Thread: Regal hood

I drove a Century to Waukesha once but other than that.... my only Buford was this- with GSX chin spoiler from Poston added. I still think the old GS scoops might be a potentially sharp idea if scaled right.

Thats perfect. $109 plus the cost of fiberglass and paint. I hope the hours of blending will be worth it

speaking of non w-bodies, i'm currently helping my dad revamp his 76 2 door malibu. We are ripping out the cammed 383 for some lq4/ls3 fun.

I dig those, my bro had a 73 Laguna I used to drive a lot. Sounds like loads o fun! More fun with that custom trans xmember on a pellet cat smogger. That scoop is gonna take some work too, looks like its peaked in the center. It could be cool though.

I already have to find a good drivers fender because i replaced the damaged one with a less damaged one.

I like how http://www.bork.ca/pics/cars/auto_sh...20ft%20det.jpg looks with the car (minus the side scoops), but the GN piece looks a lot less conspicuous, which, IMO, is best for a Regal - sounds nice and cheap too, lol.

Lol Scott. I swear sometimes you an I echo each other's posts.
That concept regal was a great idea minus the rims. The badge on the grill is actually found on the newer buicks
I believe there is still a lot of good info over at RGS. Gy and myself been looking through the hood ideas over the years and finally decided on the MPD

Also look at the MPD hood that been used in his turbo regal It was made for the turbo

I actually just bought the plastic chrome tri shield emblem from a 2011 regal on ebay just now lol. IMO that grill looks good and i feel like it would set my regal apart slightly from the rest.

It does. And I would have done the same if it wasn't for the fact I use the gsx grill. Good choice !

I figure $200+ vs $60ish and some dremel work.

It's better then the gutter gaurd grills I seen since I was like 16 haha
one thing that hasn't carried on over the years was using black panty hose in the days before taillight tinting was common. Lmao I'll never forget those !
reason I say that is because that's what some have said looks like what they used for the concept grill

I cut the welds out on my 76 EC fender and removed the two inner pieces at the front then straightened everything and welded it back together. It was fairly cake to save the fender. I still think you could fab a steel scoop cheapest.
