My 86 limited project

I think your right about the one side sagging, and i couldnt figure out why.

My driver side rear sags on the 86 as well, I think the 87 did too, but when I replaced the suspension in the rear, it went away

Wow and I thought having the limited you got power windows, door locks, seats, etc etc etc. I never knew Leather & t-tops were on the option list as well. Pretty cool I guess. As kustomkyle stated I guess It Is the "ultimate Regal Limited" 😱

My 86' Limited is the exact opposite. It looks similar (rallye wheels, light blue metallic instead of silver), but it has manual seats, crank windows/locks. That thing must have been like $20,000 new. If anything, at least the manual stuff is cheaper to maintain.

By the way, does/did your car sit low on the driver's side rear? My car is 1" lower than the passenger side back there, and I also replaced the rear springs from a Monte Carlo SS (as well as rear body mounts during the frame repair). I've heard these cars were like that from the factory?

Also, if you need any parts there is a salvage yard here that has about 20 1981-1987 Regals. One is a t-top car.

20 regals!!!!!! one word "LUCKY", junks yards around me are dry of misc G-bodies so I'm being somewhat cautious of where I park now a days. Don't need any parts only but 2 power door lock switches but just ordered 2 from ebay. Thank god for Ebay :wink:

Off topic UFC 105 is starting now, FREE on Spike Tv 8pm Est, got to cut it short.

I'm thinking that it is something in the rear control arms. I don't know what else it could be. I don't think it hurts anything but it definitely makes the car look like there is something wrong with it.

Looks good!

What are you gonna do with the other Regal?

 

[uneek1976]

I sold the other regal. In the picture with the two parked next to each other, my limited is lower than the tan regal because i swapped the spindles before i sold her.
