87 Regal Limited, loaded. power everything even moonroof.

Black w/black single pad 1/4 top
Maroon interior
Olds 307 w/TH2004-R

$500 and drove it home.

I plan on converting this "regular regal" into a deep sleeping street pounder!

What do you guys think?

great idea my man and if u want to go all out i have a stage 2 set up all apart but needs a cam and a crank. That will be a hell of a ride when you are done with it. I have been lookin for something like what you got wanna sell it:biggrin:

Nice catch! Hopefully you plan on retaining the wire cover/rims setup...

Whatever you do, don't ruin it by installing a V6, it already has the big V8.

Aren't the twin turbo'd LSx motors great sleepers???

Man....heck yes! And on top of that this baby is gonna get a brand new set of 195/75/14 white wall tires. Won't be worth a dang off the line but for those 70mph - 140mph rolls they will be just fine. :biggrin:

The car is not perfect by any means.

The front seats are terribly faded from not using the moon roof shade.

I did these repairs tonight:
Drivers window motor and switch
Drivers Inside door handle
Drivers Upper and Lower Hinges/bushings

Next is cutting the cat conv. off and replacing the v-belts. then its ready to cruise.

Thanks for the nice comments.

See the combo in my signature below? That is whats going in this Regal.

I'm currently in the process of building a 9 sec motor for the GN with a TH400 and brake

 

[Robbie-87plz]

Sweet!
What's that combo currently run, if you don't mind me asking?
Trying to formulate a 10 sex street car plan for my newly acquired GN.
Am ready to learn up as much as I can about combos...

check Coker tires they might have a 14" drag radial (or slightly fatter & taller) white side wall tires in that way u can get a little oomph on take off. Good luck with the project.

Nice regal, as well as tne GN!! Do you ever go out to Kil-Kare to run? I just completed an 3.8L engine swap to my 90 Firebird, got a few little kinks to work out, but hope to have it out sometime soon. Nice cars!!
