Since you said leave ignorant comments at the front door i'll come threw the back or threw the window.. j/k I love it its pretty pimp.. if you do get something like this you gotta spray it over in Candy apple red and then get some white interior ;]

I'd go with this. I'd drop it, paint it black and put 5% tint all around. Oh...and add well picked chrome rims.

check out the difference between the 57 and 58 buicks..... at first i was told it was a 57 but a 58 is still nice.......... (57 link, orange one isnt stock) http://www.buickbombsight.org/1957.html
to answer a couple of you, yes it will be restored to beyond perfect condition
and yea ive been considering red but probably black up top and red beneath chrome line.
or else im thinking the stock green like on that other one and then white below chrome and on roof then ill put white interior with the teal green piping and accents

^ nindoo, its currently only needing some body work but no major rust areas (weld points, frame, window surrounds, floorpans) and it actually runs. the only thing is that i want to rebuild the engine so it runs strong with its 250 hp in a 4500 lb car (rougly).
and any modification will have to get by my dad so i doubt that will happen unless i do something that is easily undone like lower it and throw on some rims

sweet. nothing better than driving around in a classic. my dad and i have plans to restore one, though we haven't picked what model yet. have fun with the buick.
thanks, you should look into an old chevy, like a chevelle malibu, camaro, chevelle ss, maybe something ford but i dislike them. pretty much something popular otherwise your going to be paying out your butt for even the littlest parts for the car especially chrome. luckily the buick has all its chrome it just needs dent removal and polish
