I figured they were different all the way around. I was hoping maybe he took the seats out of the two door actually but it doesn't look like it. I have seven yards of fabric waiting to be used so I can have the seats in the two door recovered with that. I need to see what kind of shape the interior is in concerning the two door.
I think they are good actually. Yeah, rebuilding those bad boys ****! There's a three speed standard that comes with it also so I might stick that in the two door.
I looked up a brochure from 55 that shows the specials having full wheel well openings. I love those with hubcaps and slammed to the ground in the *** end with whitewalls. Not original I know but what is these days? QUOTE=Dan Timberlake;9141548]I was thinking only limited production high end models of Buicks had full rear wheel openings, like the Wildcat and Centurion show cars. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--8DV0oWTv.../CbbGeD4ZVVA/s1600/1955+Buick+Wildcat+III.jpg http://images.hemmings.com/wp-content/uploads//2013/03/1956-Buick-Centurion-front-right-700x463.jpg[/QUOTE]
Seemed when you asked where the 55 was you were interested in it. Your "lol" comment speaks for itself I would say bro.
So you are ***uming that I tried to buy those cars out from under you because I asked a question? No, I'm not interested in a Buick. I made the comment because your thread ***le says "55 Buick", yet your post talks about '58 Buicks. So I was confused and asked about this discrepancy, that's all. Have a nice day.
First off, my sincere apologies! Actually didn't think it was you. I figured maybe it was good old har***ment. Someone did make a call who viewed the post. I realized I created confusion and corrected it. I didn't mean to offend and I miss interpreted your post. Someone from another part of the country tried to buy them this morning. Hope were square and I apologize again!
I know that dude, Scott, friend of mine... Those cars are great I've seen them in person, tried swindling the nailhead a bunch of times Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
I have a black 4 door post at home that looks almost exactly the same. It has a dealer installed air system in it.
I had dark green 55 a few years ago... loved driving it !!! FYI.... the seats from the 4dr won't work in the 2dr. Front seat doesn't fold forward and the rear seat a bunch different. So,,,,, just give the the 4dr for saving you a bunch of work Lemme know what you are going to do with the 4dr.... I might be interested in it.
I don't want to sway any decisions but the 4 door is the better car... Saw it about an hour ago... Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Yeah, maybe so. Not planning on getting rid of either of them I don't think. I know it would be a nice surprise for my girl to fix the 4dr up for her and then build the 2dr for myself. We had to let go of a 57 caddy project she had her heart set on last year.
Pm me if you all need a hand, I'm a mile or so from where they are... Grew up and work with the dude that owns the place they are stored... Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
I think it's going to work out ok! I had a 56 4dr for awhile and it was pretty cool. I like the looks of the 55 better so I think I'm going to enjoy it.
