The Jalopy Journal
The 55 is too nice to destroy. Was thinking about it. The Dynaflow is a descendant of Nazi killers. GM developed it for the Hellcat tank...
Yeah I would put that on as well. The 264 seems to be running good on the 2 barrel after I leaned her out a little. I had better leave things...
And Germ warfare has returned. All hail the King!!
Car is definitely not sorted, too much time at Rosatis drinking beer. Bash is a go though. And I need to get more car work done and less beer drank
I would have preferred a 55 Chevy but $5k 55's disappeared in the 90's. But just to have a legit gasser is all I need. Just beyond happy with...
Messaged you my contact info. So much for the Chevy lugs but it may be a Chevy bolt pattern per seller.
That's how it looks on my phone w chrome. So yeah. We will have a "tent" setup. Drop by, hope to have both there. Will have a 5 little pony...

And I forgot, the Olds rear has a speedway disc brake conversion so even w/o front brakes she stops good.
I am pretty excited and it was cheap. But my 200R4 or 4R will cost $2700 to get built right and I know just the parts 5-6 years ago were $1600....
I had not given it that much thought. Now I will. Got the Buick home today. Got her up to 80 and was cruising good. Not quick off the line but...
Lol, not sure how I caught this one...
Oh, ok, I'll take that. But just me. Pics are in the new thread of me lol.
Germ incognito?
OK so to finish off the Buick thread, wifey was not excited about taking a perfectly nice Buick and tearing it up. Wife was also not impressed...
Starting a new thread on the Boogie Bird.
Well there are reasons, lost my job so while I had financing secured I needed to move before the bank wanted new "pay stubs". But I have my...
That was a nice ride. And no, I am going to leave the Buick alone. The boogie bird though will be getting a make over. I am getting my 383...

I can't find my glasses, so can barely see. Got up at 4am and headed to San Diego and bought the Boogie Bird, a 63 Falcon legit SoCal gasser....
Nice looking ride!!
Yes on the coil. Well that's good now I know that will work. Did you get the I or II? Back when I had one on a old beetle almost 30 yrs ago...
Thanks for the heads up!!! Holy crap. That would have turned out fun. Break a car that's not broken. Then chasing a problem that you created....
windups is more that I want to finance so its the deathtrap. Had to wait for underwriting to get done before I mess with another loan, Am...
Wifey likes the white walls, William will paint the wheels a shade of red that matches the interior. The WW's have good tread on them as well.
Someone on the aaca or whatever forum said the 2 barrel is great unless you want to go over 80mph. I am going to get the pertronix II as I hate...
So I do listen, wife and I were talking. She does not want to mess with a perfectly nice Buick, so I get to get a "hot rod". Have already been...
Thanks for the replies when I stop running around I will go over the replies better. And yes there were a couple 8.2's, Chevy and BOP. So...
I went to the Motorcycle Mechanics Institute so I can do engines, I want roller lifters and rockers. Petronics makes a HEI that will drop in....
Bro, this is not my Aunt Martha's Buick. And wifey is good and I will not do the work. Guy that is helping sell the car is a "curator" for the...
