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.

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

If its been restored to original specs then its amazing for a cheap deal, since it will be worth a lot if kept in that good conditiion. Don't modify it.

^ 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

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

My mom's friend fixes up old caddies and the only thing that sucks about old cars is when you fill up you have to add lead into the gas tank
