  4. The seats from A 1947 and 1948 two door sedanette will work. I a seat frame from a convertible, but have taken parts off of it and it is pretty much shot. The frames from Oldsmobile 2 doors are shorter, I think. I have one but has manual adjusters and does not have the courtesy lights on it. It could be widened or shortened to work. It has the cushions with it, but once again, they may have to also be modified. Matt
  5. Anyone know where the specific parking is for people trailering cars in for the car corral? Can we just pay and park in the general parking or is there a specific lot/place? Matt
  6. Long story short. Car is a barn find. Hoses were off engine. Had to pull the head and clean cotton batting out of head and block. Little seed shells, batting and crap bad plugged the top of the radiator just enough to restrict flow. blew everything out and no more overheating
  7. Thanks for the help. Figured out my problem and she is running fine now. Matt
  8. I finally have my 26’ running, but it appears the cylinder head must be cracked. Once engine warms up, water steams with pressure. Just had the head off and didn't see anything visual. Gasket looked ok. anyone have a good head laying around? I have been told they were prone to crack somehow or another Want to have car in car corral, but need to get this resolved thanks Matt
  9. Trying to finish up my 26 2 door and need the choke mechanism from the knob to the carb. anyone have anything available? thanks Matt
  10. https://medford.craigslist.org/pts/d/grants-pass-1956-buick-wagon/7317349502.html If this were closer, it would be next in line for my garage. Maybe someone closer or with more ambition will grab it Matt
  11. Yes, is sold. Thanks to all for the interest. Matt
  12. Went out this afternoon for 1.5 hr run out to an antique store I have been wanting to visit. Buick ran great and was nice to stretch her legs a bit after a long winters nap.
  13. I ordered some of the items and found the quality to be very nice. The hooded sweatshirt is name brand and printing is nice on everything. Some of my friends received masks on me as I ordered a 5 pack. Thanks for looking guys/gals Matt
  14. Hey guys! For Christmas, my daughter drew me a design for a teeshirt I wanted to make. Her drawing turned out so well that I told her she should try to sell the design on products. With things being hard enough for her in college, this may be a way for her to make a little cash. I ordered masks, a tumbler for my coffee, a hat and a sweatshirt. The masks and the tumbler came in today. I am sending some masks out to a few friends because I only need one for myself and they are washable. Any help will be great. Please, if you order, make sure you order directly from the url link so she gets full profits. https://www.teechip.com/buickfulldesigns Thanks Matt
  15. My daughter literally used a couple brand new permanent markers on my freshly chromed grill. Has held up 5 years so far. Who’d have thunkded?!
  16. John Been really busy. We ended up with between 24-30 inches. Depending on how/where it was measured. I got up at 4 and went to work. When got home worked 5 hrs cleaning cars and driveway Binghamton got twice as much as we did and they are 35 min North Matt
  17. As you can see, these are the different gear sets. The original is stamped 41 10. Take 41 and divide it by 10. 4.10 gears likewise, the one I put in, is a 43 12. Take 43 and divide it by 12. 3.58 gears. Matt
  18. I removed the rear end and did the gear change in around 5 hours. I have a 47 Roadmaster convertible. Used the gears from a 54 Special I believe. Matt
  19. Happy Birthday Lamar! Glad you had a Buickful day! I make several runs a week with the 47’. Usually make the same route which takes an 1:15 a 1:30. Made another run Saturday with my brother in his 1940 LaSalle out to the BBQ joint. Hard to believe we work together and probably spend less time together as brothers than I see my sister who lives in Missouri. Has gotten much better since he bought his LaSalle this year.
