    Not a chance. I found a buyer for my lakes mod. project so me a couple of friend put a 350/350 combo in, but its a sbb not sbc. 73 350 Buick that runds great. Put new tires on and a set of 52 Buick caps on for now, I am gonna try a set of Study caps next. I am going back to work on between xmas and new years to finish the mechanical and try and flake the roof. The body will get mild mods and satin light green finish.
    Let me know what you think and what you could have bought ;)
    I will post better pics later when we get it back in the shop. The install was one of the easiest I have ever done...

    Looks great. What did you do for a rearend/rear suspension? Any steering box difficulties? Cars are easy to sell once they're driveable.

    I'm glad to see that you were able to keep it Danny. That's such a cool car. If you want to have anything Photoshoped on it, just let me know.

    Beautiful. I must confess I don't even bother looking in the classifieds because it just kills me all the good deals I can't afford. That's a really sharp car. My grandparents had a '52 Buick, metallic blue, but I'm sure it was a four-door. I don't care, I'd drive it.

    Lacy your a dork.
    The shop is my partmers in the dragster. They have a reapair shop in Tillamook the land of cheese. I wish I had a shop that big.
    The rear end is a Mecury staionwagon 9" so it still has the 5 on 5 bolt pattern and are still running the stock Buick wheels.
    Doug you can be my friend for a dollar.....Danny
