Bill you’re really blessed. To be doing this on almost a daily basis and with your son no less is awesome! I don’t have children and have to enjoy my classic cars by myself. Most my friends have no interest in them either sadly

Great video, you do mention at 4:31 that "the 350 has got really good power and is really smooth"...the engine is a 455 cu. in. with 205 net horsepower.

Not on this one! There was a shortage of 455's at the end of 1976. A very few of these had 350's, this was one of them. Thanks!

@@christianbugatticg That is quite interesting. I wonder how many were built during the strike? I realize that GM offered a rebate to those that took the option. Hard to fathom this large and heavy of a car with an already strangled 455 V8 with a weaker 350 V8. It would seem that Buick offered a $159 credit for taking this 155HP engine over the 205HP standard engine. It can be checked by the VIN number which will have "J" in the 5th position instead of a "Y". Of course sane drivers (not me) would never have noticed! Again, great video.
