Pretty dirty!

[Polishmeatballpizza]

Geez.

[EZ Cool]

When I wias just a little guy my mother couldn't understand how I could get so dirty while playing. Now my wife has the same probleme.

[Rollaround]

Fun indeed! Your wasting no time on your project. I wish mine was going as fast.

Dear George, EZ Cool, Kevin, Jim, Chuck, and mid-60s Buick fans of  . . . . more!

Now the fun begins!

Remember just keep repeating: . . . . "Are we having fun yet?" . . . . 

I forgot that's not a big block Nailhead!

Of course George could still . . . . . .supersize it!

and that doesn't have to be a nailhead . . . . . .



. . . Sorry, just messin' with ya' mind . . . .

Cheers, Edouard

Edouard,

I'd call "showoff", but that really is a good lookin' engine!  There's just something about a fresh Nailhead that gets this gearhead goin'!  I'm getting close.  Not quite done, but almost ready for more paint.

Dear George, Chuck, and mid-60s Buick rebuilders, . . .

Chuck, glad to see you are getting close to finishing up on your engine!

George, I hope a few diversions are simply a bit more motivation to keep plugging along on your car!

Cheers, Edouard

Yes, definitely. Still plugging away. Not sure if I should attempt to rebuild the transmission, or let someone else do it. What's the worst that could happen??

Dear George and mid-60s Buick scholar's of "Murphy's law" . . . . 

Yes, definitely. Still plugging away. Not sure if I should attempt to rebuild the transmission, or let someone else do it. What's the worst that could happen?? 

. . . Obviously you are not familiar with "da' unspeakable law:" . . .

• If you say something good - it goes away . . . .
• If you say something bad - it happens! 

. . . Just in case you need a little "encouragement" . . . . .

Cheers, Edouard

Since a fresh Nailhead gets gearheads going, I'm going to try to bring you a little inspiration. Not a rebuild, just a freshening up.

Nice!  Looks like a Carmen oil pump & pickup.
