All safety items that can be changed and not point deducted need to be specifically identified and documented before any national show. That way there will be no arguments after judging. If safety items like brakes, seat belts, headlight bulbs (some in lieu of burners), turn signals and stop lights (for cars that did not have them), radial tires in lieu of bias, modifications to the fuel system (many older show cars install newer carburetors, electric fuel pumps), battery cut off switches, etc are allowed state it wit details.
If tastefully done has been mentioned and that may be a problem since judges may not all be in agreement. I think some experienced judges should look at several modifications and decide some language that will aid in what is tastefully done. Like are the modifications using older looking supplies rather than something picked up at NAPA yesterday (eg turn signals).
Remember, this is competition and if a modified car be judged equally to a car restored to its factory specifications, so be it.

Looking to the future. Buy it for the grand kids and store it for 25 years. With no gas by then, they can have an antique car that can be driven to the shows unlike the gas run cars by then. Put it in your barn and they can advertise it as a "Barn Find"

What is the big blank off of a hole in the firewall for? Maybe the heater fan motor is missing?

Is it normal for Buicks to have one fender spare and one rear spare tire?

The parts book only shows a picture of the standard steering wheel which is much different.

Here are the part numbers if that helps:

What 36 model is this; UF, KC, KCL, LC, WC, Etc? I have a master parts book, but, it goes by serial number or model, not year.

An old Gates belt book lists their belt number as 660 which is 49-5/8" . The new DAYCO book for replacements for older cars list their part number as 24490 which is 49-23/32"
As far as a thermostat; your choice.

Does anyone know what is the correct metering rod gauge for a Carter W-1 (391-S)? Thank you.
If used on a 38 Chevy the metering rod Gauge is T109-25

I think this is what it says:
Good day, I would like to buy a 1931-1933 Buick, ideally a 66 coupe with a direct 8 engine, can be found in the barn. My price range is $ 10,000 - $ 15,000. I am from the Czech Republic, 53 years old. I collect Czech antique cars, but I would like to buy my first American-made old timer. I am willing to come to the United States to conclude the agreement in person, if required. I will be grateful for all the offers, tips and suggestions.
