    One of the things I like about Buicks is that they are different.
    You are doing something somewhat different even in the Buick world.
    Thanks for sharing. :)

    thank you! yeah no saved these specific cars. they weren't considered to be an old school cool muscle car. the mid 70's cars were old and worn out by the time my generation was turning 16 and getting our licenses in the mid 80's. they were perfect first cars for young drivers. im glad we saved this one and its in surprisingly good shape.

    a suggestion for you, turn that hood over on the side, with the flat part on the floor. you will get bent corners the way you have it now. Hoods weigh too much!
