WE4 regal is on a distinguished road
Default saved a turbo regal from the crusher

found this at a local auto wreckers, the wheels were all the wrecker saw as valuable.It was headed for the crusher.

I believe it is a WE4 regal with the LC2 turbo motor and the WO2 trim black out option.

A little rough ,but for 500 bucks including some wheels to get it on the trailer, I figure I got a bargain

cheers

Nice find! Looks like it is 100% stock, and has posi and the aluminum bumper braces, too.

You could make a great car out of this! Definitely worth more than $500. A gem in the rough.

They really wanted the wheels and rear end. I got to them before the rear end came out.

Excellent score! Good luck with the resurrection. Once you get that car back in order that first photo you posted will be priceless.
