  1. It doesn’t help that the bolt that was soldered to the badge fell off.
  2. He put more effort into selling that $30 fender than some people put into selling $30k cars.
  3. I got an email from a guy in San Antonio with a picture of his mother sitting on the front end of what he thinks is a Buick around 1929. Wrong era for me to be of help with. I can send this pic over to a GOB thread after. Great smile and fantastic dress, BTW!
  4. I noticed the package tray also. Speaking as someone who had to guess and drill, that makes a difference. I think 55 radiator support is all (mounting hole wise) the same except you do have to drill for the refrigerator lines. Also the “splash pan” behind the grille where the dryer is mounted.
  5. It would make sense to have different colors at a dealership. Maybe.
  6. Alex is a good dude. I’m gonna get him to post in the Me and My Buick section. I’m sure he can get some gorgeous pics in SF of his beautiful car. Also, he may have gotten the coolest forum handle ever. I’m gonna look into a license plate with that on it.
  7. Yeah man. Send me a PM. I know everything about that car. I had that pinstriped. She passed while I was working on it. It was a tough reunion.
  8. I just noticed this. Wallace’s car was in my shop for a long time. The 322 and Dynaflow came from Bob Coker’s pile of stuff I brought home with me. Anything good done to that car wasn’t done by Leland Love. 😁
  9. I recall a thread years ago that the springs were different colors for different cars. Green was one of the colors.
  10. I have heard a bunch about the ZZ Top doc. It is on my watch list. SOON!
  11. Yeah, but what did it taste like?
  12. Was it Jimmie Vaughan’s 63? (Fabulous Thunderbirds guitar slinger)
  13. Brake pedal or E brake? (which is what I think Doug is talking about)
  14. That looks like a revulcanized one. The concern about the NJ version was that it didn’t seem to stick to the shiny zinc plating. I have installed them from everywhere (CARS, Bobs, Steele) and never had a call back FWIW. I have also never done any of the shimming process in the manual. Just gaskets and pookie.
  15. I like the Auburn too but it doesn’t come in a 7.60-15 (225/75) size
  16. They are in the armrest in 55 and 63 that I know of.
  17. @lancemb, when I see your car I’m gonna ask what the plate is really loud. I vote cut the middle out 😁
  18. I use them. A lot of times I will cut them out so you can’t see them as obviously. There are indeed harder to install that way.
  19. Took me til Lamar said something to get this. Holy cow. I’m not expecting such a dad joke homerun on the forum.
  20. And that torn hole is where a modern tow truck driver tightened a tie down too much.
