    Thanks I will call them ,heard nothing but good things about them. I would rather have someone just rebuild it locally but dont trust the machine shops around here with a Buick.

    Buickman,
    What is your first name? If you haven't joined the BPG and the N.E. GS/GN club, you really should. John Csordas is the director(NCsord4@aol.com) and alot of members are up your way. The club website is www.ne-gsca.com I am sure John could suggest a machine shop for you as well as member Rob Chilenski. Rob really knows Buicks( He has a 9 sec racecar and an 11 sec street car) and his business(Stage 1 Automotive) specializes in Buick high performance. He is located in Pompton Plains N.J. and his # is 973-839-4900 Good Luck.

    Buickman,
    There is a Sportwagon for sale on this forum with a nice rebuilt 350 motor in it.
    Sounds like the body is gone in the 1/4's. I could use the rear and some interior pieces.
    You interested in the motor? Owner says it has some TA parts and only 600 miles.
    Car is in Pa, I am in Kingston NY.
    PM me if interested.

    If you grab that wagon for parts, let me know, I may want some of the stuff...

    I do have a couple of guys here on the east coast who could do this relatively quickly if you are interested.
