I appreciate that! Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for watching!

@@hanagharmantoceleste5787 thank you!

Thank you! I’m a big fan of the old school colors as well!

Thank you! Definitely would be a great one to keep, but can’t keep them all and unfortunately this one is already gone.

@@Rustwrangler Yell I guess a lot of people would love to have her.I had a 81 yrs ago.Got a 83 grand prix now.God bless you.

Didn’t ruin it at all, pretty much all of these key locks on these cars are available online or at parts stores.

Thank you! Appreciate that! We have collected a few more trucks since, and plan on building a few more.

That’s awesome, back when they built cars to last!

Thank you, if I remember correctly, the highboy had a removable tunnel, but the 2wd donor truck did not, that’s why we cut it out to receive the bolt in tunnel from the highboy body.

32 years according to the previous owner.

@Rustwrangler Those Rims aren't 32 years old though.

Blown vacuum modulator diaphragm on the transmission.

It was the 200

Yea, would have been one to keep, but unfortunately, can’t keep them all.

A lot of people were interested in this car, my buddies phone was blowing up, but the majority of them were tire kickers and not many would commit.

Was told by the older woman that owned it, that her son/grandson was messing with it, trying to get it back on the road.

@@Rustwrangler I think somebody tried to steal it, after which the relative took the steering wheel off to replace the broken key cylinder.

The plan was to keep it, but got an offer we couldn’t turn down.

@@stevee4636 couldn’t find it, but I did google “spellcheck”, you should try it!

Yea that’s crazy to think about!

NO this car deserves to be kept original. So sick of everyone having a bug up their ass to modify these classic cars. They need to be kept original and preserved for future generations to see just as their designers intended them to be. It is called respect.

Thats right!

That is a chevy 229, also a 3.8. Dead giveaway is the distributor placement. On the Buick 231, the distributor is in the front angled toward the driver side.

@@williamsinger4124 It's a 200 ci. The 229 didn't come out till 1980.

They’re indestructible like the Chevy 4.3-litre Vortec V-6

@@thomaslord7995 I totally forgot about that baby V6 lol. I stand corrected

Is this a 60 degree or 90 degree V6?

Yea that was not ideal!

To be honest I thought this car was a little bigger than that, they are really quite small. At first when we checked the trans fluid, I would not have thought it would need that much more, but once it started circulating it, it apparently barely had any in there. There was coors light present, it just happened so fast, there wasn’t much time to have any! Lol

He does not, I may ask him if there is anywhere he will be sharing the progress. Possibly on a few Cadillac Facebook pages.

@@Rustwrangler that's will be great 👍

Did you get rid of it?

Haha, it sure was, and it sure did! Was fun, but not much of a challenge on this one.

Haha, I’m just glad we didn’t hit a pothole at that moment!

Haha, fitting!

Yep, ran great, but not much power.

Yes, it was owned by an older woman, and she parked it back in 02, it was my understanding that her son or grandson may have tinkered with it and threw some of those new parts on it, but never got around to finishing it.

Hey guys, yea this would be a really fun car to do a motor swap in, it would make a great sleeper. someone already bought it though.

HA!! GREAT!!! COORS LIGHT...

😂 absolutely none! Lol

Lol, I was actually kind of bummed out, I really look forward to the carb fires now! 😂

Quick release! 😂

😂 what a road to do that on too!

Safety third 😂🤣🤣

Right on! Would make a great sleeper car!

We had to bring those wheels with to pick it up. The wheels on it were shot.

Super solid car, and it was definitely too easy! But still fun!

Yup, we had an 80 4 door, rear windows were solidly fixed.

My sister and brother-in-law bought a wagon in 78 and the kids hated that the rear windows did not roll down.

Yes it is! 300 inline 6

@Rustwrangler those are the Koolest, I wouldn't change a thing, even leave points in Her!!!

Gentleman that bought it is doing a complete custom restoration, not ghostbusters though.

@Rustwrangler still will be nice to see the grand ol girl come back to life.

It sure is! We have a lot of fun working on these old cars!

Haha, yea just used them as rollers!

@Rustwrangler definitely! Lol
