Recent outing with the Aqua Zephyr at the Fayetteville NC Crown Coliseum Complex.

Didn't someone recently post that they were looking for a 96? Or was that a 97 they were looking for?

I hope everyone was bundled up nice and warm!

The Aqua Zephyr in downtown Creedmoor, NC for a civil rights documentary film shoot. This was a 192 mile round trip for the ol' girl. @NC-car-guyhad his 1957 Special there also.

With @NC-car-guy & Dean T. in Creedmoor, NC for a documentary film shoot. Way too early in the morning

Kits still available.

A recent customer who bought my 68-70 trunk mat kit sent me some pictures of the installed mats in his 1969 Riviera. Judge for yourself how my kit looks installed. (I did not supply the trunk side boards).

We've averaged about 1500 miles a year but this year will be a lot lower.

I came VERY close doing the same thing last March.

Paul, I sent you a message. Diamond Back Tires in Conway, South Carolina sells these tires. They are listed in their "Cadillac" tire section. I believe they only list one of two tire sizes for this style of WW, but you can get almost any tire size they sell with these stripes. I recommend calling them and talking with a salesman if you have a specific tire size requirement. My tires are 235/75-15. So they are a little larger in diameter than stock. My car runs about 10mph faster that what the speedo reads in the 50-70 mph range. I hope this helps.

I used a front suspension kit from P-S-T for my 68 Riv. This kit had brake reaction rod rubber bushings for a 69-70 Riviera. I ended up buying a TRW bushing kit for the 68 BRR. P-S-T refunded me the amount I paid for the TRW kit. I bought a NORS center link for the car from a seller on Ebay. My two cents worth...

1910 Buick Model 14 on display at a 1973 Antique Automobile Club of America car show, possibly in Rhode Island. The AACA window sheet lists the owner as "O. Johnson" and the model as "1910 Buick". The license plate is a Rhode Island "Antique" plate #23(?). Does anyone remember Mr. or Ms. O Johnson and this 1910 Buick Model 14? Any idea where it might be today? Image is from an AUG73 process dated Kodachrome slide in my personal collection of classic cars slides.

I bought my 68 430 radiator hoses from oldbuickparts.com (CARS)

One word: eBay

Two images from two separate Kodachrome Stereo Transparencies. An elderly couple standing proudly next to their 1955 Buick Special. The second picture shows a partial view of a red 1950 Buick parked behind the black Special. Images are from an 1950's Kodachrome stereo transparency slides in my personal collection.

1955 Buick Roadmaster in a local parade? Image from an undated 1950's Kodachrome slide in my personal collection. The picture is slightly out of focus. I can't make out what the sign in the back window says. Notice the two way radio antenna on the driver-side rear fender.

1950s Kodachrome slide image of a 1951 Buick Special Tourback Sedan in the center and a 1951 Chevrolet Fleetline on the left. This pictures exact date and location is unknown. One soldier has an 8th Army shoulder patch. The first US Army 4 Star General officer in command of 8th Army in Korea was GEN James Van Fleet (14 April 1951 to 11 February 1953). Image from an undated 1950's Kodachrome slide in my personal collection.
