This week Davin engages project ’Flip, Flop’ and trades our Buick Straight 8 for a Cadillac 365. The Hagerty Learning Garage has been hard at work restoring the 1951 Buick and it’s nearly ready to get its heart installed again. It’s been a long journey with the Straight 8, but there’s no time to reminisce because the Learning Garage has another project ready for us. A beefy Cadillac 365 that seems to be due for a restoration.
