I’ll try to get some posted in the next couple days. it’s a 2 door hardtop with a Buick 340 engine sporting ported heads, ported cast iron exhaust manifolds and ported stock intake with a Q-jet. I expect it to run low twelves and look and sound bone stock… Not bad for a “boat Anchor” ---

Hey Bald Menace…likewise to you. Should be interesting to see how many “Boat Anchor” owners show up on here. I don’t know if you know Mike Garrison (RACEBUICKS), but he has spent a driving career using that old 70 of his to send the unsuspecting back home with their tales between their legs. Old steel bodied A body running 10’s all day long with that carbureted big block. No bottle, no squeeze…just massive Buick torque and HP! Another pair of Buick engine builders from up in your area…Rick Henderson and Dave Knutsen built my 462 in the 72’ ---
