Still dressed in its factory-correct, striking black paint and enhanced with a variety of well-chosen mechanical upgrades, this 1987 Buick Regal T Restomod offers a sort of automotive bridge between its original era and the one that followed. It retains a thoroughly authentic mid-'80s appearance, with a deep shine you can see from a distance away, and chrome bumpers and trim that are in uniformly clean shape. Its consistent body panel alignment confirms that the passing years haven't compromised its structural integrity and its smoked-tinted T-tops, an outstanding feature that combines the open-air enjoyment of a convertible with markedly better sound control when in place, really fit nicely.
Climb inside and you're likely to notice right off the bat that the gray cloth interior still retains its deep color, no small feat considering it's highly likely original. The accenting chrome pieces have a uniform shine to them and up front, the dash wears a clean pad across the top, with an array of upgraded gauges in its instrument cluster. The factory air conditioning blows cold and strong to keep you and your passengers comfortable throughout the year and there's an aftermarket AM/FM stereo with an auxiliary port and both Bluetooth and Sirius connectivity in place, although the accompanying power antennae will need a bit of attention to get it back to proper form.
This distinctive ride is powered by a factory-correct 307-cubic-inch V8 that's equipped with a Rochester four-barrel carburetor, as well as a dual air intake to optimize its performance. It sits in a nice, orderly compartment, surrounded by fresh hoses and belts and properly routed wiring, and pairs with a 5-speed manual Tremec TKX transmission that puts full control of its output in the hands of the driver, with an overdrive gear that will really come in handy if you plan on frequent highway expeditions. And, since this Buick rides on an upgraded coilover suspension, it offers a more refined ride, enhanced cornering ability and a level of adjustability that would be impossible in factory configuration. A sizable aluminum radiator takes the place of the original to help keep temperatures under control, while power steering and four-wheel power disc brakes make navigation and fade-resistant stops a breeze.
