    Congrats Ryan! The display boards look great and your Buick will light up the front lobby at MCACN.

    Awesome car Ryan, and it's great the way you're preserving the cars unique history. Truly one of a kind and deserving of all the attention it's getting.

    I am amazed at how beautiful she held up over the years. I am from Pittsburgh, close to the cars origin, I remember the estate sale where you got her. I hated to see her leave the area but im really glad she got such a good caretaker. this car deserves to be drivin and seen. Thanks for saving it.

    Yes, Moonshiners like hotrods and this Moonshiner liked my old Buick GS. I didnt know who he was till everyone around me started telling me he was some kind of TV star. Seemed like a nice guy and he just wanted to look at some old school Classic Cars. Didn't get to talk to Josh much as he had a swarm of people on him really quickly. I hope he enjoyed the show and had some fun.

    It's owned by a board member here, and it is in the process of being repainted blue.

    Kinda sad that it won't have that wild paint job anymore. Guess mine is one of the last ones from this wild era.

    Had my buddy Mike do some powder coating on a few things for me and a few extra parts.

    Agreed. I love the old customs. There used to be a 70 W-30 out here that was covered in custom paint and pinstripes

    Yeah, @Ryans-GSX, where were you hiding that car when I stopped the other day? Not that I had time. I was 20 minutes late home and pretty much ran out of gas in the bad part of town. It was a splash and go :)
