Bill's Fat Woody Page (that sounds dirty...)
Here's where I'll keep updates on the Fat Woody Posted. She's a Dark Cherry Metallic 1995 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon Limited. When I finally got my Impala, I was still driving (and loving) the Original Fatwagon. But I decided I needed to have a matching 95 DCM set! So I called Fred ("Ruphrax" on ISSF and "mostly_unusual_cars" on eBay) and told him my needs. He found my car for me really quickly. I bid on it and she was mine. Made a nice little trip out to Waterloo, NY over New Year's weekend 2006 and drove her home. I HIGHLY recommend doing business with him. He's a great guy and has been very helpful after the sale too. Plus, he really loves these cars!!! Anyways, enough with the shameless plug... ;)
Like I said before, I loved the utility of the Fatwagon, but she was lacking in the power department. I needed the same type of car, just with an LT1 instead of the anemic LO3. So this car fit the bill perfectly. And no need to worry about the Fatwagon either, I sold her to one of my girl's best friends and she loves the car and will take great care of her. :)
So what am I going to do with this one? Well, drive it in the winter and haul stuff. I already put a set of aluminum rims and studded snows (that came in the trunk of the Impala when I bought it) and that really changed the "attitude" of the car! I love the way they look. I had planned to put a stereo in it, tint it and be done with it. So far, I've done the stereo, rims, and installed a hardwood floor (YES! a REAL hardwood floor in the cargo area), some exhaust work with Caddy leftovers, some maintenance and am enjoying it as a driver.
Here's a what she looked like when I picked her up.

And here she is now.

And here's how I hope she'll look with some tint. :)

So that's it for now. When I have some more time, I'll put up some links for mods as they come, but I don't have any planned at this time... ;)
