After posting various photos in the "Favorite Pictures of My Pre War Buick" thread, I decided it was time to start my own thread. I got this car in March of 2017, and I know very little about its history. It appears to be an older restoration of a solid original car. I will start out with some photos (some of which have already been posted in the other thread).
I have a question. After some struggling, we finally got the water jacket drain plug out of the block. However, the passage is completely blocked by crud and no water drains out. I have tried to get a wire or coat hanger, etc. in through the hole to clear it out, but the passage makes such an abrupt right angle turn that I haven't had any success so far in clearing it. I wasn't surprised to find it blocked because I've read on the forum of others who have encountered the same problem.
