Stay tuned... we have some cool stuff coming.

I like it.. The Olds is the only relevant project in the magazine right now. I can look at that car and say "Man, I would really WANT to build one of those"

Can't wait to see it run next summer.

All the 64-72 Buick and Olds are sadly overlooked. These cars have nice lines and share the same platform. I am really hope this shows people that there are options. Chevelle's don't grow on trees anymore.

Can't believe I just saw this one. Now I have to find a copy so I can start following the build. I have a '65 Buick Special 4-door that I would love to build up. Great lines on the Chevelle alternatives. I loved my Buick when I was driving it. It was my high school car.

Hell yeah.

Can we get more pics? Or does PHR own all the pics of your car? I KNOW you have some killer shots of the car stashed somewhere.
