Lightning is no fun. This is the tree right next to my garage. It was hit by lightning last week. It took a 4-inch section of wood and bark off from the top at 45 feet, all the way to the bottom. Very scary. I guess it was God's way of telling me I should drive my cars more often and not just leave them sitting in a garage all the time!

Spoke to the owner of this car - very nice fellow. This is one bad beast. He is quite the Buick freak and knows how to build and dial these cars in. He runs this car with some regularity at the strip. He reports that the car has dipped into the TENS! Sounds very nice when its running. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/laugh.gif

BTW, the green '70 442 convertible, 4 speed that Bruce mentions/shows above, belongs to a friend of mine who wants to sell it. I told him I wld circulate it for him at the local car show (such a sacrifice on my part https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif). Car was frame off restored locally 18 mos. ago and 1400 miles ago. Numbers matching block, M21. She drives beautifully and pulls nicely and never overheated in a 1.5 hr round trip in 100+ temps.

Offers considered in mid $40's.

Thanks,
Sam

Re: Pavillions 8-05-05
 
According to our home builder, we are grounded somehow in case of a lightning strike...don't exactly understand how that works...It seems like any of the houses that I've heard of around here that were struck by lightning were a total loss?!

Our house in Palatine, Illinois had a lightning rod that was struck twice in the 5 years we lived there...scared the $hit out of me! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/ooo.gif

Also, The car that Sam drove to Pavillions was EXTREMELY nice.

Yea Ken...I don't know what's up with the reflections on this car...I'll make sure that the owner sells me the car cheap. I'm sure that he didn't even know about the reflections being there...kinda makes it look goofy, huh? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif
