jvelde Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 1 of the 9 RHD '36 Convert Coupes exported? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budensor Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) Yes ! It's a 1936 Buick but there's no way to know the Model because the Grill was about the only thing that was used on all models ! But I'm going Say 66C Edited December 16, 2014 by Budensor Make changes (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

50jetback Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 1936 Century 66C X Convertible CoupeThe registration plate should have pushed you in the right direction!John V showed he's been paying attention http://forums.aaca.org/f165/attn-dave-corbin-284100.htmlWe really miss Dave and his terrific production/build data.Okay, some more photos. I purchased the car a few years ago and of course decided to re-do a few things!( see photos when white with red trim ) So a few years on after sourcing missing/incorrect parts ( mostly from the USA ) including front seat, headlights. sidemount locks, taillights and then replacing the wooden frame, new floor, paint colour change and re-trim in leather it is finally finished - well almost. Still have a couple of fiddly jobs to complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in Perth this past June visiting my Daughter who lives there. She in fact is on a plane as we speak coming back to Cincinnati, Ohio with her Aussie boyfriend for the holidays. I hope break him in on old cars and have him help me put a rear end(bad ring gear project) back into my 12 McLaughlin-Buick and go for a ride.Tom MuthCincinnati, Ohio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anzac Buick64 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Stuart Fantastic effort. Guys I saw this car in the metal just 2 months ago when it was nearly finished and it is in a word..Unbelievable . it is way better than the photos of it here imply. Stuart this car is a credit to your enthusiasm,attention to detail and meticulous craftmanship. well done and it is a car you should be extremly proud of. I saw it in the metal because I was there buying another Buick. Its a serious disease these Buick cars..Cheers and Congratulations StuartAndrew BCA 47050 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
