Dear Dave, A great car! this web certainly has helped bring all the car lovers together. Have you checked out the threat for a 29-49X on TEAM-BHP? WORTH A LOOK! John

Thanks for all your interest and help. Seems it is a 1929 Model 49 - X for export, very logical! Only 2,163 built of which 633 exported. wire wheels and fender mounts an optional extra. Here's a photo of a similar car I saw in New Delhi last year.

Here are some other Buick Photos.

Where are the photos? I will try again! There is a great car website in India "team bhp" which covers cars in general but has a section devoted to Vintage and Classic Cars. I stated a "thread" in the vintage section for this project and have generated some good interest. Check some of my other threads on the Calcutta & New Delhi Statesman Car Rallies the biggest in India with a few Buicks and the Shillong Car Rally in Assam. "The Cartier Car" show in Bombay this past Nov. showcased some of India's finest cars, the "Pebble Beach" of the East! One of the prize winners a 1932 Lancia was restored by Sanjay. Love for our horseless carriages is universal!

I am helping in the research on this restoration and need some assistance to identify the year and obtain photos of similar cars to ensure as correct as possible in it's restoration by Sanjay Ghosh the largest restoration works here in Calcutta. I am posting some photos of this challenging project. Hope some of you can help put this queen back on the road as she should be. John Toronto/Calcutta
