This is Ron's '37 Buick Special Business Coupe. It has a straight 8, which isn't something you see many of anymore, & it puts out 107 fire-breathing horsepower!
Stock, of course, even to the tube tires.

What a beautiful car!

Nicely captured.

It might be only 107 horsepower, but I'll bet it has lotsa' torque. I'm assuming they're talking about hydraulic valve lifters with the "Silent Oil Cushioned" business.

I'm not short. I'm concentrated awesome!

Very nice Frank. That engine alone was well worth having photos of. :D

The Captain and crew finally got their stuff together, now if we can only remember where we left it. :cool:

That would be my guess, too.
Thank's guys!

Valves in the head? What will they think of next, cruise control?
I love those stock restorations. I gotta get some shots of my Dad's '50 Chevy pickup.
Keep 'em comin' Frank!
