It was at the 2022 Nationals. I'm trying to use only photos I took so I don't have issues with copyrights.

Fair application of the law is being able to face one's accusers, which is impossible in this instance. Yes, there is a human "reviewer" but they don't have to show up in court.

I've started a page within the BCA site for the Heartland Region. It's in its infancy as I've forgotten 99% of what I remember of Wordpress, but we'll get there eventually. Email me your comments through the page or here. https://heartland.buickclub.org/

If it's cheaper to plead guilty by mail (whether you are or not) than it is to argue your position in court, then it's a money grab, not a fair application of the law. The fees to appear are onerous and are collected up front, regardless of the outcome.

I assumed that was the keyhole.

Probably a stupid question, but where are the exterior door handles?

Practice, practice, practice.

The season is basically the same here in Chicagoland. I don't drive mine after the first salting of the roads in the winter, or until after a couple good rains in the Spring. But if the weather is nice in February I'll drive around. The semi-organized shows usually start in mid-April, but a lot of planners are a little cautious because people avoid the rain, so there is no point in planning something that doesn't have a good chance of good attendance. And for those who are in Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska and Kansas, I maintain a google calendar of all the events I know about. You can access it by going to http:/www.calendar.google.com and then search "Heartland Region Car Shows and Cruise Nights" and you'll have access to it. It also has AACA, BCA and ROA events around the country.

Second that! It would be easier for them to just sit in their own garage for the same result.

If I had the $$ space and time ...

I've been thru the ads already. No luck yet but not everyone has responded, either. And I'm not handy, nor do I have a place to work, so it's better I find a pro to do it for me.

My 1973 grille is materially fine, but the finish is chipped and warn. Is there a way to refinish it? What is that process called so I can ask the right question. Or do I just need to find a replacement? Same question for the trim around the tail lights. There's a metal trim ring, and that horizontal center bit in the attached photo. It doesn't show there, but both lights need restoration.

I would imagine that the heat, etc., isn't ideal for any type of coating. As for polyurethane coatings, mine is about 4 years old, and is holding up very well.

As the title says, need the right outside mirror (no remote cable, etc. needed) for a 1973 Buick Riviera. Must be in top condition.

My lone vintage is not unique, nor a show-stopper. But I don't care. I go to shows for the fun, the education, the camaraderie, etc. I'd probably feel differently if I were bringing something truly unique. Modifications are so personal in many cases I doubt that there will ever be a consensus of what is the "best" modifications on a car.
