Buick Other 1956 Description
This vehicle was a 13 year labor of love that I didn't intend to ever sell, owever, inancial obligations have forced my hand. I bought the car out of Georgia and it was rust free except rocker in front of drivers rear wheel. I replaced with metal. Odometer reads 62,000 miles. I bought it from a classic car dealer in Atlanta, ut the mileage wasn't documented.Let's start with mechanical restoration...Engine runs perfectly and did not need anything. I did locate a 4bbl intake from a '55 and switched it. I saved the original 2bbl intake which goes with the car. It is a 322 nailhead. Just installed a 5 blade water pump rebuilt by The Flying Dutchman, ebuilt fuel pump also. All new hoses, il and filter. No leaks!!!Transmission was rebuilt by a local transmission company whose owner has done many Dyna Flow rebuilds.Front end was rebuilt, ushings, ie rod, tc.Brakes and hardware, ncluding lines, ere replaced.Installed Jamco lowering kit that dropped it 3-4 inches. Kit included springs and shocks designed to lower and keep decent ride.Wheels are new, s well as, hitewall tires.Re-chromed die cast tail light housings at cost of $1500.00. New tail light lens and head light rimsPainted 7 years ago and ALWAYS stored inside.
