Youre going to need another transmission or an adapter kit. The TH-200 is a BOP bellhousing (Buick Olds Pontiac Cadillac) Chevy has its own bell housing. Also the 200 is kind of wimpy so youd...

I have a 55 Buick with a 264 2 barrel with Dynaflow. I know people will tell me to just put in a 322 and a 4 speed but they're hard to find and expensive so I just want to work with what Ive already...

I finally got a good WCFB Core to build on my 55. Just curious who makes the best rebuild kit out there? Ive seen a few available and I was hoping someone would know from experience.

Thanks Jacob that's a great idea, I also found them in 15x7 and 15x8.. Im thinking 15x8 in the rear and 15x7 in front. So I can really have a nice foot print on my tires....

On another note, I...

So is the 50s my cut off date? When did Buick change the center bore of the wheels? Seems they kept the bolt pattern forever...

So what is out there that we can use? Ive seen a lot of pictures of 55 Buicks running Buick Rallye Wheels, do they just have a bigger opening in the center?

I have a 55 Buick Special my original wheels have a bunch of rust, especially in the bead seats. I bead sealed them and they still leak a little over time. So rather than try to make it all work, I...

I just got my WCFB in the mail today it looks pretty good, except that the plastic choke cover got smashed in the mail. Where can I find another one? I see alot of them for Chevys will they fit? Or...

OK I will try.

New problem I just got the carb today in the mail, and the plastic choke housing is smashed into pieces. Doesnt seem to be any other damage to the carb, but where can I find another...

You are probably hitting the High Spot on the fuel pump Eccentric. Try turning the engine with a ratchet a little at a time, and try fitting the fuel pump, eventually youll find the low spot and the...

that kind of sucks. Heres an even better question then. I read somewhere that 56 Buicks had a steering column with a rag joint. From what I understand the 70s Saginaw steering boxes actually bolt to...

Youre saying you rebuilt it about 10,000 miles ago right? Just making sure....

Were the heads rebuilt and are the guides ok? My firend had an old Maverick with the 200 straight six and it ran ok,...

I have a 55 Special with the 264 Nailhead and Dynaflow Transmission, it's bone stock and ungodly slow. I finally tracked down a 54 322 manifold and a WCFB 4 barrel that decodes to 55 and 56 Buick....

My concern is cutting and welding the steering shaft. Generally once you weld 2 pieces the metal on each side of the weld becomes more likely to break. Which sounds kind...

Most likely your problem is a plugged radiator or heater core. Considering your block was tanked and all I doubt its sediment in the block or anything. Ive had this problem on a few of my Old cars...

I have a 55 Buick special with the 264 in it. I've been searching for a long time trying to find a power steering setup for it. I think I may have found something however I'm not sure about the donor...

Sorry about that, I didnt realize I never did an introduction. My name is Anthony Im from Paramus NJ. Ive been into cars since I was 12 my dad taught me how to do brakes, oil changes, and tune ups,...

Tom,
I actually really did consider the aluminum drums, they sound like a fantastic idea. You get a wider brake shoe and a nice aluminum drum to help dissipate the heat. I did the research a while...

Thats awesome I wish you a lot of luck with it. I plan to daily drive mine also, so its good to hear from someone who understands my mind set. Most of the time people just say its a 50s car accept...

Hey guys,
For years Ive been putting off the restoration of my 55 Buick Special because the brakes worked so miserably. I always just imagined my self crashing it right after getting all the body...

Thanks, for the advice. I'm just curious I have a drain plug in the front of the trans pan, facing the engine. Mine actually does. I'm going to go up and change then both tonight.

isnt a 79 like 5/8 or 11/16?

My nailhead and dynaflow have drain plugs that are an inch or more.

Really no one has changed their own oil on this site? Come on

I have a 55 Buick with a 264 and dynaflow. Its currently sitting in a storage lot about 30mins from home. I want to change the oil before moving it and drain the dynaflow and refil it. My little go...
