The one that started it all! ... 70 Stage 1 restoration

Amen to the cool ass women on our sides. I swear I love green Buick's more and more!!

 

What did Niagara plating charge to do the bumpers? Ken did a motor for me about 7 years ago. It was a good one!

 

My wife just surprised me with an early Fathers Day gift. Like I said, she’s amazing ... her graphic artist friend Sam Villareale drew us a “then and now” poster with “The one that started it all”. Seems like a fitting way to end this yearlong restoration thread!
Hope it’s been entertaining! The End

 

Great colors, dual chrome mirrors and man pedal.

 

I had the pleasure to talk to Tom today. What a nice guy. And to read this thread and hear the story behind this car? Priceless! This is the kind of things that makes me love cars..sometimes they speak to you. And your right, you had the means and persistence to have it done and see it through..I agree. You owed it to the car for the awesome memories it gave you. Thanks for sharing such a cool story! Kicking everyone’s asses with a Stage 1!
