Very nice Ted!

With all the wonderful cars you have, how do you ever pick which one to drive?

I imagine when it's time to tag all of them your checking account goes down faster than the gas gauge on a GS with dual quads!   ;D

How many 65 GS's do you know of in the Cincy area?  Up here in Lima, I'm about the only Buick guy I know of.

Looks great Ted!
I like the look with the front end high...looks like a 60's drag car. How does she sit with the engine installed?
Drivable yet??? ;D

I got a call from Dennis @ DME (transmission guy) he has rebuilt a T-10 for the car and is shipping it monday 4/20.  Everything is there, ready to assemble.  Maybe by BPG?  Ted

Hey Ted,

I'm planning on BPG also and I think that Tom is a contender every year also.

It'd be nice to get some 65's together on the field.

I went there a couple of years ago and didn't see that many 65's.  With this being the reunion year for the GSX, it'd be nice to break up the pack a little with some older iron.   ;D

Ted, thanks for the inspiration! I went to the shop and got the gas tank in this weekend. I also got started on some other bits and pieces. Any others that have some inspirational pics?

No picture, but I got my throw out bearing ready and the trannie is in the shop-\
put them together and then I have to get the inner fenders out of the way for heater core/blower install, zbar install.

Ted,
I'll agree with the others , it does look sweet!

You go Ted! We're all waiting to see some more pics.

I'm looking forward to getting concrete in my soon to be shop. Then I'll be ready to get to work also.
Thanks for the inspirational pics,
