Cool thread, sweet car man. Love the '61 styling. Kudos

Thanks man. Bolt in kit, was labeled for an impala wagon. I'm too busy with work so getting installed by simon @airride nz. Happy with results so far.

Exhaust out, Airride in, height sensors still to be installed. Remote shock mounts for front suspension also needs doing. Tank and pumps under False floor in boot.

So I finally got some more wheels. 14x7 Globes for the front & 14x8 steelies on the rear look good. 205/70 whitewalls all round. Don't see many blacked out Globes and their not to everyone's taste, but I like 'em.

Left Wellys this morning. Sweet trip home, no problems. Exhaust cackles a bit in a small rev range, not cool, need to remedy that. One brake/indicator light is dim so it may have an earth fault? Engine bay needs a de-grease & water blast.

I've just picked up this boat from Blenheim.
Currently waiting in Picton for the ferry.
Goes good so far, for the 20 minutes I've driven it...
300ci small block buick
Plan is to throw an Accuair system in it for Max levels of Aceness.

Excuse my misunderstandings, but would installing drop spindles circumvent the need to dick with the geometry of everything?

Microwave or heat in oven and reuse again and again

Parked outside the Famous TePuke Bakery one day with the Lads to get a feed,
Greeted by the lovely older ladies behind the counter with a "love your car" & "oh I remember those!"
All good, pretty standard affair, thanked them etc, left store.
the last one of the boys to come out of the shop was pissing his pants laughing.
He said as we left the first old girl said to the other "mmmm yes lost my virginty in one of those" and the other replied
"Yes I to have fond memories of the back seats of Valiants!"
Was pretty funny at the time
Other than that, everytime I get Fuel some old geezer will roll up for a "I used to have one of those" yarn. All good love it

Dirty_Safari's '64 Buick LeSabre
in Projects and Build Ups
Posted
Had a blast in this so far, travelled many miles.
Huntly Burnouts, WRCC Spring fling, Rocket open day, Tokoroa drags. Heading to Rebel Roundup this weekend
Accuair is the business, Highly recommend. Get into it.
I like the stock hubcaps but wanted options.
A mate of mine had some Detroit's on an earlier Buick Super, but he didn't like them. So I chucked them on to see if they would suit. I think they look pretty cool, so deal was struck.
