It's definatly a 54 Buick.  The bumpers do look nice, if the upper grill bar is in good shape I would be interested in it.

If you take it apart you could knurl the flywheel where the ring gear press fits on, or hit it with a sharp center punch all around the surface of the flywheel where the ring gear fits onto.  Neither of these would affect the balance but would require flywheel removal.  You could also try center punching right where the ring gear meets the flywheel all around the circumference of the flywheel through the hole that the starter fits into, or under the oil pan if the access plate gives enough room. I would try this first as the flywheel doesn't need to be removed to do it.  Brian
