    Hey Knas-n, enough with the big ugly modern wheels already. This is the HAMB, they DO NOT belong here...

    So, it aint so pretty yet but you can imagine it finished however you like. If you have good ideas let me know.

    It's a 56 Special channeled about 4" over a 77 Cadillac chassis and floor pans. I'm the proud 2nd owner of the Buick. It was covered with a tarp and the floor pans and frame were rotten. The body is great, We found a caddy chopped it up and used what we wanted.

    I've put A Buick 430 and turbo 400 in it. Trying to keep it mostly Buick.

    I've got a long way to go but I'll get there.

    Just sold my 54 Special mild custom a couple of months ago. I loved this car and we went on a hell of a ride together for 6 years. But, I had to let it go to focus time and money on my 50 Chevy build.

    Billet steering wheel, modern gauges, modern switches, you're kind of losing me with the interior....

    and the pedal car air cleaner is kind of silly.

    I usually find the 41 ugly, but the black grill makes it look great on the first pic.e
    Much more than the stock one .
    Nice find :)
