 Up for bid is my beautiful Buick. I restored this car in 2010. The mechanical work was done by the previous owner. Rebuilt 322 cu in nail head. mild cam. tri power. heads reworked for unleaded gas. turbo 350 trans and a 9in ford rear end with 355 gears. It had about 3000 miles on it when I bought it. I did the body. paint. interior. At that time I managed Doug's Custom Paint and Body 22 years. The car was dissembled. all chrome and stainless were sent out. the body stripped to bare metal. it had never been in an accident. I did replace the rockers due to bad weather striping. It had some miner dents and we started the prep. Primed and blocked until the body was laser straight. I painted it two tone with matt urethane paint from a company called Hot Rod Flats. in a $80. 00 downdraft spray booth. the finish is awesome. The dash was removed and painted the same colors in gloss with clear coat. buffed and striped. The wiring was replaced as necessary. speedo was rebuilt. all gauges were cleaned. light bulbs replaced. installed a custom auto sound radio. power antenna. and power front windows. Next I replaced the windshield and all weather-stripping from Steel rubber. I then went to the best interior shop in town. Chatsworth Upholstery. It was insulated with a Dina matt material. nbsp;the upholstery was done in boat vinyl. the carpets and custom matts were cut pile. The car came with manual steering so I sent it to the hot rod shop for a late model GM steering conversion. new gear box. pump and lines. The shop removed the exhaust manifolds and sent then to a company called Xtreme Performance Heat Coatings. its a ceramic coating inside and out. better performance and cooler. The rest of the exhaust was replaced. Last the brakes are drums. the rear are ford bronco and the front are Buick just rebuilt with new cylinders. shoes and seals. it has a late model booster and stops great. I could go on and on but I think the pictures will speak for the rest. I only drive it to shows and cruse nights.  Last summer I made a 250 mi trip up the California coast for a show and it cruses fine at 70. In 4 years I have only driven a over 2000 mi. If you have any questions please let me know. Thanks David and good luck you wont be disappointed.

 A couple things I forgot to mention. I converted It to a chrome one wire alternator and electronic ignition.  I sent the gas tank out to be cleaned and installed a new sending unit.
