Since clean examples of these cars are getting scarce. I couldn't pass this one up. It belonged to a customer that had me build the engine, trans & do a lot of upgrades then let it sit under a car cover since 2008. The paint deteriorated & Guy Cunningham came to the rescue. His car needed it's yearly going over from his heavy foot so this was an opportunity to help each other out. I will have to say that these trade deals hadn't always worked out for me in the past & usually came up short. As it turned out Guy came through with his end of the deal thank him greatly for that & I feel reciprocated likewise. I have always felt that if you treat me good I will do so better . This is one car I would love to keep but unfortunately cannot. So It goes up for sale here first. New engine , trans, bilstien shocks, New tires, GNX style wheels, battery, Interior & paint perfect, VDO guages, SMC alky kit, TT chip, TA 60 turbo, Dutt neck intercooler, 42 # injectors, hooker cat back, Walbro f/pump, vacuum brake conversion, new A/C compressor, drier, orfice tube R134 conversion etc. It's a west cost car no rust or accidents needs nothing. $20,000

All I can say is WOW! It looked like it would be a big project when you got it but now it looks amazing.
 
I have to say I bought a turbo regal from Lou 6 years ago, when I drove away from the shop I called my brother and told him this regal is way way better than what Lou describe it to be..
Lou told me it was a nice driver but the truth is it was an awesome car I regret selling it!!
I'm sure this GN is no different good luck with the sale....
 
Thanks guys, I'm really buried in this one although it was a nice car to start with it took a lot of work to bring it to the point that I was happy with. Anyone who has ever bought a car from me never regretted it. Thats how I made many of my friends cause you get a free pollock with it :)
 
I got a chance to look this thing over and under last Saturday. Other than all the drool I left on the paint, it's very clean. The under side looks as though it's only been driven to church and back on Sundays (Not by Meanchicken:D ).

If he sells it, someone will get a very nice GN. I told Lou that he should keep this one.

seen this car when i was there on friday, looks like it rolled off the showroom floor
 
I gotta say Lou, that IS one very nice car. I wish I had some extra dough, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Someone is going to get a CRAZY nice car.
 
Lou,

How many miles on the clock?
Speedo reads 108,000 which doesn't mean much cause the car has been totally restored front to back with less than 2000 miles since the work had been done.
 
Car sold to Rob Lange and glad a forum member gets to enjoy all the expense & effort that went into making it a very nice car. Every time I do one of these I doubt my sanity & say never again.These cars are getting up there in age & it's becoming very difficult to find nice examples that aren't totally thrashed. Then come another that beckons to me & can't seem to resist. I'm just glad I had Guy Cunningham to take care of the paint work or this story wouldn't of had such a happy ending.
 
Biz is picking up.
I need a few local volunteers for me to practice a sketch presentation on...
Been working on it for a few weeks and think I've got it down pretty good...just need an objective and honest audience to run it by for critique.
20-30 minutes max...anyone up for it?
Could even do it over lunch... my treat for your support.
 
Wish I was closer. I was in sales/recruiting for 3 years and my degree I have almost completed is in education and development, which includes the ability to brief/ speak in public. :)

I'm not opposed to meeting-up in Oceanside or Carlsbad...
