Projects 57 Buick Special 2 door post

I have had this ol Buick for 3 or 4 years now and its been a real slow go but I have made a little progress here and there. I have put in a new floor and trunk, redone the seats and door panels. I sanded her down and put primer and blue scallops on it. It's got the original 364 nailhead, as best as I can tell, which will run when I hot wire it, since the ignition needs work. My short-term goal is roadworthy then go from there. Here is a pic or two

I like the way it looked before the primer, but that's just me. Keep up the progress photos, good luck.

 

I wish I would have kept the patina look now, but I had to do something with the rust I felt.

 

x2 on that! '57 is my favorite year of the Buick.

Any pics of the new floor (without carpet) and trunk?

 

I got some but I ain't too happy with my work, so I wont embarrass myself any further by putting them out there. I just got it in the best I could, made it work and carpeted over it Anyway, it's done, the seats are back in and I am working on bigger and better things now like motor stuff

 

Keep at it, man.

 

I love those cars. Don't be ashamed of what you can't do. Be proud of what you can.

 

Are you going to rebuild the Nailhead? I took many pics when I built my 401 that I can share.

We checked compression and it's ok so I think at this point I will try and get it on the road first, then if and when I can afford it do a rebuild. I totally love the nailhead's and so look forward to working with it I appreciate the offer of the pics and I sure may take you up on it !
