    Nice ride!
    Interesting color.
    I'm picking up a 70 myself. Hope to do the same.
    Are the headers shorties or comp?

    Headers are the full length comps.
    The original color is goldish but its been repainted everywhere but the floor pans.
    Even the fenders and doors were removed for painting, all trim, bumpers, door panels ect.
    Was done the right way.
    I like it though, unique!

    Did you do the engine install?
    Did you have to modify the headers to make the fit?
    I've heard some have had to slightly dent the one tube to clear the stearing column.
    What color is that? Almost looks like a wine color.
    And just another note, I see you are a fairly new member.
    Welcome to the boards. You have probably seen in the past few weeks that we are a pretty friendly bunch. We like to use our first names(and last if you wish) in our posts so we know who we are communicating with.
    You would be surprised, some of us have never met but we "talk" back and forth and kid each other like we've known each other all our lives.
    We range in age from 17 to sixty something but because we share a common love for our Buicks it keeps us at the same level.
    Enjoy your stay and share frequently.

    Bill-
    I didnt do the swap myself, the header dosent appear to be dented at all to me but it is a tight fit!
    I have a post on the color section seeking opinions on what color it is.
    Have a few opinions so far.
    I signed my name to all my other posts, must have forgot that time
