This is a highly customized 1956 Buick Special 4dr hardtop. 322ci Nailhead engine, 2 spd Dynaflo tranny. 84,000 original miles, runs well, especially for the crappy gas we have nowadays. New whitewall tires ~5000km ago, body is in pretty decent shape overall although a paintjob wouldn't be out of the question since it's currently a semi-flat black which most people aren't fans of. '59 Caddy caps on the 15" steelies, lowered 4 1/2", shaved handles/locks/emblems/hood ornaments/body trim, full custom black and silver interior, upgraded 6 speaker stereo(electrical system converted from original 6v to 12v), polished aluminum fuel cell mounted in trunk, new MSD hi flow fuel pump.

I'm sure there's stuff that I'm missing, but as you can see from the pics this car is a real head turner.

Email if you would like to see more pics, I'll have to go pull the cover off the car to do so....but that's not a huge deal if enough people are interested in seeing them.

I wouldn't change a thing, including the colour.

(and unfortunately I don't have the bucks for it unless you're interested in trading for my '69 Chev pickup or something:D ) Not unless you happen to have an '89 R32 Skyline GTS-T on a trailer behind that truck!:thumbsup:

Sorry about my lack of replies about the car, I do not frequent these boards, especially since my net was being all wonky. If you guys are still interested please let me know.

Interior shots, please excuse the model, I haven't had a chance to grab some new pics yet this year. These were last summer.
