Re: 65 BUICK WILDCAT 4SPD CONVERT
I knew there weren't many 4spd Wildcats, but my knowledge did not amount to much more than that. I've been on V8Buick for a couple of years, and it's one of my favorites. Lots of car guys with other cars frequent it too. I'm glad I could be of service.

Re: 65 BUICK WILDCAT 4SPD CONVERT
It's a shame the tags are all pop riveted. This would be a neat car to drive.
