Hello!!
I have just got a deal on an all original 1 owner 1985 turbo regal and have some questions. Now I was really looking for a GN but it didnt work out that way. This car has 60k original miles on it and has been parked since 1990!! i bought it from the original owner and still have the original "A" title in hand.
The car is in fair shape and is not running at this time. I was gonna acutally do a frame off resto. on this car and make it look like a GN but now im not so sure. this car is silver with grey interior, it has a bench seat with column shifter, analog dash, hard top, it has the chrome bumpers with all black trims outside. it came without a spoiler from the factory.
either way this is gonna be a body off resto. but I am wondering if the car would be worth more money in pristine shape as a silver turbo regal or a black GN??
Also, I would like a mid to high 12 second car that gets driven on the street and holds its manners well. Should i intercool it or just leave it hotair?
everything is getting completly rebuilt and will be brand new! I have the abilities to do anything at this point and money isnt really an issue, i was looking for a great car to restore and pamper and i have found it
so what do you guys think? GN or T-TYPE? hot air or intercooled?
I love responses so lets hear them all!! lol
