I haven't been able to do as much on my car latley as I have wanted to but I have been able to get some stuff done none the less :TU: . Since I've had the parts car (got it here in Febuary) I've got this stuff done: Switched taillights and housings Horn system Front emblem Some stainless trim Some Glass Steering Wheel and Column Hood trim BUICK Trunk trim Fuel Gauge Windshield Wiper switch Front Seat Door Panels Fuel Filter (went back to original glass type) Replaced Generator Hooked up original starting system Now I'm working on replacing the rear floor pans as they were not there. I still need to do alot on it but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel (just to start all over on another project :laugh: ) here are some pics of the progress I'l be getting some more as I can. I'll just post a few pics for now.
It won't be too long before it's ready to be painted, only problem is I don't know how I'm gonna do it, I know I want two tone with flames other than that o No:
Thanks, I took it to a car show the other day and it was smoking pretty bad out of the road draft tube so I did a compression test on it and it didn't look good. It's looking like the compression rings on a few of the cylinders are gone :ball: so I'm probably going to be reringing it soon, whenever I do I'm looking for a cam to put in also.
I just love the way your exhaust comes out through the quarter panel. Too cool! :TU: Looking good! :beer
Gerig, in my opinion you shouldnt flame that car. Paint it the glossiest black you can leave the roof white and some red pinstriping or somethin.
I don't know what Im gonna do. I've designed an pinstipped emblem that I'm going to get put on the trunk that's gonna be red and I'm going to have custom port holes made for it. As far as the flames I think I might do a little, if you saw me you'd see why, at my Aunts wedding I was listed as the head arsonist in the order of service :af: :grin:
