Some pics of my new T-Type

[87GN_ponykillr]

Just got my second TR two days ago! This time I went hot air! Got a good deal on this 84 T. All she needs is a little body/rust work and a good paint job. Motor and trans are fresh! This is my winter project so consider these pictures the "before" photos.

Pretty cool project and I dig the color. I wouldn't mind a hot air cruiser just for kicks. Are the "6" emblems on the front fenders stock or did someone add them?

Looking good! Hopefully I'll get to see it in person at one of the MAGNA meets!

Sinical: That was a factory badge on them. No longer available from GM but they pop up on ebay from time to time. I took 2 NOS ones and drilled a hole in the top and they make a cool ass keyring! :biggrin: :biggrin:

Look in the forum pics. Someone just recently painted a T the same bugundy color and it is the NICEST Turbo Regal I've ever seen. Nice score.

Looks good except I can't dig the rims with no lip!

Thanks guys! an yes Jim she will make a MAGNA meet next year!!! With the wheels I know they are nasty I never liked them myself. I'm thinking of getting a set of 86-87 T wheels or a set of TT2's that I can share between this one and the 87.

I don't know if I have ever met you before? I live in Westminster and have a Navy Blue Formula with TT2's and my GN. Ever go to a MAGNA or EFA event?

Very cool. It is good to see that there are people preserving the hot air cars.

Yeah I used to do a lot of the EFA events since I had my Camaro but I have moved away from that group a lot. They are an interesting group... I rode past the dealership a few weeks ago (old Krause) and it looks like it's gonna be a big hit! That would be nice to have another hang out spot more local. I hate going to Jimmy Cone but I do hit the Home Depot cruz in a lot over the summer it's a nice drive.

so what are the plans for the car?

Well, the main plan is to get the little bit of rust fixed and paint the car back to a nice burgundy. Put a set of TT2's on fix the headliner and call it a day. I just put a cat-back / dump on yesterday and changed all the fluids. I'm gonna leave it stock as can be. I want the car to look good and just be a fun summer cruzer . I have sank enough $$$ into go fast parts for the 87' so not doing that again lol....
