    The shipper dropped off my 38 Buick last night so I finally have my grubby hands on it. I got ideas and questions and more ideas and more questions coming soon. First thing to happen is the straight 8 and the torque tube drivetrain is going away.

    Good looking nailhead; but unwanted things have a habit of getting in open spark plug holes.
     
  6. Nice car. Ask any questions as you go, and share pics. I have already mapped out my 401 install and can share ideas.

    Yep, first thing we did on a friend's Buick was to make new rear spring mounts and put a regular rear axle under it. Then being it was in olden times it went to another friend's house for a narrowed Nova clip.
