krinkov58 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Here's my '52 Buick Roadmaster...first hardtop I've ever owned. Bought this in February after selling my 1951 Roadmaster 72R prior to a move to Maine. Good to have an old Buick in the garage again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric W Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Looks like the one that was recently on Craigslist. Looked good under the hood as well, I believe. I've got 95% of a '51 of that same model. As in, someone started "restoration" somewhere along the way which consisted of removing a bunch of stuff and losing it... It will be a while before mine is as together as yours already is, but I guess I like puzzles. Good luck with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krinkov58 Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 Eric, I nearly bought that Roadmaster you have...I negotiated but the guy wanted way too much if I recall, and missing a rear seat too? I like the wide lower window beltline trim, smooth rear fenders and trunk lid on the '51 Roadmasters better than the '52's. I've had a 72R in both years before. My '52 has good paint and decent chrome and the interior is somewhat original but it has some minor issues with just about everything. It's more like a 90% done restoration. It had a bad exhaust leak upon arrival so I have the manifolds at a machine shop now to be refaced but the center section is pretty bad which is par for the course with most '52 320 exhausts.

JohnD1956 Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 What a teaser picture... LOL... Where abouts in Maine are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krinkov58 Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 Yeah my garage is pretty small...couldn't much of the car in the photo. Next week if my manifolds are back from the machine shop and the snow is reasonably melted I'll take her outside for a few pics. I'm in Oxford County, ME and we still have plenty of the white stuff.
