Missus and I were at the classic car auctions today.
Picked up this all original 1948 Buick Straight 8

As much as I love fighters I love my old cars.
And the missus is beaming

Nice purchase.

Is it gonna get the flames job, ala Grease?
Are you and the missus gonna do a song and dance number around and over the car while in dreamland then come back to reality when the song ends?

That thing looks very stock, clean and straight, the dead guy who owned will probably roll in his grave when you start on it. My old man restores old cars and I'll go into his shed and suggest chopping this and widening that and a nice set wheels would look good on that, wow a 350 in that one would be great and he'll hunt me straight out, original is the go in his eyes, he dont know what he's missing, rows his boat though.
