    Turned Key... 455 started..... Ran..... Stayed Cool.... Didn't Leak..... Sounded GOOOOOOOOOOD! Now to build the inner fenders and new front brakes! 1983 Regal Wagon Buick 464 10.25:1 3.90 gear and TH400 tranny with Sat Night Special Converter..... Cant wait to drive it!

    Check out the fan shroud.... Its Buick GS 455 shroud... It bolted right up and let me run a clutch fan. Just had to notch a couple spots.

    Yes it has working cruise control and AC.... hot rod with style...

    Pic of the Wagon itself right after paint before installing the 455. In the fall it is getting a fresh coat of 2011 Camaro Green!

    Thanks, I really enjoy it. I just moved away from Dayton, OH. I see that is where you are from

    I started my '65 wagon for the first time(with the Stage 2 engine)on Friday 6/3
    but I've got plenty of work to finish it.

    I love that new start anticipation feeling.... Will it run or will it detonate?
