels, headlight bezels, whole new header panel, 2 grills, notched crossmember, and some side marker lights.

Ill keep the post updated asmuch as i can. thanks guys!

Really Clean looking regal you have there! Our years are really rare (78-80) Just restored my 80 Buick regal exterior. Interior needs a lot of help and is up next. hope to post some pics soon. Was wondering if you had or knew of anyone that had some exterior chrome trim pieces i'm missing: passenger quarter glass upper drip rail trim and passenger quarter panel lower rocker trim. also vertical chrome trim pieces on either side of the grill. Also saw you said something about headlight bezels? Mine are chipping, but mine dont have the turn signals in the bezel (in front bumper). Still have those? Any help is greatly appreciated.

The 78-79 bezels won't fit your car. Welcome to the club I need bezels too. But the 78-79 had 1 single headlights while we have duals
