    @Cody Walls built an amazing custom in his Delaware shop. You might have seen the pictures of the E Job . In absolutely amazing compe***ion, it managed to score so great hardware.

    Such a great and beautiful car, seeing it in person the pictures don't do it justice. I took quite a few photos of it this weekend, I haven't had a chance to even view them yet, I'm hoping they came out well. I will share them later.

    Beautiful car and very well done. Am I missing something or does this car not have any headlights?

    Seems the Buick's of all years have a renewed interest as of late, as witnessed by several prime examples again this year.

    I watched a video last night on YouTube called Hot Rod Jamboree part 1. At about 1:23 into the video is your truck. I scared the **** out of my wife screaming, Hey, I know that guy !

    Looking forward to your pictures

    Beautiful, beautiful car. I’m not the biggest fan of gold paint, but on this car it is stunning. And that interior…..WOWEE!

    I saw the car in the early stages of its build and Cody said he was building it for his wife. I think it may be a while before she has a chance to take it to the grocery store... ;)

    I think the movie "Rainman" helped make those Buicks cool again. Maybe they will rival '49 - '51 Mercs in the future.

    It sold last year at Amelia for $335,000.

    I sure do regret not keeping my Dad's '53. That straight eight alone was enough to make it cool.

    That Slonaker Award compe***ion is no joke. I absolutely LOVE that Cody built this at his house with the help of a few buddies and had a legitimate shot at winning. I can't imagine the winning Invicta was anything less than 20X or 30X the build cost of E-Job. Bravo. So proud to call Cody a friend.

    Congrats again Cody! I got to see it when under construction. Maybe we'll see it at one of Al Link's gatherings before the east coast car event season starts? :D

    Great looking car and execution is top notch. However, as I said on another thread the “cataract” look doesn’t do it for me...to each his own!
