Some of you guys may recognize this truck. We pre-ordered this kit from Tower Hobbies back in 2009 when the SC10 platform first came out. Tried to do this back then, got our hand smacked, and it's been in...

This came up in another post and I didn't want to hijack that one even more, so I started a new one here. Any Lego fans out there? I got back into Lego 7 years ago when my son became interested. I'm not sure which one of us has more sets :D ....

Great collection!
I'm not such a big expert but I enjoy setting up kits together with my son tho.

On to new projects, which is having some minor bodywork done, paint touched up, and the whole thing buffed and polished. When this is done I need to restore all the exterior plastic trim and that should be about it.
Really inconvenient! Tried both windows10 and mac, chrome, edge and safari browsers -- same problem. Hope they will fix it soon. Anyone know what's happened??

You posted a pic and comment on IG about rebuilding the transmission.
FWIW, Jim Halsey does a walk- through of his excellent and thorough technique for tranny construction in the Championship Edition manual. Check it out.
Does anyone know of a local supplier?

Yes it's probably a good case for a group-buy (if enough people want them).

I think instead of using the GT parts find period correct aftermarket parts from companies that just made parts(Tioga, Dia Compe, etc). Then find a period correct GT for the GT parts you have.

I've always had a lot of respect for these Buicks. A friend of mine back in Illinois had a couple of them.
His brother even raced them quite successfully.
