TrueCustom's 1962 Buick Special

 

This is my '62 Buick Special V6. It's been sitting for a while, and it's time to get to work on it.

TrueCustom's 1962 Buick Special I haven't found any rot in the bodywork yet, and it's never been in an accident. It may be a simple matter to fix it.

Trivia:

The '62 Buick Special is the first American car to have a V6, and the last Buick to have a generator instead of an alternator.

The Fireball V6 is the ancestor of most modern GM V6 engines, including their most famous V6, the 3.8 GNX engine.

This is the inspiration for my car. Now if only I could get MY car on Gran Turismo.
