Hi, and welcome to the board! We're all pretty friendly 'round these parts and we'd appreciate at least a first name to know who we're 'chatting' with. There is a 'Parts wanted' forum that you could post you exact needs. Also, what kind of ideas are you looking for? Restoration? Performance? Cruise spots? Clubs? Lets us know - we're here to help :beer
Whats Up, Doc ??? Lets see a picture of your Ride.....and what you're lookin to achieve with the finished project !! describe what state its currently in, what needs attention.....etc. First bit of advice - get yourself a FACTORY 1969 Buick Chasis Service Manual.....or the Bible as my wife calls it (because one is in my nightstand drawer....I have a few copies - one to work with and get dirty, one to read, and an NOS one for the shows). Practically everything is described in detail in this book. Here's a picture and link to one on Ebay right now...... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2414019142&category=6761 They come up every so often in different states of condition - for one to work on the car with you should be able to get it for under $30....i.e. crumpled cover. Second bit of advice is to Join the BPG - The Buick Performance Group located at www.Buickperformancegroup.com Most of the people on this board are members and its a TRUE BUICK CLUB. Great bunch of guys..... I've had BigRed for 11 years now and have been in and under most of it at one time or another. Its gone from a stock motored rusted quarter panel 15.8 sec 1/4 mile driver to a Nasty running 12.39 1/4 mile Bruiser that usually takes home a trophy if i put it in a show. Im not the fastest....or most knowledgeable but like all the members of this board Im willing to help :tu: ...have a bunch of spare parts Here's a show picture.... ...and Here's it running last year http://itnmedia.com/alan/mygs2002.wmv
Welcome to the board! I'm pretty new both in the sense of this site AND to buicks! I just bought a '69 Skylark Custom that is a VERY serious project car (my second)! You and me might be getting along.... BTW: What engine is under the hood?
Sadly my car needs to be sold or crushed... I'm moving to an apartment in the city so I have NO WHERE for it to go. It would make the perfect parts car!
