What "G" body!???

[QS442]

1985 White 442 w/t tops and gray interior
1987 Black 442 w/astroroof and gray interior
1987 Black Regal w/T-package non turbo w/307 and maroon interior

87 turbo t, white, black trim, t-tops, grey interior.

For me there is just something about a white g body, with black trim and tinted windows that really stands out.

This, no T tops and V8. Pretty much what I want mine to be anyway.

To each their own, but curious... what would be the best looking G in your opinion?

Monte Carlo SS, followed by the 442 and Grand National.

Actually, I like all of them except the Grand Prix.

 

[84 W40]

82-1/2 Grand National
87 Regal T-Package 307

Quite a long time ago a customer of mine came into the John Deere heavy equipment dealer I was working at and parked his 78' or 79' (?) Olds Cutlass 2dr. We spoke about it at length and he told me he special ordered it from the dealer with a 455 Olds and Muncie 4 speed and had the order documents to prove it. I'd choose that one if in fact it was available to purchase.

No 455s were certified for Cutlass in 78 or 79.

No, No, No, he has the paper work so it has to be true. Who would fake paper work on the car the ordered brand new. Oh wait, thats why there are more top end muscle cars on the on the road than what was ever built. Sad thing someone will fall for the lie & pay way too much for something that was never made.

I would like to just buy the one I did with but with MUCH better manufacturing quality and then MORE IMPORTANTLY, get it back on the road!

While it's true the dealership MIGHT have done it, or some other shop did, GM didn't do it. Not that and give it a streetable VIN that's for sure. Closest I've personally ever seen of something like this was this guy in Charleston I worked with bought a brandy new 1986 Monte Carlo and the dealership put wider tires on the back, and a slight cam and a set of headers on the car somehow worked into his existing exhaust. He paid to have this done before he even picked up the car at delivery. They voided the warranty on it. I thought he was crazy. But it was his car, and his money. AFAIK he never had an issue with it. I was always a little jelly of him because anything to make your 3-oh-nothing go, every little advantage meant something. Back then the best N/A cars I knew of that was just kick *ss as a grab the keys and go car was those Mustang LX 5.0s. Quick little mosquitos they were. And they were like Charleston mosquitos back then. They were EVERYWHERE.
