First of all, hi there I'm new here. Have them some looking around on some of these posts and it sounds like there is a wealth of knowledge in this forum. I look forward to learning in contributing. Have always been a GM guy but never owned a Buick until now. I just purchased a 53 Buick special and it's in Fairly good condition All Things Considered. I'm sure if I looked through all of the pages I can find the answers to these questions and as soon as I post this thread I will start looking I just thought I would get it out there and maybe somebody could set me straight right out of the box. The 3-speed in this car has a loud whine. Is that normal for these cars? To that end , where is the filler for gear oil on this trans? When the clutch is let out I have somewhat of a grinding noise. Throwout bearing? Is there something specific that these Transmissions are called? So I know what to look for when looking for parts? Radio does not work, does anybody know the exact location of the fuse? I looked under the dash and I see where they are but it's kind of hard to see what fuse is what. I guess I could always start pulling them one by one. I have a ton of other questions, but I don't know if I've already overstayed my welcome. LOL if these are very rudimentary questions please don't jump all over me. This is an awesome car and I'm just getting started in restoring it. Thanks ahead of time.
