Hi folks, I am new to Turbo Buicks, but not to Buicks in general. I also own a 1972 Buick GS Stage 1 4-speed replica and a 2014 Verano. My first car was also a hand-me-down 1978 two-door Skylark. Anyway, just yesterday (October 8, 2017) a 1987 Regal Turbo T Limited landed at my place. I bought it from Kevin (ss/gn on this board). I took it for my maiden voyage in it (I didn't even test drive it before I bought it, in fact I never even sat in the car) tonight. Wow, no wonder these cars have such a strong following! That turbo is intoxicating.
Kevin was fantastic to deal with and he did sooo much to make the car beautiful and and functional. He is super-meticulous and he has offered to help me whenever I need it. In fact, he sent me a list of Turbo Buick-related sites, including this one.
I can't wait to get more seat time in this beast.

Welcome! Kevin is a great dude! I met him at BG this year. Ask your questions and you'll get a no nonsense approach to answers on this board.

Thanks, guys, I look forward to spending some time here.

Greetings and salutations!! :cheers: May the boost be with you!

Thanks for the welcome, guys. I've only taken it out for a couple of really short jaunts (I'm not going to certify it until the spring). I did a little brake stand, holding the brakes until it built some boost. Holy crap! Instant tire smoke. Love it!

This TR will give all your '72 all it can handle and more! Lol
