@alsancle What model is this with the triple carbs?

@BuickGuy68 Speed Six with a special triple racing intake. I think there were some factory ones, but this manifold was part of a batch cast in the 1950s.

@alsancle That is what I call an engine!

Very cool. Watkins Glenn is a beautiful area overlooking Lake Seneca. Worth a visit for sure.

Ed promised a driving report so I'll let him do it. I rode in 3 different cars this week and did 150 miles of driving in the Speed Six. It is hard to put in to words how incredible these cars are. They are road going locomotives.

@alsancle Not too shabby, eh?

@Peerless28 Jeff, I've become a believer. My dad was always negative on these because he didn't like the RHD and said they drive like a truck. They are a very fast truck, I can tell you that.

We had to drive the car 90 miles east to meet up with the Reliable truck. Not a big deal for Tom and I as we were heading east anyways. Loading to the bottom of the trailer is slightly nerve racking, loading to the top with the elevator 10 feet of the ground is VERY nerve racking. Luckily it was low but I made Tom load it anyways.
