    About 4 months ago I purchased a 1977 Buick Regal with 29,000 miles on it. So far I have upgraded to new shocks, new front end bushings, new rear suspension pieces, lowering springs and a close ratio steering box. I also converted the rear brakes from drum to discs and added new wheels and 17 inch tires. I have been reading as much as I can on this board to learn about Buick powerplants as all my prior experience has been with Chevy. My goal is to build a road car that I can enjoy driving anywhere in comfort, and after putting 400 miles on it over the weekend I believe I am headed in the right direction. IMG_0521 (1).JPG

    Welcome to the forum. Great looking Regal. If you want to make that smog 350 run a bit better (faster?) this forum can get you there. Show us more pictures of your baby.

    The 17 inch wheels look great.
