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

2019 Buick LaCrosse Sport Touring isn't that sporty

Mon, Jul 2 2018

The 2019 Buick LaCrosse Sport Touring is presumably a new, sportier version of Buick's large sedan. And on the surface, it does look more exciting. It has less chrome trim than its counterparts, the grille gets a body color surround and a black wire mesh insert. It has a simple little spoiler at the back, 19-inch wheels, and the all-important badging. We can't imagine Ford is thrilled at the use of the "ST" nomenclature on display at the back, though. Unfortunately, Buick hasn't really done anything to actually make this car sportier than other LaCrosse sedans. It has the same 3.6-liter V6 found in other versions making the same 310 horsepower and 268 pound-feet of torque. That power goes through the same nine-speed automatic as the others, too. Additionally, the Sport Touring is only available with front-wheel drive. Still, if you like the style, and the LaCrosse's standard performance is suitable to you, you'll want to know how much it costs. Base price is $41,220. You'll also have a choice of five colors: white, black, red, and two kinds of silver. And if the LaCrosse ST isn't sporty enough for you, you might want to check out the Regal GS. It has the same engine, but with a bit more torque, all-wheel drive, is in a smaller body, and has hatchback versatility.

Question of the Day: Coolest factory-supercharged car?

Thu, Apr 28 2016

Last week, we discussed possible engine-swap recipients for the plentiful-in-every-junkyard Eaton-supercharged GM 3800 V6 engine. The Buicks, Oldsmobiles, and Pontiacs that came with that engine from the factory were reasonably cool, of course, but when you look at all the production cars that have been available with supercharging over the decades you can find some pretty amazing stuff. My personal favorite has to be the Paxton-blown Studebaker Larks of the early 1960s, partly because the Lark was just about the stodgiest-looking, sleepiest little sedan available in America, possibly the most ridiculous recipient of a howling force-fed V8 imaginable, and partly because of the name of the optional supercharged 289-cubic-inch V8 you could get in the Lark: Jet-Thrust! What do you say is the coolest factory-supercharged car of all time? Related Video: Auto News Buick Automotive History Performance Classics supercharger questions

Buick Envision CUV launches in China, is America next?

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

Buick is launching its new midsize Envision crossover in China at the Chengdu Motor Show, where it will slot between the subcompact Encore and larger Enclave. While it might be hard to muster too much excitement about a Chinese-market crossover, don't completely ignore this one. There's a very good chance it could be on sale in North America to fill the same hole in the brand's lineup over here, possibly as a 2016 model.
We recently spied the Envision completely undisguised as it was arriving at the Chengdu show for its debut. The CUV still looks like a stretched Encore from some front angles, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's got a similar oversized grille, hood vents (presumably faux) and large greenhouse as its little brother. Where the midsize CUV differs is its prominent crease running down the side and the different rear treatment, with wing-shaped trim cutting into the taillights.
The interior looks like a pretty nice place to spend time, too, with a predictable mix of leather, wood and metal, and it should be quiet in there with its active noise cancelation system. Infotainment is provided by an eight-inch touchscreen with a touchpad and voice controls.
