I used to be on here with my 83 regal I built, but traded that. I've had the itch for another g-body and today I ended up taking this car and $1000 cash for my bike. It has a 350 bored .40 over, Holley carb, headers, posi, flowmasters, torque thrust IIs, belltech springs and shocks too. It has a nasty came in it, but the owner wasn't sure what since he didn't build it. It has a lot of surface rust, but frame, floors and trunk are really good. I plan on bagging it and then doing the body/paint, interior and stereo.

This is the regal I built when I was on here last:

Thanks, I don't think I'm going to go that low with this one, not sure yet, I ran strong arms, DCM s10 drop spindles and slam re6's, and the whole trunk I cut out notched the frame, custom bridge slam re7's , then all custom sheet metal trunk floor and tubs. I'm thinking going with the shockwaves up front this time and sacrificing drop for ride quality.

Thanks, got it legal today so took it out for spin, it's a fun car. I'm having a guy come up Sunday to look at the body, so we can get a game plan going. I'm gong to do the body and paint first. Then start with the air ride later. Just have to be careful after the paint is done, but the paint will be big chunk of loot, whereas I can do the air a little at a time.

Thanks! Grabbing a 3" cowl hood, new front bumper and spoiler tomorrow. Still need a trunk lid, and maybe doors, gotta have the body guy look at them Sunday to decide.
