Thanks for the info!

I am looking to do the tucked bumper thing on my wagon, yes. Not any time real soon, but the chrome is flaking off the rear bumper and I think tucking them and painting would solve the problem well.

The century bumpers are a bit larger than malibu's I think so I might have to do some more mods (cut the corners down too to match the woodgrain trim), but should be doable.

Ill have to keep that project in the back of my mind 🙂
I think the Buick wagon would look cool with the right mods. As you said, the front bumper will entail some ingenuity and creativity. Not for nothing but, the Buick Century front ends were not the prettiest, so whatever you do will be a vast improvement.
When you get a chance, check out Jim's (Liquidh8)'s build. He put a bunch of work into his bumpers. They look awesome.
I've seen your work in the past(and present), so I know you're more than capable and up to the task.

Good for you, Jack! That is one snappy car alright!
Thanks Ed,
Any new developments on your Cruiser? I recall the last thing you were working on was the interior.

got the seats in and set. now i'm working on mixing a color for all the interior plastic...not looking for a stock color, i want a deep maroon. the 1st and second attempt were too red...just set up another batch to try. i'll let you know how it turns out.

I'm sure it will turn out well. Are you thinking of a color like oxblood/ claret?
