    Sneak peak of the new project. 1940 Zephyr 3 window coupe. It might not be a Buick, but she was on the bucket list. I sold the 32 at 10am fri , picked up a trailer, then 16 hrs round trip she home.

    Very nice! And I thought my 56 Premiere was low. How did you manage on and off the trailer? I am considering air bags eventually. LOVE this car!!

    Looks like you could carry 4x8 sheets of plywood in that trunk, or 100 gallons of the finest moonshine.

    Nice addition to the garage.
