I found this during my daily travels... see if you can find the part of it that infuriated me! :rant: http://tcasuperiorservice.homestead.com/TOMAPRIGLIANO71BUICKGS.html ~Mike '66 Skylark 340-4
Yech. He's either A. A kid with way too much money or B. reading way too much "chevy high performance" or C. stuck in the 80's.
I especially like the 2 statements"I took all the molding off the car and had them put on a $5000 paint job" Then just below "I still don't like the way the paint is,so Ill be painting it one more time after the car is finished.What is this person thinking? If I spent that much coin on a paint job,it better be exceptional.I am not a fan of this but am lesser fan of his grammar.Man his story about the motor is hilarious though.Wrong piston rings etc.I say ditch the wing,chevy motor and lower the rear and it would look better. Pat

It Appears to be a skylark not a GS look at this pic. It has Skylark emblems on the Quarters, He only wishes it was a 71 GS.
Someone please invite this guy to a local track for some edumahcation ou: He wanted to go faster......... so he put in a Cheby with the wrong sized rings :spank: George N., JH or Randy please find this guy and set him straight :Smarty: Beth :grin:
It's obvious to me and perhaps many others that this young man's living area must look like Darwin's waiting room. 600 HP, ya right!
A CHEBBY MOTOR IN A BUICK!! :rant: :rant: :error: that is a crime punishable by cutting off his right foot,and forcing him to drive a yugo!! FRIENDS.DON'T LET FRIENDS SAY CHEBBY :Smarty:
At least a 71 GS was spared of his unique desire to create a nasty display of car butchering. WRONG SIZE PISTON RINGS?????? Oh boy.... :spank: :blast:
I can only imagine how unstreetable that small block is in order for it to make the horsepower to "make it fast". He could have made more power with a stock Buick 455....dumb ****!! High 8s...yea right...LOL BTW the wing is a nice touch. LMAO More proof that it doesn't have to come from Japan to be a ricer.
I dont even know where to start, but what the hell is that on the back of his car, I thought only folks who drove imports wasted there money on ten foot high wings that create absolutely no down force at the speeds they will be going. Second of all I know most people dont like the part of him putting in a chevy motor, but what about the stripes and the cowl induction hood? This car is everything short of an imported chevelle. My last opinion is that he needs a set of chrome crub feelers, and maybe some love tassels, that would be appropriate.
Save the Buick. Let us educate this young man. Let us do it quickly. This Buick deserves to be saved and it is not too late, I hope. I will try to contact him and direct him to this site.
Good luck on that one, but impossible feats have been surpassed before, even Jesus rose from the grave.
Low 9's high 8's...hold on hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah....ugh (just fell on the floor laughing) hahahahahahahhah At least his web site is OK. Typical young buck reading way too many Hot Rod magazines and listening to way too many bench racing Chevy owners works part time while going to school making next to nothing. He'll dump all his money into it and then later dump the entire project to buy a used ricer, because it is way cheaper for his budget. The car will end up on e-bay as a Chevy Grand Sport sporting 1000 h.p and that can run in the 8's (but never had the chance at the track) Tons of money invested all the best bla, bla, bla, bla selling for a dreamers price.ou: Maybe in about 4-5 years a decent roller will make it's way in the bi-lines for sale minus the "chevy engine" he will forever blame his failure on Buicks. hahahahahahahahahahha
Damn Andrew, I nearly wet my pants lauging when I read that last reply of yours!!!!!!!!!!!Man,now have to go to the bathroom!Too Funny.Yeah Rick,I also like the part where he beat a supposed 11 sec car.He needs a trip to the track to get humbled. Pat
