yellowsportwagon Posted August 23, 2020 Posted August 23, 2020 A pretty good built unpainted but not overly glued rebuilder. Blown apart cleaned sanded and painted. Looking at doing a blue interior as pictured. Replaced the unknown wheels with a spare set of Buick road wheels. Will probably lower it a little more.Was missing the engine but I lucked out and found a complete unbuilt engine.
gman Posted August 24, 2020 Posted August 24, 2020 That is a very rich looking paint job- turning out great!
Spottedlaurel Posted August 24, 2020 Posted August 24, 2020 That paint choice is perfect, it looks fantastic.

doorsovdoon Posted August 24, 2020 Posted August 24, 2020 I like that! Looks similar colour combo to my '62 Electra.
espo Posted August 25, 2020 Posted August 25, 2020 Great looking rescue. Your color choice shows the body lines well and your vinyl roof looks good also. Are you able to get the bucket seat interior ?

Are you able to get the bucket seat interior ? It came with buckets and the unusual Buick only shorty console. Basically a glove box between the seats. I will make a column shifter and turn signal stalk for it.

yellowsportwagon Posted August 25, 2020 Author Posted August 25, 2020 I don’t have any kind of console to use besides what I have from the kit. Never seen a similar console to the picture in a kit. The picture is mostly for color reference.
yellowsportwagon Posted August 31, 2020 Author Posted August 31, 2020 Here’s the interior done except to give the console top a wash. A shot of the body with foil done. I managed to mess up the windshield so I’m looking for a replacement ?
TimJ Posted August 31, 2020 Posted August 31, 2020 Love the colour and vinyl roof. I hope you can get another windshield.
