DAVES_BUICKS Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Found this '57 Buick in Michigan's Upper Peninsula a while back. It has the rare 4-wheel drive snowplow option. Lots of snow up there! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RivNut Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Oh, come on now! You need to see this car in action before you make comments on what it looks like. 165 mph with a straight 8 on the salt flats??? Hats off to Jeff Brock the creator. It's not built to look pretty, it's built to go fast, world record fast. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elpad Posted April 26, 2017 Author Share Posted April 26, 2017 Didn't I also mention "weird"? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! never questioned the speed. To some this is a work of art just like someone's junk is somebody's treasure. I sometimes likes junk... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, I would drive it as is. I would just fix the wheel base and then have fun. Some years ago my dad and I went fishing on the east side of Washington, and there's a dune course over there. Two guys lifted 1970s Corvettes like this and were just tearing it up in a 4WD hot rod. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole thing is from another continent. I wonder what they have been calling it for the last 15 years in whatever county GM found it in.
