  1. i was writing as you were the picture says it all thanks
  2. just went on their website to check them out on the contact page it states "you will never be asked to make a bank transfer as payment" so with them stating it, Big Red Flag sorry but haven't dealt with any wire harness company's but i do have a question my 57 is original low mileage the negative cable is cloth covered the positive (battery to junction) was changed before i got it, to your knowledge is that wire also covered in cloth or is it just the rubber insulation. would be interested to know and when you find a source please let us know thanks Marty
  3. i'm on board with the Autosol also had some nice results with it
  4. Sounds good to me here goes my wax of choice Collinite Insulator Wax hands down probably the best wax i have ever used with great staying power no abrasive just a wax ask around at car shows you might be surprised how many people use it Marty
  5. OK i am going to chime in again so hold on 54 Really i am sorry but how can you compare that to the style and elegance and power of the 1960 models especially the 225 all in good fun Marty

    Road Trip

    Great story a fun read also love the Maroon and tan great color combination and again i will agree a good looking group
  7. From Instagram yesterday all of the new Encore GX First is Buick USA Second is Buick Mexico Third and fourth is Buick Canada All that snow up north sure gives you Canadians a great perspective on things. And I just wanted to make sure you know how to use the tailgate. lol
  8. Do i think this is the place for political club issues basically in public? NO Do i think it should be in a private type forum? YES Do i think it will work? PROBABLY NOT i believe that sometimes the people that are posting some of this (NOT ALL) want a public forum if they wanted to try to solve problems they could call the higher ups or maybe they don't want a one on one get involved with a chapter and see how that works (THEY MIGHT BE) work with the system talk to your chapter board I like having my "handle" on my comments but if you log in you can see my info I don't hide just want the people who are really part of this to see my info NOT TROLLS Many good comments above, now you have mine sorry about a bit of the New York attitude Lamar hope this helps Marty
  9. on my phone (android) after i hit the sign in i have to swipe sideways to see the actual sign in menu
  10. check out this place www.morelandhose.com they have 2 locations on Long Island i don't know if they do mail order but if we have them on LI i am sure there must be other companies that might be closer to you seen as you are modifying go with the braided hose trick it out a little more good luck
  11. i love my 91 vert got a good deal on it had to do work but that's ok and knew that going in, i try to drive it as much as possible so agree DRIVE THEM TO ENJOY THEM but saying that real low mileage original perfect ones should be preserved. as far as will a Reatta ever be a collector car, back in the mid 70's to early 80's 1 walked away from 3 different GSX's between $3000 to $6500 dollars because they all had something wrong with them all running good looking cars, but before the market went wild. i think one just went through Barrett Jackson for $183,000. Give them time Reatta's will find their mark in the mean time we can have all the fun with them we want with plenty out there and in junk yards for spare parts.
  12. 33 bucks and it looks real trick too, nice find good luck with it
  13. did you change the radiator cap to a cap for the coolant recovery system the original cap will NOT perform correctly with a tank Nice job by the way very neat looking and just because i cant see it the tank does have a overflow pour out hose from somewhere on the top ( i see something on the right but it is lost in all the black lol)
  14. this is worrisome to me you cant just replace the springs with something shorter, the springs have to have the correct tension or it could produce the problem you have. i would try to source the holddown springs from a reputable Buick source and make sure the pins on those springs are the correct length, if they were to long it could produce the same problem. Good Luck
  15. wish they were closer a little to far for a road trip lol
  16. thanks Y-JobFan understood just as a note the select 60 hit $25k and didn't sell do they bring it through again or maybe a private sale
  17. please correct me if i am wrong but don't the insurance company's and value guides use the results of the auctions to generate the values they use. i don't think that they are taking into consideration how good the repaint was or what might have been done if so, more low dollar cars going through auction is hurting the market value and in turn how much we might invest in these cars opinions please
  18. it sold today for $3,850 argggh doesn't help the values
  19. The go on any green(green arrow) is a leftover result of Drag Race Fever Happens to the best of us LOL
  20. Wishing everyone Health, Happiness and Buick emblems and what they are attached to for 2020 and seconding my 60 is 60
  21. Merry Christmas to all and families a Happy and Healthy New Year and Holiday Season. May we all have a wonderful and safe New Year filled with our Buick's and friends
  22. Had to do some work on my Rainier last night so the Reatta had to spend that time outside and of course for that short time it snowed but it's back in side dry and warm
  23. many owners are putting Dual reservoir masters on their car for the safety if something goes wrong with disc brakes you will have to use a proportioning valve i would contact Wilwood to see what they recommend as far as fluid volume and with discs power should definitely be considered my opinion hope it helps
  24. WOW WOW WOW so cool, very nice, love the colors 57's just work so well as customs mild or radical the lines the windows very nice work
  25. i looked at one a bunch of years ago non turbo Sport Coupe Lesabre had the 403 Olds i think an 80 nice car well complemented with options just not what i wanted at the time
