Its been a long time coming finally getting to drive this killer old 1955 Buick Roadmaster! We saved this old Buick from rotting into the ground at its final resting place. It was abandoned not by choice but unfortunately the last owner passed very suddenly, and it sat for over 20 years in a yard with an abandoned 1966 GTO that we were also given the opportunity to save. This Buick is a lot better car than that GTO, unfortunately the old goat had a rough life and is full of rust. The Buick really only needs floor patches, the main body of the car is super solid. We have been slowly restoring this cool old hotrod one piece at a time. Serviced everything, new wheel cylinders and rubber brake lines, a little bit of wiring and some fuel. She ran and ran good at that! Finally got those killer baby moon factory Buick hubcaps mounted with a set of used tires so we could cruise it around the yard. Now she's getting CHEAP interior! I cleaned and painted the floors with rustolium rusty metal primer to seal it. Then some ratrod style road sign floor pans and license plates to patch the holes. a $20 dollar roll of cheap indoor/outdoor carpet from Olies Bargin barn. The factor rear seat is in fantastic shape, unfortunately the from seat was ruined from weather and rodents. I scored this cheap bench seat on marketplace for the front for $80 bucks! Its out of a 1953 Chevy pickup... its about 8-10 inches to narrow. But its better than a milk crate! And we sold the C10 shop truck!

Not too sure about the color of that carpet, but then you said 20$, and suddenly that carpet looked damn good! haha Definitely a cool car. Definitely should try and find a wider front seat though.

Haha I’m with you on the color but it’s hard to argue with the price! No doubt I’ve been watching marketplace looking for a usable 4 door tri 5 gm seat to buy and just throw a blanket over
