The poly cast wheels were an option, code PE3, for any ‘78 Regal. I’m pretty sure they were one year only because ‘79 Regals got the PE1 designer wheel option & PE4 turbine wheel option (the latter being Sport Coupe only).

Up for sale is a gauge cluster bezel for a ‘78-83 Regal or ‘78-81 Century with U30 gauge package (or a factory turbo engine). It’s not perfect, but it’s far better than most I’ve seen. There’s the obvious vintage AAA sticker, the black plastic trim pieces could stand to be polished, and there...

Sounds good! I also have a very nice gauge cluster bezel that I’d sell.

Up for sale is a set of coolant/water temp & volt gauges for the ‘78-‘83 Regal & ‘78-‘81 Century with U30 gauge package. They’re in excellent condition, though the clear plastic lenses could use a polish. I’m asking $40 + shipping for everything shown.

Up for sale is a nice used A/C & heater control unit with pigtails. All levers have knobs & move freely. Visually I’d rate the unit as excellent driver condition. I’m asking $40 + shipping.

Up for sale is a very nice used blower motor harness for the 1978-1987 GM g body with heater only/non-A/C setup. This is the engine compartment side harness that connects to the blower motor & blower motor resistor. I’m asking $25/shipped.

Up for sale are 2 NOS GM tailpipe/muffler hangers. Both show a bit of oxidation & shelf wear, but overall they’re in fantastic condition considering their age & being bare steel. Photos 1-3 show the left side muffler/tailpipe hanger, p/n- 25504485. Photos 4-6 show the right side tailpipe...

Yes, they’re sold, but I forgot to update the ad. My apologies!

Up for sale is a 2 door power window setup. I pulled these parts from a ‘79 Regal 20+ years ago, and they’ve been in dry storage ever since. The following items are included: - left and right power window regulators - left and right window motors - power window wiring harness Both regulators...

In theory, since the Cutlass & Regal used the same b pillar trim with the landau top, the non-landau trim should work between the 2. But there are definitely different p/n’s involved, so maybe they don’t interchange. Some non-landau Regals also used a chrome piece over the b pillar, and don’t...

I have the RH drip rail trim (see pic). It’ll need to be cleaned & polished, but it’s not bent at all. I’d ask $20 plus shipping for it. Are you working on a ‘78-‘80 Regal or ‘78-‘80 Cutlass? Even though the drip rails & landau top b pillar trim is the same, I believe the non-landau top b...

In ‘78 the Regal came standard with a 3 speed manual if it had the 3.2L v6, and standard with a 4 speed manual if it had the 3.8L (except for California cars or cars with the NA6 high altitude pkg., which were all automatics). The other versions that didn’t have a manual trans available were...

Congrats!

You both have been very helpful! I got everything ordered tonight to make my own pigtail.

Thanks! According to 1978 Buick Chassis Service Manual the p/n for the plug is 8911921. Now I just need to find one….

I didn’t take a ton of pics when I was trying to fit the 350 with the A/C heater box, but here’s all of what I have (a few of which are in the build thread).

In all the digging I did leading up to my swap (which you referenced in the first link above), I seemed to see a lot of mixed information, but it made me fairly optimistic that the heater box modifications could/would be minimal. Obviously in my case that wasn’t true. Another common train of...

Yeah, I’ve seen that too. Definitely a better setup than the factory piece, but I’m trying to make everything as factory-appearing as I can.
