Projects Buick Century 1955 Kustom Build

Your Buick is looking 'GREAT'...Love the antenna's, head lights, tail lights, and specially the gas door.

 

Josef,
The Century was the "best of the breed" in '55. Always wanted one of these when I was a kid. Same body as the Special, but they stuffed the 322 cubic inch Nailhead of the Roadmaster in it. Too bad you didn't have a good one of those 'cause it would be "just perfect" in that beautiful machine your building. (Buick resurrected the Century name in '54...kept it through '58.)

Your work is amazing...best of luck with the rest of the build !!

Love the firewall color.

 

I'm not much of a GM guy, but I love this Buick. Especially the front and rear end treatments, they more than look the part. Subbed!

 

Like the look, Great workmanship, very impressive and glad to see another Buick !!

 

Thanks for all the kind words and sorry for the lack of updates Hardly any activity with the Buick lately have been busy with plenty of other things in life, like ***ties and beer But i thought i could post some pictures of my other rides, did a quick paintjob on both of them this summer, the Shoebox was done in 24h First off is the Panhead

 

And here is my -50 Ford

 

its still GM just put a big bat wing air cleaner on it and don't sweat it

 

You got some pretty sweet **** there I'd say bad azz shoebox and and the bike too !!
