68 Buick is finished! aka the BADDEST car ever posted on dfwMUstangs

Yes sir! Im going to do some 70's lowrider style paneling on the roof.

I like your style!
Throw some lace and silver leaf into the patterns and it would be spot on!!!


Some bell flower tips would probably fit well with it too..

Thank you all for the kind words but the guy who deserves all the credit is Derek Mullins (screenname Slovanova). He worked really hard finishing the car up for me, and pretty much built the entire car. He also picked out the color, and had a hand in the whole design all the way.

Tell Derek another Mullins said "Nice, Very Nice!"
Great work man.

My only critique.. grill treatment. Not sure I'm digging the hiden headlights on this one as much as others I've seen. Maybe a tighter barred grill (smaller bars but more of them) would work better, for me!?

Still, one sweet freaking ride man.
Big congrats. Love the color too.

I'm assuming SBC?

yep! When I first put all this together 5 years ago I built a 350 and and 700r and bought all the stuff for it. When I started back on it all, I was too poor to scrap all this stuff and switch to a ls motor. I thought about doing a ls3 motor this winter with the down time, but I really like how the motor in it now sounds, and it works fines. Besides, I have to save up to have the roof paneling done

I truly wish it did, but there wasn't any room for it. With as much as the car was channeled the small block barely fits as it is.

Please tell me it has a 455 Buick under the hood!

I've been following your thread and really like the car. But, why can I not get past the doors? Every time I look at the car, the doors throw me.

I told you, it's a ratrod


Thanks again for all the kind words

Very nice.

[Chopped54]

Yes sir, they're Dayton triple cross Wheels.

Well done on both counts!!!! So many folks going with Chinese shit these days.
Show my age, but I bought my first Daytons in 92. Then Roadster brought out the Roadstars in '93 so I bought a pair of those, but always went back to Dayton...
Had a Dayton shirt back in the days that said "If you aint got Dayton's, you aint got SHIT!"
