ol' yeller Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 I know I'm going to get shown up here but I'll kick this off. Just for fun, please tell your age, how many cars you have owned in your lifetime and how many were Buicks. I'm 64, I have owned 63 cars and 1 RV. 12 of those were Buicks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bhigdog Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Older than dirt. First car I bought my wife was a used 37 Buick business coupe. Paid $137.50 for it. Nice car. The kids rode in the back sitting on the floor. Absolutely the worst P.O.S. I've ever owned was a 1968 Buick wagon. I've got 2 Buicks now. ..........Bob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney Eaton Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 (edited) Just had my 78 birthday, I agree with Brian, you can never own too many cars or have enough garage space. In all that time I have owned just 2 foreign cars, a 58 Ford Anglie, and '62 A-H Sprite, First Buick was a 1955 Special 2 dr , 6 other Buicks,'39 Century and 11 Reattas. In addition I have owned at least 35 Corvairs and still have one. I will think about all the others, and give a tally later.... Forgot 2 -1989 Lesabre T types and a 1991 LeSabre in the Buick count. '64 Chevelle, 67 Tempest Safari, 1973 Olds Cutlass Saloon, 1982 Toranodo, '69 & '70 Corvette, 3 GMC pick-ups, '84 Eldorado, Edited July 25, 2017 by Barney Eaton (see edit history) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Schramm Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 First car was a '63 Buick Special station wagon. After that a '68 Opel station wagon, then a bunch of Opel GT's, hundreds of Buick company cars for my work. Too many cars and a lot of trucks that I have owned to even try to remember or count. Currently have about 10 around the house and stashed in a bunch of places with most in my list below. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
