Not likely.

Not likely.
Is the piece you broke at the carb or the pedal?

I don't go to the AACA site, so don't move it. Start a new one up there.

It should be pretty much centered with the full weight on the axle. If lifted or excessive weight in the trunk it will shift to one side or the other. Also check the distances with the frame as a reference; a quarter panel may have been replaced or body damage repaired incorrectly.
You HAVE to check it on the ground or you WILL freak out. I doubt it is anything but the panhard shift. (Guessing)

Drive it down here. I'll store it for ya, drive it occasionally, and buy you a beer and dinner AND a ride to the airport. It's 13 hours from STL to AUS unless you drive even faster than I do.

I personally have the inexpensive car covers on my cars for indoor storage, but the California Covers that I have used on customer cars (that they purchased) were extremely high quality. Send a PM to Barney Eaton. He is a distributor (not sure which brand) and would have more knowledge than anybody about quality and other questions.

Could just be leaking out of a hose, or fitting. The Pitman arm seal only holds back gear oil.

OK. If I understand everyone's response, this is what I think everyone is saying:
According to Old-Tank, factory mirrors were installed on the doors and look like the ones in his picture. And that's how they would look on the showroom floor Buicks in 1955. But according to JohnD1956, the dealer could remove the factory installed mirrors and instead mount a different kind of mirror (like mine) on the fender. Or am I missing something?
They wouldn't have to remove factory mirrors. The mirrors were only optional on some models, so instead of paying $12 for factory mirrors, they might pay $5 from the dealer or Western Auto, etc.
**Above dollar amounts are merely made up by me for illustrative purposes.

I have repro Chevy 56 T3s on my judged Special. I did it before finding out that 55s didn't use the T3.
I paid pretty big $ for them. Since I don't have the car judged anymore, I am thinking about selling them to some other knucklehead...

I have a two pack of Hollanders that have only been opened twice in 20 years if you're want them. (Not free)
This is NOT a compliment for the manuals.

Install some longer 5/16 bolts in the cap. I rig a puller pushing against flat stock on the counter weights, but a slide hammer will work also.
I used a slide hammer last time

Biodegraded,
$1,200 is too much. Yes you need windlace for looks, but realistically I have cut bad lace out of cars with no ill effect. You do have to install windlace under the headliner, so if you can't do it now, it won't get done reasonably.

I hear ya, man. I am just starting to get slightly concerned that you are biting off too much all at once.
Just remember to work on restoring parts every once in a while so you don't have too many pieces of old dirty parts laying around.

Just installing a four way seat is hard, Kosage. We can help (of course), but unless you are really short you will be all the way down and all the way back. This upgrade isn't worth it in my opinion.

One thing is that you have to have the number. You can't just say late 55-56. The only reason I can't give them an A Plus.
