The car has come to be known as Lucky 13, mostly due to the fact that I purchased it on Friday the 13th, it's black, and my temp tag ended in a 13.Sean Weltonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15789448508935061607noreply@blogger.comBlogger2125RegalGShttp://feedburner.google.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-486749619477021888.post-50492415769091563812008-03-05T07:21:00.000-08:002008-03-05T07:28:12.322-08:002008-03-05T07:28:12.322-08:00Here are some pictures of the GS as it is now.

It was a good car, but it had developed some pretty serious body rust after 16 Ohio winters. It was never really that fast, which left me wanting a car to replace it, and one with lots of power. My '98 Regal was the first car that I ever knew what I wanted before I bought it. I looked for months, and finally found the black Gran Sport I had been looking for, sitting on a car lot. Within one week, it was sitting in my driveway. The car came to be known as Lucky13, as I bought it on a Friday the 13th, it's black, and my temp tag ended in 13! Here are some pictures of it as it was the day I brought it home.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t287/Olympus8MP/newregal_800x600.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t287/Olympus8MP/newregal_800x600.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />My '98 Regal GS as it was the day I brought it home.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t287/Olympus8MP/motor_800x600.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t287/Olympus8MP/motor_800x600.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />The motor, in stock form, the day I brought it home.<br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/486749619477021888-7928944201937180831?l=buickv6.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Sean Weltonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15789448508935061607noreply@blogger.com0
