That is a beauty. I am so glad to see a straight eight and not a 350 Chevy engine!

looks awesome. ive grown to love straight 8s i really get a charge every time i see one. and it doesnt have to be a buick either. its just really neat. the first time i saw the one in mine i thought the same thing every one of my friends thinks when i "pop the hood". "what the &%^# is that!?"

looks real nice with all the chrome too! im a sucker for the fastback sedanettes too. man i WANT one! you and your "nice" weather! you can go out and drive your car and put the windows down....we dont know what nice weather is over here. its the middle of april and we're getting snow and sleet.

Mr D, how ever are we gonna get to Rhinebeck if it decides to do this again!!!??

Nice ride, Rafael. And as another has already stated - great to see the straight eight still living where it is supposed to be.

Enjoy the ride, Gene
