    This is my second '73, I had a 455 Regal in the mid seventies.. You're right, but they are getting more popular. :bglasses:

    Thanks, the wheels are Boyd Cottington Smoothies, 17"x9.5" with 285/40's on the rear and 255/45's up front. I like the look of them as well as the TT II's and not as many people have them. :grin:

    Nice clean 73 has the dash (woodgrain) been redone as it looks like new?
    I"ve been the states 8 times & have only seen 2 73 Century's, regals on the roads. So they are not that common there. They really stand out amonst the late model cars.

    I personally think the rear end looks neater on the 73's than the 74-77 models but nobody has the same likes

    The gauge surround is an NOS piece from The Buick Farm in Delaware, the Luxus has an interior color surround, mine was black to match the interior and in my opinion looked cheap with the rest of the dash having wood grain. All my wood grain is exellent since the car is a garage kept 44,500 mile car that I was lucky to find. The sun and exposure is what ruins it. :TU:

    Did anyone notice the tach in place of my dead clock? I thought it was neat, must be a good fit since nobody noticed. :laugh:
