    Thanks to my husband running into a former coworker at Swanx Fall Fiasco, we were hooked up with this amazing heap:

    1950 Buick 2 door!!! no motor but we're also picking up two 455's to make into one.

    We pick it up on Saturday! I may be more than a bit late for the Rumblers show... BUT ITS WORTH IT!!!

    I'll have more pics later... right now I'm doing the happy dance! [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] I can hardly contain myself! I've been drooling over a 1950 Buick for a while now.

    Looks like you might have a 1951 bumper/grill. Still super cool. (pun intended)

    I definitely plan on chopping it... that's what I've been wanting to do ever since I decided I wanted a '50 Buick. Gotta get it running first. Starting is going to be a bit off though, we still have to finish my husband's car. Just more incentive now.

    And AKATIREGUY, it has a different grill, probably off of a '51... so I'll probably be on the lookout for the 1950 grill eventually.

    Now THAT is a nice chop!

    We had quite an adventure getting her home today. She was on a trailer when we went to look, but it was kinda scary. After several attempts at trying to get a correct ball for the trailer hitch... we said "fuck it" and called a towing company. Lots of fun out in the rain, but we got her home!

    More pics to come...

    Happy Dance!!!! [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

  14. My friend Deborah used to own this stocker, she finally unloaded it after multiple attempts to seal up the exhaust on the straight 8... We used to have a great time shining the spotlight in peoples faces and sometime when your a little older I'll tell you about the incident with the deaf guy...
