Dear Loren and fans of "assertive" mid-60s Buicks,

Hmm, I do believe that would be one "assertive" vehicle!  :laughing7:

Wow, neat car! And it looks like a very nice build.
Also listed on eBay:

The seller has posted a few times over at V8Buick.

Speaking of blown Nailheads, I saw the blown Falcon at a local show last week. Some of you may have seen the car online and on YouTube.
The car is from in California, so I was surprised to see it here in Pa.

Hey John, 

If you put a blower in your restoration, we'll no longer have the Verde Howitzer twins.  Yours will be more like the Verde Cannon!  Just remember, while it would be the star of the show, the 400 point judges would not be impressed!   :laughing7:

 :cheers2:

Very neat.  I could do without the Rhino lining though.
