CONCEPT — AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE60 Buick Convertible
§ 01
THE BRIEF
This 1960 Buick convertible is a Hammer Fab concept available to build for the right owner. It rides on our Buick Street Connection chassis upgrades with air ride suspension, so it lays out at a show and cruises flat and quiet on the highway. Power comes from an LS backed by a 4L80E and a 9 inch rear end — the goal is not a dyno number, it's the ability to move this land yacht down the road easily and comfortably, all day long. The stance is set up for a 20 and 22 inch wheel combination tucked under those long fenders. Colors, top material, interior, and detail work are all open — those get discussed with the buyer after purchase. The renderings shown are direction studies, not final specifications.

Chapter by chapter.
Every build is documented as it moves through the shop. Here's how this one came together.
C005Chassis & stance
Our Buick Street Connection chassis upgrades go underneath, with air ride suspension to set the ride height and soak up the miles. Wheel package is planned around a 20 inch front and 22 inch rear combination.
C006Power to move a land yacht
An LS engine paired with a 4L80E transmission and a 9 inch rear end. The focus is easy, effortless power and long-haul reliability rather than headline horsepower.
C007Colors and details open
Paint, top color, wheels, and interior treatment are all still on the table. The renderings show a few directions — white over red, gold over brown, and blue with a gray or brown top — but the final look gets decided with the buyer.
