1986 Buick Regal T-Type
82,200- Actual
1,921 Cars Built, This is 1 of 124 with leather 45/45 Seats (according to Dennis Kirban)
Full Frame off Restoration-Stock color Medium Dark Gray Metalic
This car has been meticulously gone through by me. I am not a professional, this is for fun and not my full-time job. I will try and list everything that I have done with the car. I replaced the drivers side floor pan, new patch panels were welded in the front and back of the rear fender and outer rocker panels. I can assure you every bolt was removed, cleaned and painted. This is not a spray paint Picasso. The car was painted with PPG paint in the original color of medium dark gray metallic. 3 coats of base and 3 coats of PPG clearcoat. All parts were painted while disassembled. The bottom of the cab was rustproofed. The frame and suspension parts were fully disassembled and sandblasted. All chassis parts and frame were painted with ceramic chassis paint with 3 coats. The car has reproduction doors to ensure rust free metal. All trim parts were painted with SEM trim paint. Every emblem was replaced as well. Engine cylinder heads were reconditioned with valve job/seals and springs for preventative maintenance. The car is mostly stock; however, I added modern day and IMO necessary upgrades for smooth running.
All are New Parts/Upgrades
Turbo- New 5857
60lb Injectors-Walboro 340 Fuel Pump
3” SST Downpipe.

Turbotweak Chip
New Fuel Tank/powdercoated.
Ceramic Coated Headers and U-Pipe
GN1 3” Stainless Steel exhaust including test pipe
Caspers Hotwire
Dual Fans/Caspers Harness
New GM Battery
New Upper A frames/All new Bushings and ball joints in uppers and lower A Frames
New Front rotors/bearings/brake pads/brake lines
Refurbished Rear drum brakes with new springs, clips etc.
New rear Brake cables and E-brake.
New Front and Rear Coil Springs
New front and Rear stock shock absorbers
New 8 pin GM Hood Pad
New wheel well openings
New Bumper fillers
New Headlight bezels
New headliner
New Carpet and floor mats
New front and rear Kenwood Speakers
New Weather strip/Door felts
New Washer and Antifreeze Overflow tanks
New Energy polyurethane body mounts and Bolts
Car is sitting on 16” GNX wheels and tires have a lot of life left. Will include the original turbine wheels if requested.
I am surely missing some things, but I have all pictures of the before/after and in process. Most all of the receipts are saved and documented for the new owner.
$50,000- I will say this one time- Yes there will be less expensive cars than this. You can purchase those cars and then after you replace parts and paint the car, I will assure you that you will exceed what I’m asking. I am very confident this car was done as well as any car. This car will be a great piece in anyone’s collection or hassle free Turbo Buick if you are jumping into the Turbo Regal world.
