admin — Sat, 02 Nov 2024 17:52:10 +0000

A good old American lowrider joins the lineup of SEMA 2024 specials. This 1987 Buick Regal (model number 32500-FL03 ; 24-127) is skinned in Metallic Purple and features an intricate and vibrant stripping pattern indicative to lowrider car culture. Further enhancing the Regal’s body styling is a set of custom Chrome wire wheels and low profile thin white wall tires. A look through the clear windows offers a view of the Cool Grey stock bench seat interior while nestled between the inner fender wells lies a stock powerplant. This beauty is also offered in a chase variation (400 pieces), easily recognizable by its Chrome Gold time, bumpers, and rims.

M2 Machines 2024 Buick Regal Releases

admin — Sun, 15 Sep 2024 22:33:47 +0000

The Buick Regal/Grand National/GNX is by far the most produced G-Body die cast to date, so it’s no surprise that M2 Machines has been laying it on thick in 2024 with their releases. With everything from a Regal Limited to a GNX, almost every sub-genre of car culture has been covered (big wheels aside). Speaking of which, I’m surprised one of these companies hasn’t collaborated with Forgiato/Rucci/etc… to release a “big wheel racing” die cast series in limited numbers. As for M2 Machines, my favorite thus far has been the 87 Regal Limited Chase in black/gold. What’s yours?

M2 Machines 1987 Buick Grand National Custom

admin — Fri, 05 Apr 2024 14:57:03 +0000

M2 Machines is finally stepping into the G-Body game with an assortment of Buick Grand Nationals. They also seem to have a partnership with Coca-Cola, which is why so many of their die cast vehicles are branded as such. This A38 release is starting to hit Ebay and stores, but with a production run of 9,600 versions, don’t pay over MSRP unless you check all of your local stores first. The “Super Chase” will be limited to 250 units, which is sure to cause a sur-charge, but that’s still a larger production run than most chase vehicles from Johnny Lightning, Greenlight, and others.

$5,900 Carbon Fiber Monte Carlo Doors from Ultra Carbon

admin — Sat, 20 Jan 2024 21:16:37 +0000

If you have an extra $5,900 in your G-Body budget to spend, consider lacing your project with a set of carbon fiber doors from Ultra Carbon.

Established by Greg Shampine in 2012, Ultra-Carbon originated in a garage, quickly gaining national recognition for its innovative and exquisite carbon fiber parts. Breaking away from conventional norms, the venture, known for crafting unique structural components, is currently in the testing phase for advanced releases. Beyond structural elements, Ultra-Carbon’s commitment to quality extends to producing beautiful body parts with clear carbon as a standard feature, offering a clear, UV-resistant gel coat finish. Whether customers prefer the pristine appearance or opt for paint or clear coat, Ultra-Carbon ensures an easy, cost-effective installation without the need for extensive bodywork.

Cost-effective? Yes. To have a shop custom make these doors, you may be over $18k in labor. According to Ultra Carbon, they have over 180 hours into a set of door molds. If that’s nothing to a boss, remember someone has to install the internals, drill out and mount the mirror location. Wait, the mirrors, you’re not just going to throw your heavy G-Body mirrors on these are you? Better invest in some Carbon Fiber mirrors as well.
