I got a pair from Eaton. 2" lowered front and back, the rear was a bit lower than I liked so I put a block in to raise it up a bit. That was maybe 3 years ago springs have not set much. Can't lower the front much the grill chin hangs down pretty far.

I took mine apart cleaned it and applied vaseline on all the moving parts inside worked a lot better. Mine is a 38 not that big of a deal.

I did the grill in my 38 Buick. Did not look to bad, have them clear coat after the chrome.

It's brobably more like my 38.

I got grade 8 bolts and ran them thru the back with some loctite. Make sure the center hole will fit over your hub. I had a problem with my 38 Buick. Same lug nuts that are on my 3/4 ton chevy truck.

Looks good. I got the same for my 38 but I'm going to run strombergs or I have two different size carters. And see which filter I want to run.

Look on the Jalopy Journal site. Someone posted a article about making a floor shift from a column shift. Search floor shift.

Should not have two PCV valves. The one in the valve cover should be a hose with a filter in the air cleaner, that is the way I always had them. ?

About the motor Power: is good it runs along with normal traffic, would do better on the highway if it had higher gears, the 38 century had better rear gears. Mileage: havent checked it I'll see and let you know. Brakes: work real good still have the stock drums. Steering: is easy I have a...

I would get the nose on before you see how far you want to drop it, the nose drops down. Here is a shot of my 38 business coupe with 2 inch lowered springs. I could let you know how far the cross member and front panel are from the ground if you like. "I just went back and saw that you linked to...

Buick had what they called a self starter, and that was the way it worked. The starter switch is on the carburetor, right side rear there should be two wires going to it. I have a 38 and that is the way it is, and I have a button under the dash for a backup if the switch on the carb would not...

I have a 38 Buick that I took apart ten years ago. I have found most of the parts, but can't remember how the cowl lacing goes on, mine has the pocket for the wire inside. If someone knows how or were I can find out I would appreciate it.

It's been off the road for ten years. Not all the way done no interior or door glass. But I put about 200 miles on it in the last three days.

Bikes looks good. Intake should look good with those air cleaners when done. I had a 58 Harley sold it about two years ago, still have a 80 and a 65 that was my dads bike.

Getting my dual carb intake ready to put on my car. Carbs rebuilt had the manifolds aluminum coated just have to make gas lines then get the pipes made. Thought maybe someone would like to see. I have two pair's of different size carburetor's, see witch is best.
