So I've got the '51 buick as the winter project, and I've been amassing parts for it. But the question starts to come up with 'what do I plan to do to it?'
This is an important question because I really have no idea.
Do I want it low and slow, and earn the respect that a straight 8 with a 2 speed might garner? Do I build this '68 472 block I've got in the basement and hook it to a TH400?
With the big inch caddy motor I can get power and actually a considerable amount more reliability out of it - but the straight 8 is just COOL.
Decisions decisions...
Any input is appreciated.
