1982 Buick Regal Limited Edition review from North America
"A high performance car with a classy look in the inside"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Speedometer cable broke.
Head light switch went bad, lost dash lights.
Factory radio ate tapes.
Front window trim clips are no good, they break and trim starts falling off or you lose it when driving down the street.
General comments?
Seats are in good condition.
Interior is in good condition.
Body is in good condition.
There was nothing wrong with the car when I bought it except, the front window clips for the trim around the window. The interior of the car looks nice. What it lacked was power so I decided to swap motors to give it the power it deserves. The rear end gears need to be replaced so the car could pick up speed faster. Other than that this car moves.
