Well, i hate to do this...
I have a 87 Turbo regal Limited with 91,xxx miles that i purchased from the second owner who had it from 1988 till i purchased it with 91,yyy miles
White hardtop original paint grey limited cloth bench seat (factory puffy limited interior)
Digital dash column shift power windows door locks tilt cruise defrost power seat am/fm with power antenna (rope is broken in antenna and unplugged)
auburn posi installed from last owner.
Its a very nice car, ask anyone who saw it at the nationals this year, everyone who saw it said it was a very clean car and expected it to be a 25,000 mile car very well taken care of. Paint looks sweet and the body is ding free, the nose has been painted and so have the mirrors.
I have alot of photos of this car in various stages. When i purchased it, i drove it home from great bend kansas and stuffed it in my garage for 3-4 years and never drove it. I really expected to sell one of my other cars and enjoy it during those 3-4 years, but as busy as i get, i never had time for the car till nov 2006. I think ive owned the car for 6 years now.
Long story short, i purchased the car from a older gentleman by the name of Vance Wise who purchased the car with 3,000 miles on it. He was a Kenne bell fanatic, it still retains the kb front mount and hotwire kit, i swapped the pump to a 340m from Mike Licht and installed a self ported upper plenum and 62mm t-body from my 9K TTA. I ditched the larger upper plenum and tbody, they actually would slow the car down at that power level.
Anywho, i like making these cars go fast.
Currently ive owned over 20+ 86-87 turbo regals, 6 right now, so when i first had the car i loaded it up with 104 sonoco and a medium timing chip and when the car ran a low 13 on 235 radials, i knew it was going to be a dead ringer(factory freak faster than the average car) Thats probably why i was saving the car and not driving it, I was probably waiting to hurt my daily driver silver limited, but ive still been driving the silver car for 10 years :smile:
November 2006, i ported the stock turbo, and with 110 octane and 27° of timing the car was running 11.7 at 114 and change all stock except for the front mount, Mark Huefman cool air kit and Mease downpipe
Fast forward to November 2007 for the midwest shootout, i installed a ta61 turbo, 009 injectors and the car has been runing 11.19 - 11.22 at 121- 122 with 23-25 psi of boost. 28° of timing.
After all that, i really expected the 9/11 convertor, champion intake, aluminum driveshaft, RJC pulleys,F-BODY radiator, ect ect ect to make the car dip into the 10s... I think its just out of injector for that power level ( the car never has been detonated since i purchased it), i buy good gas and also run a little of methanol injection to make sure the car is no going to broken down on me.
Very sweet car with no rust, been garaged from previous owner and myself.
At the nationals i was asking $17,000.00 but that includes the 16" torque thrust wheels with less than 100 miles on them.
I will probably take around $15,500 without the drag wheels, includes the stock wheels, all paperwork, and the TTII wheels.
I could remove some modifications to lower the price, but that ta61 and 9/11 conv spool up faster than a D5 and stock turbo
