Hidden cigar humidor?? That has got to be one of the most unique ideas I have heard recently!! Love it!!! Where do you plan on placing it, or would that kill the whole "hidden" idea??

Re: My 79

Yea the doner was in much better shape than my original, however it came well after i was into the 79. I Don't mind too much though, I prefer the solid look over the t-top and for reasons i can't explain had my heart set on a 79 not an 80, its just cooler to say, seventy nine...

Still thinking on the humidor, the dash? the glovebox? center console? such things keep me up at night

I think you're on to something! :rofl: For some reason unknown to me, I always hated telling people I had an '80 Regal. It almost sounded better to just say 1980.

Re: My 79

It's definitely a grind. I had never even pumped my own gas when I bought it. Three years later I'm shaking my head at the epic proportions this project has become. I was just supposed to change the oil and swap out the air freshener! :blam:
 
Re: My 79

Nice car bro looks like a fun project. Looks the work is commming along nicely. I also don't like the t-top look not to mention i've never seen one that didn't leak.
