It's like rehab lol, hi my name is Rob and I'm a car junkie lol. I picked up an '87 buick regal limited
from a little old lady. She only used the car to go shopping or church. She couldn't drive anymore,
so I gave the car a good home. It has a v6 3.8 with 88000 original miles and it's all there, but don't get me wrong car has normal wear and tear. Best thing is my mechanic did all the service on the car for the lady that I
bought it from. The only thing I did so far was put on set of chevy camaro rims (need to be painted, needs trim rings, have original center caps from GM), changed water pump and radio(needs speakers now)..

Welcome aboard, Rob.
looks like a nice clean Regal...it's also nice to know the history about the car...who owned it and how it was maintained.

Welcome from Mi. car looks good - looks like you already replaced the front bumper fillers, did you use the fiberglass replacements? You don't see many silver ones, I had a silver 81.

They where on the car when I got her. The lady I bought it from her son put them on and yes their fiberglass replacement, but I notice that their starting to crack(corners) and don't really fit well, but they'll do for now. I have to replace the rear filler that's just cracking/falling apart.
