I see the '57 and '58 are listed for sale ... should I assume you're keeping the '54?
Of course. Winter in the boonies outside the PROT means frost on the tumbleweeds and the windshield ... but not yet. Still in the 80s during the...
So did you ever decide what to keep, what to part, and what to sell? Inquiring minds want to know!!!
There's no sweeter song than that sung by a 4-speed Hydra-Matic going up through the gears. I'm glad you're keeping it. Have you thought about...

Naaahh ... you did well. Get the '54 sedan up and running for a summer driver. Pick the '57 (ordinary looking IMHO) or my favorite, the chrome...
Jim, you guys have cojones the size of basketballs. This is going to top the Edsel adventure!
I've had Dynaflow Buicks since I was 17, and that was a loooooooonnnnngggg time ago. Still have one, along with many other makes. These are...
So did the '62 110 with Powerglide coupe I had Back East ... and the oil smoke that wafted out of both was a free bonus! ;-) But damn, that car...
