  1. Here's a thread about gas tanks; http://forums.aaca.org/showthread.php?t=381939
  2. In my view, a replacement tank does not significantly alter the originality of a '55 Roadmaster... Unless you are trying to restore it to a 400 point trailer queen that never drives on the street One of the beautiful things about our Roadmasters is the joy of driving the smooth running machines on the highway Were we talking about a '53 Skylark, that might be a different discussion. And if, you went with a replacement tank, it does not mean that you have to discard your original....
  3. It's a good question. I would weigh the cost of restoration vs a replacement. I elected to stay with the original tank. Mine only needed a good cleaning. So, that decision was easy for me. It's all about the 'Benjamins'.... How many to want to spend....
  4. Welcome to AACA forum, This forum also hosts the Buick Club of America (BCA) forum On the forum's home page, scroll down to the Buick section, for a Buick BCA specific forum
  5. It's difficult to find mechanics that are willing to work on old cars. For those that DO work on old cars; With the time it takes to find parts, they tend to push the old car to the back burner, In order to work on something that they can get out the door and make some cash flow. Do a search on this site for '55 Buick gas tank. The is a reproduction tank that is close to what our cars need. (I've still got my original tank)
  6. NOT MINE http://www.teambuick.com/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=7276&title=10-1963-specials-2fskylarks&cat=4 Selling my entire collection of cars, parts and tools. I'd like to be divested of the entire collection at once rather than endure the agony of parting with it piece by piece so respectfully, please only enquire if you're interested in the entire collection.

  10. For cars that have not been driven for awhile , You can expect the water pump to need replacing after a few miles of being put back in service. Also today's ethanol gasoline blend will degrade gaskets and seals in the fuel pump and carburetor Be prepared to replace these
  11. double the doors for $200,000 less What a bargain!!!

  13. When I was in high school, I picked up the nick-name "Bulldog". I've had people that have known for some time ask "Bulldog, what is your real name?" I live in Birmingham, Alabama. The local shorthand for Birmingham is Bham. So, bhambulldog is my username on three Buick forums, two Ford forums a Dodge forum and Photobucket
