Re: Passing the reins to our Grandson
This is quite the honor for a 16 year old gear head. He knows the procedure, having been a participant with his Schwinn, and his fathers Chevelle, and his Grandfathers '62 Impala 409/409! The Dykstra tradition continues!

Moe, Larry And Curley!!!LOL
It's still hard to imagine that the Turbo Regal has antique vehicle plates. The car looks great, Jakes! Dave Dykstra

Re: Passing the reins to our Grandson
The car looks great. I always liked seeing that car in the Dykstra driveway. One of the reasons I eventually bought one.
It might be best to keep Uncle Dave from getting behind the wheel and showing the youngster a few bad habits. -Butch

Re: Passing the reins to our Grandson
That's great to see your son take an interest in these cars. The Turbo Buicks were king when I was in HS and I've always loved them.

Re: Passing the reins to our Grandson
That car never saw the inside of a garage for 21 years! When we handed it over to Jacob, in 2006, it had at least 130,000 miles. The trans in it now, is the 3rd rebuild of the original trans. I had a friend from our car club, who did only Buick Turbo cars. He rebuilt the original trans, and that lasted about a year. I took it back to him, and he said, "I'll build you a trans that you cannot hurt"! That's the trans that's in it now. Consider this...every Tuesday, Wednesday, and some Friday nights, during the summer months, that car and our son Dave's '68 Camaro were regulars at Union Grove Drag strip.......FOR THREE YEARS!!! We drove them up there, and raced them all night (8-10 passes) and drove 'em back home...a distance of 74 miles each way....never broke down, never overheated!
