    I wanted to say I friggin love this board! Do you know how much time/blood/sweat/money we save each other? Imagine trying to do the stuff you guys do back in 1970? It would take for ever!

    Whoever keeps this thing running, thank you.

    I also belong to another board that involves handguns. These guys are always looking for an argument, and nothing ever seems to get done.

    Anyways, thanks. I'm back into Buicks after a 10 year absence, and this board is just what the doctor ordered!

    :beer :) :beer :) :beer

    It's a 1970. I bought it in 1991, then my parents bought it from me in 1994, got sick of it, it sat for 5+ years, and I bought it back (I still have the window sticker!)

    The money is flyin' out of my wallet now!

    What is "it"? Skylark, GS, Stage 1?? Do tell.

    Dang, sorry. It's a 1970 Skylark "Sport Coupe" according to the window sticker. Back in '91 I made $5.00 an hour. A GS was way out of reach for sure. I would like a 455 some day...maybe...but this car is special to me. We'll see what happen's now that I make $5.50 an hour :Brow:

    Good start and I like the wheels. Now to make up for 10 lost years. Not a better time than the present to get to work on a Buick.

    Hey guys,

    Thanks for the compliments. The wheels are actually new American Racing Torque Thrust 2's in 16". In person they look alot better than the old "Cragars". They seem to work on the old A-bodys.:Brow:
