Dear Ronnie, John, Chuck, Loren, Jim, and 65GS.com welcome wagon! . . .
, Hey everyone my Name is Ronnie and I'm 32 years old. I have been told about this forum from being on v8buick over thier my Name is Nailhead Ronnie. Members like trunk monkey and elagache told me but it was Edouard who gave me that push.
By all means welcome to 65GS.com!!
Among other things, it is a lot easier for me to use my vast collection of emotions on 65GS.com!
I own a 65 Skylark, bought it about 2 years ago. Since then my plans for it went from bbb 455, to cad 472 to now a BBB 430 and a th400. Still undecided on the rear. But it has been fun learing about Buicks and all things mechanical.
So you are now with a Buick 430? My wagon has a stroker version of that engine. It definitely looks good in a 1965 engine bay with Nailhead green valve covers.
My plan is to do all the grunt work myself. Thanks for reading.
If you are doing the work yourself you'll definitely have to supply all the perspiration, but we'll glad provide you with plenty of inspiration!
(and good advice too!
)
Once more welcome!
Cheers, Edouard
