Hey Everyone, how's it goin'?

Worked on cars most of my life, and decided to get myself a Project over the course of the wonderful lockdown.

Got a 1981 Buick Regal Limited. Built a 350 SBC on a TH400. Want to eventually put a turbo LS into it, but for now just wanna roll around with some muscle.

Lots of work to do, and any advice/ Ideas would be appreciated.

Also, always looking for parts too, so if you got something to spare I'll take it!

Got some pictures too, hope you like what I've done so far.

Also, made it a push start :p

Perhaps it's parallax in the 3rd pic (with you in it), but the rear axle looks to be sitting behind the center of the wheel well. What is the rear suspension setup - still stock or aftermarket bars?

I'm al about turbos, and you don't need an LS to put a turbo on it. Put a turbo on what you have and enjoy (if the current motor is sound.)

Welcome, liking the look of the door panels. Are you gonna leave it like that then add some nice headed screws or bolts for it?
