Hi again Michael. Please call me. About these wire wheels. 780 819 7404. It’s to hard to message back and forth. Thanks.

Wood wheels I guess. Darn.

I find it’s strange how the front hubs use 12 bolts through the brake drum to the hub and the back only uses 6. As a machinist I would say 12 bolts would be better than 6.

Is anyone out there collecting wire wheels and hubs for 27/28 Buick standard or master. I need one more rear hub to complete my 28 master set. I have one 21” wire wheel and front hub for a standard that I won’t use. Someone must have some of these parts. Thanks Bob 780 819 7404

Hi Fred. Bob Pilkie here in Edmonton Alberta. I have a 28 Buick master roadster. I’m putting Buick buffalo wire wheels on it. I still need one more rear buffalo pin drive hub. I also could use two master rear axels with real good splines and tapper key way and thread. 780 819 7404. bobpilkietransport@hotmail.com Can you text or email me some pictures of what you still have thanks Bob

Hi Bob here. Does your car have wood wheels or wire wheels. I have a 28 master roadster and I am putting buffalo wire wheels on it.

Hi Micheal. Bob here again in Edmonton Alberta Canada. I just found one more Buick buffalo wire wheel 21” and front hub with 12” brake drum. This is for a Buick standard. What is your car ? A standard or master. Mine is a master. Master hubs brake drums and wheels are different than standard. Please text or email me some pictures of what you have. 780 819 7404. bobpilkietransport@hotmail.com

Somewhere someone will have one in there box of leftover parts. Do you still have old cars. And your Buick ? I have a 31 Buick 8-91 and a 16 Buick D 45. And just recently bought a 28 master roadster.

Love to talk to the owner of all these parts. How could I find an email or phone #. Never know what he might have for 28 buick wire wheel parts thanks Bob 780 819 7404

Hi again John. Bob here. I just realized reading more of your postings that you are talking about Tony Bult. I have been talking with him quit a bit. Real nice guy and his wife Joyce. Sad he has health problems now. He has some spare 28 Buick/buffalo wire wheel parts one front hub and some of the caps and lock nuts etc. I’d like to buy them from him but his memory and health troubles are sadly stopping him from digging up these parts and shipping them to me. Any chance you live near him. I’d love to go meet him but I’m up in Edmonton Alberta. Two long days drive away. He has lots of parts he wants to sell now. If there is anyway you can help me please call me. Thanks Bob 780 819 7404.

Hi John. Bob Pilkie here. I am reading your posting here about your friend building a 29 speedster with 28 Buick wire wheels. I’m looking for one more rear hub for my 28 Buick/buffalo wire wheels. Any chance your friend may have some extra hub parts. I’d like to talk to him please and thanks. Bob 780 819 7404.

Hi Bob here in Edmonton Alberta I see your old add here. I have a 28 Buick and I’m putting wire wheels on it. I need one more rear hub. Any chance you have extra parts.

I don’t recognize those disk wheels but they are cool. I’d love to look in that yard. I need one rear hub for 28 Buick wire wheels. Just can’t find one.

I wonder if in this persons collection of Buick parts there might be a rear hub for a 28 Buick master wire wheel. How owns these parts. I’d like to talk to them please. Thanks Bob 780 819 7404

Hi Bob here just looking at all the old adds. Did you take these wheels off a car to put wire wheels on ? I’m looking for one rear Buick / buffalo wire wheel hub for my 28 master. I just keep asking around. Someone must have some of these hub parts. Thanks Bob 780 819 7404

I see this is an old add . Did someone save it. I’m trying to find one rear hub for a 28 master.

Hi Bob here is this car still for sale.

Hi Fred. Bob Pilkie here in Edmonton Alberta I see you seem to have a lot of parts for 28 Buicks. Any chance you have Buick / buffalo wire wheel parts. ( back hubs). Or know someone how might. 780 819 7404. I need one more rear hub for my 28 master roadster. Thanks

Hi bubba. Any chance this chassis is still around. I need 28 Buick buffalo wire wheel rear hubs. 780 819 7404

Yes Tony does have wheels and hubs for a 29 Buick. I talked to him not a few weeks ago. I’m looking for one wire wheel rear hub for a 28 master.

Hi Bob here in Edmonton Alberta Canada. I am collecting parts for my 28 Buick master roadster. I have almost everything now to convert to Buick / buffalo wire wheels. I need one more rear main outer hub. I have two inner rear hub pcs that kinda fit. I’m sure they are buffalo but not for a 28 Buick. Maybe a different year or make of car. What make are the wire wheels for 29 Buicks. Bob 780 819 7404

Hi Bob Pilkie here in Edmonton Alberta. I have a 1916 Buick D45. It has 26” wheels. I put a few new tires on it 34x4 but wish I would have put 36 x5. They do look much better. And would ride a bit better.

Does that car have 12” or 14” brake drums. 14” is master. I see a gap between the outer hub and inner hub/ brake drum plate. With two big screw drivers you can’t pry it out not pushing on the brake drum. The outer hub might be stuck on the bearing or the axel spline in the diff is worn bad and gets stuck to the spider gear. I have one axel that has a real bad spline. Will have to replace.

That hub and axel should come out as one pc. That rear axel on the buck master is a floating axel. Should just pry out. Might be stuck on the bearing.

Hi again that’s the hub I’m looking for too. It’s a two pc hub. The main outer hub and another pc that bolts to the brake drum and kinda sandwiches the bearing. I will machine the inner pcs. I do have one rear hub. And I bought modern sealed bearings. What car do you have. A master has 14 “ brake drums and a standard has smaller 12” drums. The rear hubs are different too.
