1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Century heres my rear speaker(the other one looks the same, in case you were wondering)
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Centuryheres my muffler and the window sticker that came with it. it sounds really good and will do the job until i put on dual exhaust.its a little dirty but what do you expect?
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Century
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Centuryheres the paint scheme.its kinda hard to tell in the other pics.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Centurythis really sucks. my windshield got cracked when we were takin off trim prior to painting.the crack keeps gettin bigger too. a new windshield for this sucker is about 275 bucks on the net but ill find a cheaper one.Thats my brothers 1988 Olds Cutlass Supreme Classic.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick CenturyHeres the Buicks home. this is also where she was painted and where most of the custom work was done to her. ill put up pics of some of the other projects that live in here soon.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Century heres the back of the buick all lit up. i love those taillights.you can see my trans am exhaust tip here.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Century heres the front all lit up.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Centurythis is the buick emblem on the trunk lid.(notice the trunk lock. i have to use a screw driver since i broke the key.im not getting a system in here till i get the trunk to where i can lock it.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Century side view of the engine. still all stock.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Century with the hood up.

1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Century ground level front end.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Century heres the Hurst Equipped emblem installed on the trunklid.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Centuryheres another problem-my trunk leaks.i have to get it fixed before it rusts thru.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Centuryheres my spare. its the original one. only been on the ground once.i put tire shine on it so it looks good.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Century heres my wheel. this is the set thats goin on the car.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Centurythis shows off the shiny paint and the postless doors.also shows how its not a cheap-o paint job since we painted inside the doors and trunk.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Century heres the turn signals up front. these are awesome since they have the buick emblem and are clear with orange bulbs.
1973bcluxus's 1973 Buick Century more Photoshop.

Nice ride! My Century is a 1977 4-door. I love these cars! Nice to see another one with the same body style.

I'm back - thought of some other things. I'm new to this whole web thing. Through the years I've owned several vehicles that I wish I still had. '74 Nova 2dr - 400 small block - 400tranny - chrome rally wheels (think stock Camaro) - brown sparkle paint with black vinyl top - Pioneer tape deck (this was in 1981-1982). 1946 Willy's Jeep CJ2A - reconditioned army - still had the field radio hook-up diagrams on metal plates attached to the dash - gun mount in the shorty bed (.50 caliber?) - 289 from an old mustang - 4 spd trans - Ford 9 inch rear end - International lockout hubs - vacuum operated wipers - no stereo - never should've sold it. 1972 Dodge Polara big-block - fun cruiser. First car was a 1970 Ford Maverick I bought from my dad when I was 14 for $500 (1977). 2dr yellow w/black stripes - straight six - 3 on the tree. I could go on for a while; I've owned 20 or so. I'm in the middle of building a 1964 Studebaker Commander. I'll figure out how to put pictures on here. Hope I didn't bore you. Later.

Nice ride! I just bought my daughter a '73 Century for her first car. It is also a low-mileage Luxus - 49,000 orig. - 350-2bbl - Auto - A/M radio - P/W - PDL - A/C - PSeats - Cruise - Analog clock. I haven't done anything except a tune-up yet, no pix either. I'll stay in touch.
