Fine Wine Buick



Saturday was the MSRA Award banquet. We did not make the final choice, but we are very proud and happy anyway. Check the beautiful drawing of our car and the very nice plaque. We are very pleased and proud to be nominated. There were only 6 customs picked for this award, being one of the six is a great honor.

3w is Finished !






The 3w came home last night from the upholstery shop..all done. I like it, looks great. Al did another outstanding job. Check the pics and see for yourself.

more progress





The seat for the 3 window is done, looks good. The top insert is also done. Monday we took the RPU to Westside Welding for the exhaust. Clark did a great job, I finally got some Porters!
Today I blew the RPU apart, the body goes to Ben's on Sunday for body work and paint. I now have many little parts all bagged up and waiting for reassembly time. He has the box, grille shell and hood ready for paint, will be in color in a few days.
Most all of the holes are drilled, brackets made etc. Just need to get the frame primed and painted and the front suspension powder coated.
I will pull the engine and trans in a couple of days and start working on the frame.
