    Uncle Tony's Garage featured a trip to Kiwi's Garage today to check out and recount the history of the Buick Nailhead. Uncle Tony may be a Mopar fanatic, but he has a secret love of Buicks, and states how he loves the Nailhead.

    I don’t think that is a 66 425 as claimed. It is green.

    I was wondering about that, since my '66 425 was red when I got it and had never been rebuilt. Good catch!

    66electrafied Just tossing in my nickel's worth

    I'm slowly turning a bunch of YouTube Mopar guys onto Buicks; - at Cold War Motors we're doing a budget Nailhead build. It's a 1961 364 that will eventually go into a 1959 Buick LeSabre flat-top.

    Yup, plus it has a Carter AFB?
    Guessing its from a 65 Wildcat since it has the SP400

    Yep, I have respect for Uncle Tony.
    The first I heard of him was his review of a Turbo Buick back in 86 or 87
    My respect for him comes from him being a die hard Mopar guy BUT he respects other makes also, he doesn’t down them like a lot of other brand loyalists.
