BUILD THREAD 81 Buick/Olds Turbo Wagon 02/15/2024 More Parts!

Some good developments on the horizon, Jim.
Keep us in tune..
Is the car still at your buddy's place?
 
Congrats on the new spot! Is it just land, or is there a house/buildings too?
I hope to make it out to Carlisle someday, looks like fun!
 
Scott, I have been checking into your thread, I see the progress you are making.

Jack, the car still is at my buddies 1 hour from me, hope to have it home by the end of May for assembly.

Blake, it's 15 acres in a state Forest. No buildings or homes, just undeveloped flat wooded land. I have engineers doing the site survey and all, got the perc test done, paperwork is getting submitted to the county now. I hope to have building permits by August.

After the home I'll be building a 40x60 shop. So if you guys ever make to Carlisle next year, stop on by, I will be 20 minutes from there.
 
Small update, the roof is sanded down to 5000, the hood if half done, and I resprayed all the door frames, and the 442 style stripes on the scoops in the same satin black. I'll have the hood sanding finished by next week, and then time to polish it out.
 
Heck yeah, that would be cool.
