Friggin moldings must have weighed 20 pounds, plus they are rare in excellent shape, a guy on the b body forum told me he got $250 for his and one was damaged pretty good, so eBay FTW

Also I have 17" 94-96 Impala SS rims for it, going to strip the clear coat and polish them out and mount them in the spring

Also working on getting a intake for it and doing some free mods

Time and money (mostly money) hasnt allowed me to do too much but I should get alot accomplished in the spring (stall, gears, cam, headers/exhaust)

I’m just wondering, what ever possessed you, to modify a Buick Roadmaster?

I thought those moldings went on with clips, and there were holes drilled? Looks clean, I love cars like that:)

because I am going to throw a cam, headers/exhaust, stall/gears and a 100 shot on it and go 11s

I am going to dub it project Ego Kill

Imagine getting dusted in a Z06 by it :shoot:

no, you started it to share it and had to expect opinions…

and when you expect opinions, do you honestly expect every one of them to be positive and/or match yours?

i find it ironic that you can post both of these statements in the same thread…and not expect to be called out on it…

you clearly demonstrated your opinion about my car, and i didn’t respond…because i’m OK with you having an opinion…

in turn, you should be OK with me having one too.

unfortunately for you, my opinion is the right one :rx3:

Spiffy, but I think you greatly underestimate what it will take to get it moving as fast as you want. That said it looks kind of goofy without the molding, with that vinyl top there could be the photos though.

Speedboats, are sweet though. \<3
