Car is 98% stock appearing save for the afpr, fuel rail gauge, vacuum conversion and exhaust. Stock front air dams are affixed to the car but not pictured.
Essentially, everything that a new turbo regal owner should do to a newly acquired car has already been done. All of the boring basics have been handled. The platform is set if you simply want to do some weekend cruising or if you want to add some alcohol injection, turn up the boost and race. It's ready to go.
Issues: There seems to be a small oil leak from the rear of a valve cover or intake manifold that runs down the back of the block. I’ve hunted for it but not found it. (I rarely drive the car so it’s not been a priority). The rear fillers have cracked on the passenger side; they still look ok but will need replaced if you want it perfect. In the passenger side rear of the decklid there is some touch up. A rake scratched the paint and I applied the touch up- You can hardly see it but I see it and it still bugs me. Finally, the left rear quarter has a ding about the size of a penny where I accidentally backed into an engine stand. The clear coat is chipped off this spot.
AS a car guy and honest seller, I have tried to make sure I have mentioned everything I can recall about the car good and not so good. The good is very good and the not so good stuff is little things that are easily corrected and not a major ordeal.
Extra items included: GM Archive docs, Invoice docs, Repro window sticker, owners manual and related docs, build sheet, a set of four (4) correct Original 15" Goodyear Eagle GT’s (raised white letter) tires. Additionally, the original t-type rims will be included in this sale.
