  • The last installment of the 1947 Buick Super body swap series. The car gets wired, some new glass, we fire it up and take the beast on a little trip for its first shake-down.

    I've been pacing the floor waiting for an update. I've got exactly the same car, exactly the same chassis...I guess I'm waiting for YOU to make all the mistakes first! Looks like things are coming along really well. It motivates me! Thanks! - Tom in Texas

      Sí. pero es muy superficial. Sería fácil de limpiar para barr metal.

    Guys how come you are not painting any of the door jams on the old Buick, and you are putting new interior in it right.The Body was off the chassis, why wasn’t sandblasted and painted,at least the inside would look nice, when the doors are open

    • @steeledreams2118

      The customer didn’t want to go that distance on this car. The ol’ Buick really has no rust except the surface rust. The interior is actually done now and he is driving the car. I didn’t get any pics of the interior after it was completed. The car will get painted later. He drove it to Vegas for Viva last April.

    Some of those freeway scenes came out awesome! It looks so smooth gliding by cars in the middle lane. Did you get the steering column worked out?

    Thanks for the video on the amazing chassis and drivetrain swap. Such a great idea and execution. Question is the 47 a prewar design carried over from 42? Because I recall new larger rear taillights in 48 then the 49s were redesigned.

    Great job, my only question is why not fuel injection engine

    • @steeledreams2118
      @steeledreams2118  17 дней назад +2

      The 94’ was a throttle body injected and the donor car I bought was a theft recovery. Some stuff was missing including the computer and I just didn’t feel like chasing parts down to complete a throttle body system. If it was the 95-96 then it would have had the z28 style system and that would have been different.
