- Thu Jul 26, 2012 1:59 pm #312013 Here is my "Sleeper Boat". I sold her a few months back, but I figured I would still share. Miss this car and truly wish I did not sell it, but the awful fuel mileage as a DD was killin my wallet However, proceeds from the Buick sale are helping me with my EG build

It is a 1981 - 1982 because the chassis and body are 1981 Regal, engine was a 1982 Regal GN motor (3.8L Carb. Turbocharged Non-Intercooled V6). She was a real sleeper. Raced some Stangs and Maros with her before. She beat stangs left and right. She would get some Maros with LS1s. Very fun and relaxing car to drive. If you have a chance to get your hands on one of these, DO IT!!! Lol. They ride VERY smooth.

Anyhow, here she is:

Yep. They are often underestimated. Especially this one. Everyone took the first look at it and thought it was piss poor slow, but I can assure you, when you put that pedal down and that whistlin started, you got pushed back into the seat lol. I miss it. But I look at it this way, it is helping me finish what I started.
