Awesome! Did that have a transaxle under? Several people on here are wondering what it takes to put a real rear end in. What motor are you using?

 

Between the previous owner (Jaws) and me.. this was the outcome.

 

Thanks man! No trans axle in the Buicks.
Here is my build thread.

Original paint/patina, did'nt want paint at this time. So i wrapped it in 3M vehicle graphic material. Saved and preserved the original paint and patina. and looks brand new again. can remove at anytime and replace with a different color for the year or three. $450 in material and 30 hours labor for install

Wonderful thread. I'm enjoying the heck out of it. Jeez guys, kudos to all of ya.

 

Come on, that can't be the same cab. Nice job.

 

This is the oldest "before" of my '61 that I have electronically.. It's only a few years old, but represents the most original appearance of the car from when I first got it in 2002. (minus the Z28 rear wheel)



and today.

 

Here some of my project

 

That is quite a project... glad you rescued it.

 

...Unbelievable...

 

You are some kind of magician.

 

my 53 ford

 

A little more recent. Lowered, with the hood, roof finished a little more, and a couple windows. One year later, at the same spot.

 

Thanks so much man!! Your cars are great also.
