New member just today. Can't figure out how to post. Finally decided to reply to you. Can you help me and tell me how to make a post? I have a question about restoring my 41 Buick.
Thanks, Henry Hopkins

Hello,
I am brand new to this website, and am not exactly sure who I should be writing to, but wanted to post something that I have for sale that someone might be interested in.
I have a dealer catalog in excellent condition from 1941 showing all the buick models inside and out. Also specifications etc. This is particularly special since that is the year that I was born. Very exciting to look at.
Perhaps whoever is reading this could direct me to the right place to be posting such a thing. My email address is bimjales@hotmail.com.
Sincerely, Jim Bales

Hello:
I'm just finishing up a 1937 Roadmaster 80C Convertible which I hope to show at Hershey this fall, and at a BCA national whenever it comes back to the east.
I'm wondering if any of the readers on this site know anything about the reorganization of the 37-38 Buick Club, which I understand basically ceased to operate about a year ago. I've heard stories why it happened, and also stories that it is being revived. Just wondering if anyone had any news. I haven't had a publication from them in over a year and a half.

Dick,
Welcome!
I sent your PWD membership request to our membership chairman Dave Ebert Sr. I am sure he will email you soon.
I have also sent a copy of your 37-38 Buick inquiry to Joe Suarez. I believe Joe will be able to fill you in on what is going on with the 37-38 Buick organization.
I look forward to seeing you and your car in Flint this year. Have you signed up for the PWD AfterTour?

I am a new pre-war forum member as of today. I own an all-original 1929 Buick Model 27 4-door. Just bought THAT yesterday. Long-time member of the BCA (#2500) and recently sold my business, Factory Automanuals. I've been nosing around for an early ORIGINAL Buick--found it sooner than expected.
I will read entries here often, and will draw on expertise when I know what questions to ask. See you at Flint 2008!

Hi to Mark S and fellow Buick Pre-WII owners. Im coming into a 1928 Buick Sedan - intact - but will need substantial work. I have a few questions that you might be able to answer to get me moving in the right direction. On conversions - electrical (6-12 v), brakes (always nice to have modern working system), keeping the straight 6cyl overhead value engine - at least my goal - Any recommended sources for engine rebuild kit,etc.?
Ron

Hello to All,
Don't know if the first attempt tot post made it. Interested in picking your brains....28 4-dr Sedan (straight 6 cyl. overhead value w/3 speed man trans) undertaking to acquire & restore. Would like to keep orginal engine - rebuild - and do brake conversion or upgrade. Electrical upgrade, too. Your suggestions and recommendatins to sources of parts, etc. most appreciated as I begin this journey. On a mechanical ability scale 0-10, I m about 2.5 - 3.5 on a good day provided I have the time. Will have friendly mechanic manage while I hand him the wrenches.
Ron

Ron,
Welcome to the group. I suggest you post some photos of your car, brakes, wiring, etc before you decide to make changes. The mechanical brakes work fine if they are not too badly worn and adjusted properly. The wiring harness is available through several sources. I suggest you keep the original six volt system to save much time and work.
Try posting a little further down the forum list next time. You will probably get more responses.

Dan, just saw your post about your "new" Buick. Congratulations. Looking forward to seeing it at one of our Buicktown Chapter summer meetings. My '41 is in the process of a total restoration. Hope to have it back for the 2009 touring season.
