Thread: 1999 Regal GS Turbo failure...

Dhamn deer....did you cut and filet it for deer steaks?
I hate to see this especially with it being the newer investment from the GTP.

The plan is to turn this accident into a positive. Ive already found a black parts car that has good panels. I also found a couple other things to make it a little more interesting.

So heres a list of parts needed:

Hood
Driver and Passenger fender
Drivers door
Front and Rear bumper cover
Passenger rocker cover

Im also grabbing a rear 60/40 fold down seat as an upgrade.

The total cost for me to fix so far is roughly $400. I found a parts car but it sold yesterday but luckily i found a black GS at the junkyard.

What is insurance saying? Or you not tell them?

Thats a cool find. Hope the bumper paint happens to be better on it lol.

Headlight not on list? You probably have already done that part eh. Oh wait... this isn't a wreck list its a resto / upgrade list. Or that was a breakdancing deer. Anyhow, sweet.

Nice!....glad to hear all is coming out in a positive way for you.

I already had a back up headlight lol. I wanted to do some retrofits but that may have to wait.

Hopefully i have enough left over for some go-fast stuff.

when you take the back seat take the clips in the bottom for the bottom seat cushion. you need them so the bottom front locks to the floor.

thats a great idea. not having the fly back up on ya and slaming shut is a good thing

deer must have wanted you to take that zzp sticker off the drivers side door...........

smart deer.

In all seriousness, I think that the blower whine confused the deer.

Poor 82' El Camino....


Glad your ok.

But what about the deer? I would have tagged that sucker and brought it home.

Guys, i added a thing.

I might want that push start from the prix......possibly!

The push start button is still in it lol. I need to find where all the wires go instead of cutting them out. Im a little more focused no the regal at the moment.

Got some new ZZP Trailing arms for $60

So i made some progress today in repairing the damage from the deer. Apparently the 98 and 99 door wiring harness is different, so i had to swap all of that over. I also got my FP hotwire kit today. Anyway, the car is about 90% of the way repaired. I still have some odds and ends here but it certainly does look a lot better. This spring im going to paint the front bumper cover because the peeling clear coat is annoying as hell. I also need to find a black drivers side fender in better condition. I got it for a discount because it was dented so i cant complain too much. The total cost of repair so far is $225.
