  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Good morning all , beautiful day here in the Midwest
    Haven’t posted in a while , nor had I had one of the Buicks roadworthy , until a few weeks ago …someone in the Buick circle said there was a show coming up, bring your kids over …I said sure we can take a ride.

    No, with your car…. Lol need a kick in the ass sometime.
    After a second divorce and relocating myself back home where I belong , unboxed all the stuff I bought and put the Bredbox back together to enjoy a bit before I can’t this year.

    thank God for friends right ?
    Cheers …

    I like it! 350 w/3.73 & a 200-4R should be quick.

    It’s not bad , the drive shaft split in the middle a few years back , governor exploded with that event and the one I replaced with isn’t to my liking , and was hoping the converter I just put in would have been a lot looser
    However replacing the 670 cfm steet avenger carb with the 750 and new fuel system and more has made a huge difference, at least on the ass dyno around town. We will see

    Max Damage I'm working on it!

    To me that is a true sleeper. A beige station wagon? Doesn't get much lower key then that.

    I love it!
