Well I am officially "retired" from Buick customers !! (http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_cool.gif) This was my last car to get out. Goin to Australia so I don't have to warranty it. (http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_razz.gif) Now it's all my own junk and houses..well won't go there right now. Now all I have to do is get rid of all the extra parts I have been hoarding since 86 :rock:

Dan you'll probably never be done with Buicks if you have a phone and email. Nobody forgets who the players were! (Enjoy your free time Dan.) :D

hahahaha... Actually I have been retired for years. Been busier now than when I was working. I did this car for a friend who twisted my arm. :icon_evil: Had the car here for a long time !! Just didn't have time for it.. As ya get older life changes again on ya. Older parents who you thought would never get old well Ill be dammed they DID as well as me. Then you have to pitch in more an more to help life move along. Houses alone are a full time job to !!
Buick thing has run its coarse except for our own cars. I still have a blast driving Melissa's GN or the Mazda/Buick and of course my Olds /Buick wagon.
Then I am still sitting on a ton of Buick and TTA parts. Engines an trannys and a 28'X60' attic full of interior junk . One of these days I have to tackle that to. :rolleyes;
Started to clean out some of my car junk from the 60s. Then ya get one photo album an spend the rest if the day "reminiscing" :chin: :D

Well have been threw this many times over the years.. Corvette club was awesome back in the late 60s early 70s. Had prob 3 drag days a year !!! What a blast.. Gotta find some of those pics. Then the show an shiners took over and I left. Shelby/Cobra Club for YEARS.. Then I just got tired of the show an shiners AGAIN.. Had a "show" at a local Ford dealer. 3 guys that drove up in a crapped out Pinto were lookin at the same car I was. They were pointing out to everyone that it had the wrong bolts here an there :rolleyes; Me....GONE. Then came the Buicks in 86 till now.. Love the engines BUT it's time for me to move on maybe back to the Blue Oval stuff :player: Still have an original 66 GT 350 convert sitting in the garage. It needs some company :rock:
-
with the new ford stuff and the relax of NHRA to allow 2008 and newer vehicles to run to 9.99 (under 135) without a bar we may see a new growth in the racing hobby

hahahaha.. ALL the cars have covers on them.. Buick ended up being to long buy a foot.. So the Bentley ended up on top.
Actually playing with the Mazda again along with Melissa's car. Mine will be def out racing next year. The old motor is getting a "hair cut and a shave" right now :player:
