[ronbuick]

Yes, why, thinking of doing to my wagon also, or go the easy route and drop in a 300-350 Buick for a little more muscle.

how much do you want for it?

$7.5 thats firm for everything thats been done to the vehicle just needs paint and some interior work, i have everything needed to make it a floor shift car, GN shifter, brand new cable and clip...... vehicle comes with all receipts and will even throw in the hoosier slicks and draglites.... im the 2nd owner of the vehicle its a california car and was bought from a elderly couple that had it sitting for years, 95% of the bolts on the block are brand new and about 90% are ARP. all accessories are brand new ( mini starter,alternator,a/c delete pulley) injectors, scanmaster,extreme extender chip, translator, rad hose, radiator, trans cooler and ZO6 maf sensor are brand new and purchased from GN1PERFORMANCE, differential was rebuild and installed some new clutch, transmission was rebuilt and used a CPT 3200 non lock up converter etc.... everything is posted on this thread

I'm still working on a similar project, and am buying a bunch of new parts. Your asking price seems very fair to me considering what those parts cost new. Hoosiers and Welds are icing on the cake. I frequently see posts that say 'cool wagon, I want to do one' so somebody take this guy up on his offer. I have at least that much invested and it still has a ways to go to get finished.

Glad to hear you got into school and good luck. Sorry to see you getting rid of her though. Have you put her in the for sale section yet?

yes i did, it sucks to get rid of her but hey it will all pay off in the long run, the build wasnt so difficult so i might consider doing another one after i get my degree's (radiology and soundnagraphy tech) AS and a BA

So someone is gonna get a free car with purchase of entire drivetrain?? Whoever buys this is gonna get a good deal!

picked up a set of wheels/tires yesterday...15x10's 4" backspacing. 275/50/15 ET Street's (bald) and 15x3.5 up front. No rash/bends. $300.

THEY FIT PERFECT!

 

[htwhls19]

I wanted prostars since everyone and their brother has draglites, but oh well...look pretty sick. Caps/plugs on their way in the mail.

I see that the heater and A/C have been removed, will there be any provisions at least for heat, if it leaves Cali. there is a good chance that if someone buys they will more than likely will need some sort of heater, at least I would think so, I did that to my 82 Regal Wagon and I wish I had'nt
of done that, so on cool morning days it really sucked.

As for me, my car's only going to be insured for the 6 summer months, shouldn't have to worry about heat april-september.

I took the front sway bar off and love how it launches...man if it only had some power and a converter

 

[ronbuick]

D you plan on adding any type of heat, cause I'm interesting in this if you wold take in a part trade of a 83 Buick Regal wagon that is also white with the Buick road wheels on it, it also has a replacement GM 109 block that has been installed at some point in its life, and this is a very decent car with no rust, and I would like 2500.00 for the wagon and if you wanted to do this, I would have to come up with 5 grand if my math serves me right, also has maroon interior, air that works, cruise that works and looks pretty good also.
LMK if even slighty interested, thanks.
