I think I'm gonna make it.
Did a nice list of "go-faster" engine mods this year.

Thanks to all who have helped.

Looking forward,

I forget from last year -- but in the drawing it shows you using the Buick "portholes" as exhaust outlets.  Are you?  How absolutely cool - to use them for something other than adornments.

Sure look forward to hearing (and seeing, of course) the car in person really soon.

Jeff, Mike C. is bringing his 1950 Buick back to the salt this SW after missing a year. Also looking forward to seeing you again.

They're not "Portholes". They're "CRUISERLINE VENTIPORTS". I'm not making it up.  :-o Wayno

Wayne, you're dating yourself if you still remember the advertising words used by Buick.  I kinda expected there'd be some catchy name -- just am too young to know it. :roll:

Wayno ,

If the Portholes are technically Cruiserline Ventiports...
What on earth should we call the Dagmars?

I can't wait to meet that 50' Buick .

Jeff that artwork is very cool, would you mind if I used it for a tattoo? :-D
I can't wait to see and hear your car again, it was all the buzz last year.
No regrets
