    Thanks guys, I bought it as a project truck not finished about 3 years ago. Slowly working on it and had my good friends employees and himself help on the side as he owns a custom rod shop. Had to paint and fix a lot of the things that were done wrong as best we could. They tried to run a single piece drift shaft on it. The drive shaft is over 7 ft and made of 4 inch steel. Had to go with a 2 piece and hanger. They were going to use poppers but I went back to the door handles and it was a bitch to get the power windows to work without the vent windows. The windows hardly fit down in the door because of the angle it drops into the door. I still need to get the auto start to work, gas gauge and get the fans to kick in when the AC is on.
    I must say it does get so looks. I will be back on my Buicks soon as my heart is with the 67 GS 400 4 speed ragtop Chris sold me (can you believe it was 14 years ago Chris?)

    We've had some good times and I owe you more than you can imagine. Back to the 50s isn't too far away.
