Hey everyone!   Up for sale is my 1986 Buick Regal T-Type.   This T-Type has been a Texas car it’s whole life until 2 years ago when it was moved here and kept in a heated and dehumidified garage while the entire car was overhauled.   No expense was spared while building this car!   Body is RUST-FREE and has 97k original miles with only one repaint and still looks great!  Engine and all parts have less than 500 miles on them.  Transmission has 50 miles on it, yes 50 miles and was just done by Jimmy’s Performance Transmission in Mudelein, IL.   If you’re into the Turbo Buick scene you’ll know that Jimmy’s is the only place in the Midwest you want your 200-4R done at. 

Here is a list of things done to the T-Type:

-#’s matching motor/transmission

-Stock block, rebuilt, king bearings, new front cover, high pressure oil pump, water pump, Cometic head gaskets and Felpro gaskets throughout engine.   This is a stock rotating assembly.  Heads have been completely rebuilt with new guides, seals, valve job with new Manley Stainless valves and 100# valve springs.

-Painted heads and block black, powder coated the upper and lower intake.

-Brand New Jimmy’s Performance Transmissions 2004-R Transmission and Jimmy’s Torque converter.  Fresh with 50 miles on the while setup!  This was build to handle mid-10 second ET’s.

These are just some of the items I can think of off the top of my head.  WAY TOO MUCH to list!  I have tons of receipts! 

I still have a few things left to finish on the car but nothing that will stop anyone from driving it and turning heads!   Here are a few things that are next on my list.  It needs a new headliner, needs new rubber trim around doors/windows/trunk (there are complete kits made that are easy to install).   Typical stuff you’d see on a 28 year old Texas car.  Also passenger power window motor is slow, I would replace this sooner than later.

These cars are getting harder to find, and are very hard to find in this shape.  There are tens of thousands of dollars into this car in addition to originally buying it. 

This setup is enough to run into the 10’s all day long.  Build with the intention of running 28#’s of boost.  Currently on 22psi boost.  You could run this on regular 93 octane gas with a different chip (very easy to get and not expensive).  E85 is cheap by me and is the choice of fuel for forced induction.

I have many more pictures of this car, I’ll send them to serious buyers upon request.


If you have any questions please message me or call/text me @ 847-420-31FiveOne

 

Thanks,

Tim

eBay Find of the Day: 1981 DeLorean with 570-hp twin-turbo Buick V6 [w/videos]

Mon, 23 Dec 2013

"Are you telling me that you built a time machine... out of a DeLorean?" So asked one Marty McFly of his mentor Dr. Emmett Brown, who replied: "The way I see it, if you're gonna build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some style?"
Doc Brown was right, of course: with an exotic mid-engine layout, gullwing doors and stainless steel body, the DeLorean DMC-12 sure looked the part. It just needed a little more juice. Well this one might not have 1.21 gigawatts of time-bending power - that'd be more than one and a half million horsepower - but it does have more than the 150 hp in the the standard 2.8-liter V6.
That's because this particular DeLorean has had its stock Peugeot Renault Volvo engine swapped out for a Buick-sourced, all-aluminum, 4.3-liter V6 from the Grand National. Dutteiller Performance didn't leave the engine in stock form, either: while they were swapping it out, they added a pair of turbochargers, new pistons, crank, cams and much, much more.

Buick Envision crossover to premiere in China

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

Buick currently offers two crossovers: the compact Encore and the extra-large Enclave, leaving plenty of room to slot a mid-size crossover in between. And that's just what Buick is planning on doing. In China, anyway.
Previewed in the teaser above, Buick's upcoming new crossover is cloaked and nestled in between its aforementioned stablemates-to-be. Set to be unveiled in China sometime later this year, the model has been confirmed to wear the name Envision - at least in that market. That's the name which the concept version wore three years ago, but we're still waiting on word over whether that name will carry over to the US version or whether we should expect something different like Anthem. But we have to admit that Envision fits better in the brand's crossover naming scheme.
Shanghai GM isn't saying much about the Envision in the press release below, aside from it having "dynamic and assertive styling" backed by all-wheel drive and stop/start ignition. The last time Buick offered a mid-size crossover in North America was with the Pontiac Aztek-based Rendezvous that was discontinued seven years ago.

Buick Envision to go on sale in third quarter of 2015

Mon, 06 Oct 2014

Following an earlier concept and successive teasers, Buick revealed the new Envision crossover a little over a month ago. The thing is, it was launched in China, for China. The question, then, is whether it will make the jump to the North American market. And the answer is: quite possibly.
According to division sales chief Duncan Aldred in speaking to Edmunds, Buick is looking into the prospect of bringing the Envision to the US: "We can't confirm anything, but clearly it is a very nicely designed and executed product that is very much a Buick," said Aldred.
If and when the compact crossover would appear in US showrooms, it would slot in between the smaller Encore and the larger Enclave. It would likely be offered in front-wheel drive, all-wheel drive and mild hybrid configurations. Sources expect it to arrive in the third quarter of 2015 as a competitor to the likes of the Mercedes GLA, Lexus NX and Lincoln MKC.
