should i restore it a lil?

I have two cars, both given to me.

A Buick Century, and a 89 Buick Skylark..

I was thinking about restoring the Skylark, putting a bigger motor in it, and maybe running it down the track with my friend..


but it has some holes, some rust, and some restorations it needs done badly. I'd basically be re-doing the whole car..

should i do it?

why? cost?

Century is 88 i think, its an 80s model i know that..

the Skylark has a Quad 4 in it..i'd throw a bigger motor in it and use the quad 4 in a dune buggy or something.

depends on how much rust you got. You can cut the rust out and weld new panels in, thats relatively easy. Can you find an older skylark?? The year you got is cool but the old 60s and 70s ones are kickass. that way you can keep the motor and rebuild the stock block
