No it doesnt shock you but thats not a bad idea I could probably rig something up😂

Shade does not come with lamp

Homemade 50s Buick nailhead lamps They'd make a great addition to a man cave or garge both lamps were made from used parts The black one is 100 and the blue is 150 or 220 for both

Changed the coil and condenser out with ones from a 54 Buick She seems to be running pretty well

Yeah thats the nicest air cleaner I have. I might paint it and put a Holley sticker on it. I do have a vaccum gauge

Well it was a busy weekend we got the Buick buttoned up and i only had to install the thermostat three times before it stopped leaking. It didnt take much and she fired up pretty easily and ran well. but for some reason after i turned her off to find a air cleaner so i could take her for a test drive when i fired her up again she ran like absolute crap. Im not sure what changed between the first and second start up.But heres some cool pics.

lol ? ill have to install some first to have something to reinforce.

And heres a comparison of the old vs the new.

Heres what the coolant passages looked like when I took the intake off. Now I know why I never had any heat and why she liked to run hot at idle even with that big aluminum radiator. This is after I started to clean them out.

Im not sure its fairly small. I have a nice black edelbrock air cleaner ill use if it clears the hood.

so i finally got off my butt and decided to start working on the special again. shes sat for a month or two because of some personal problems that made me lose interest in the hobby and a rochester 2 jet that seems to hate me. ive decided to make some changes.
