    Didn’t get as much done last night but did get my shelf brought down from my building and put it back in the garage to help keep everything organized

    My 1982 Buick Grand National Project basket case

    Moving right along as I took a break from it last night to do some work on the Indy. This evening I’ve removed the passenger fender (inner and outer) the heater box is now removed. This car definitely shows evidence of being parked under a tree at one point the drains for the heater box are...

    My 1982 Buick Grand National Project basket case

    I got tired of hitting my head on the stupid windshield so I removed that problem. The windshield was loose in the drivers bottom corner and I found a couple small pinholes that will have to get tacked up. I haven’t cleaned the full windshield channel out will do that tomorrow and see what other...

    Correct it’s a non turbo. Indy #001 and 002 had NA 4.1s that were beefed up, the production cars got the na 3.8. The 82 GN came with the 4.1 v6 but about 35 got the 3.8 turbo v6

    My 1982 Buick Grand National Project basket case

    I’ve wanted another GN since i lost my 86 in a house fire but I always liked the interior in the 82 and 84 GNs with the lier siegler seats. I don’t want to do a ls swap it’s already been done to a 82 car craft did a article on it. I think the 86-87 swap is the way to go

    The rust is going to be the worst to fix. I’ve never done rust repair but I’m going to give it a shot if I don’t like it I’ll let a body guy put the floors and patch panels on

    It is definitely going to be probably one of my biggest undertakings but it will be worth it when it’s done.

    My 1982 Buick Grand National Project basket case

    Quite literally she is a basket case. Original engine and trans long gone, interior is pretty much all there but needs to be redone. Unfortunately I think the grass seed that was in it probably helped contribute to the floor pan rust. The car is solid other than some rust in the floor and some...

    1981 Buick Regal Indy 500 pace car

    I got it very very cheap. It’s a solid car other than some rust around the rear window and a couple spots on the top. I have another Regal up in VA I need to go pick up just haven’t done it yet

    1981 Buick Regal Indy 500 pace car

    Here is my Cutlass it doesn’t need much to be a decent car again it does have some rust in the roof I’m going to have to fix because of a stupid vinyl top. The new cooper cobras I bought for the Indy will probably wind up on a set of stock Cutlass wheels and go on the Olds.
