Some of you have seen this car around already. I decided to start a build thread for it. So here it is. 1981 Buick Century. This is what I brought home a couple months ago.
I originally was looking for a car just like this one before I bought my 2003 Buick GS last year, but could not find one. So I hopped up the GS a little bit to make it more fun to drive. Then recently this car came up for sale. It was too good of a deal to pass up, so I bought it. I plan to use this car as my daily beater I can haul my kids in. Beings I have the other beater car and it is still in ok shape i will kind of be juggling between the two cars. This car runs very well, just doesn't have much get up and go. Eventually I will repower this car with a 3800 Series 2 engine i have. Maybe the supercharged engine out of the GS eventually. With the high gas prices right now. I decided to start driving this car every day and let the GS sit for now because the GS runs on 93 octane and the Century can run on 91. A lot cheaper. Good excuse right?
