All of the kids in my son's second grade get "birthday books" made up of drawings and well wishes from their classmates. Since Woody's birthday is in the summer and tomorrow is the last day of school, the kids drew a bunch of pictures and the teacher stapled them together in a book.
This is what Woody's friend Caleb drew:

Clearly it is a Torque Monster. The front wheels are off the ground!!!
The details and color scheme that he recalled were pretty amazing.

Roger,
Maybe you are right. Should this be moved to the Modified Forum?

That is really neat. You must be really proud. But does it take 'all the money in the world' to buy a 1955 Buick? The prices of 1955 Buicks must have really gone up.

I guess it just takes all the money in the world to buy a friend who already has access to several 55's an additional one?

I think it's double plus cool that your son's name is Woody. It works much better than "LeSabre" or "Roadmaster" as a name for a kid whose dad is into Buicks.

I'm happy with just one.
Does that make him a Limited?

Yes, Mike, that would make him a "Limited"! Are you sure you don't want to fill the garage with some more? Nothing wrong with a few hands to help you wrench

Caleb gamely tried to capture the sweepspear and the two-toning that are so essential to Buick styling of the time. This little artist is really challenged though, because there are so few such bold motifs in the design of most of today's cars. They are getting better, though. Happy birthday, Woody, hope you like the new station wagon, too.
