MrEarl Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 We all like pictures! Sooooo This thread is for posting pictures of YOUR Modified Buicks. Just pictures and a brief description. It will help us all know who has what and sort of put a car to a person so to speak. So let's see them! and who knows, maybe your car will end up featured in a calendar some day.

I cut the coils for about 3.5-3.75" in front and a little over 3" in back so its got a slight rake. Here's interior and engine since I finished those up 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mass9192 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Wow! Super clean ?? Were did you get your grill from or was it custom made? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black River Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 The grill is just a factory '65 Riv piece. It's got projector beam bulbs in the side marker area. They work ok for driving around town, but I'll be hiding some LED driving lights or a full light bar behind the grill for driving down the highway at night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mass9192 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Sweet! Did you have to do any modification on that grill? I didn't know that it would fit a 63? Lights look ligit though ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black River Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Everybody says you have to cut it, but it went right in for me. Had to do a little mounting modification, but basically a bolt in deal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the full flow on my 263 nd mounted the filter back on the cowl. Thanks Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenz38 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 The Filter is mounted to the Frame..,because its easier and a cleaner Job to change it.. And there also on, is a sandwich adapter for an Oilcooler in front of my Radiator... The Temperature went to hot on Autobahn while towing my Caravan for Hours, at 55 mph ,in Summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
