*** Important information on page 10!!  Describes the current state of the car.  Read Project #4 to get the most updated information!! ***

 

Welcome to my newly redesigned page! All of the pages have been updated and organized to provide more complete information and a cleaner layout. I have added many new pictures of existing modifications, mainly to make it more up-to-date. I have also added pictures and information for a few new modifications that I have added since the last update. So, feel free to browse around all the pages!

 

Below, are a couple of shots of both my cars, together (both pictures taken from page 9):

This is my 1995 Buick LeSabre Custom. I bought it from a friend of my parents in August of 2000, with around 244K miles, for $2000. The car now has over 293,000 miles on it, and counting, and still runs amazingly well for its age and miles. I don't drive this car as much now, mainly because it is getting to a point that I need to really start investing in some major repairs – but that will slowly happen over time.

Below are a few images of how the car currently looks on the exterior. Below the images, I have added brief descriptions on the content each page contains.

As you can see, it does not look very much like a normal LeSabre Custom. That was part of my goal as I started modding the car, to make it stand out from other LeSabres by giving it a more aggressive look – along the lines of a sports luxury vehicle.  And the truth is, I want to turn this car into what it could have been, especially if the higher (meaning Limited) trim level was purchased.  That's what actually makes working on this car fun -- it wouldn't be the same if it already had most of these options!

Below is a picture I took when I hit 290K:

It's cool man. I think im scrapping that idea anyway, cuz now I've got more important projects to deal with, and I need to start saving up for college. I am probably getting a 3800 series III L67 in the fall for college. It'll be all bored out and suped up to drop in when I graduate. Don't get excited though cuz that won't be for at least 5 years or so. lol

Hey man! Just stoppin by with another question for you. I remember reading about your attempts at trying to swap your custom guage cluster with a limited cluster. Do you know why it didnt work? I want to swap in a digital cluster. I saw one that fits perfectly but I dont want to spend $800 for it not to work lol Thanks!
