  1. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">A most excellent find! Being in BC, I wonder whether it might be a McLaughlin Buick - it will be noted on the hub caps</div></div> As a matter of fact, I just found one (The only remaining one)of the hubcaps, and it indeed is a McLaughlin Buick <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">It sounds like with the building falling down around it, it may be rather rough.</div></div> Rough looks to be an understatment. it <span style="text-decoration: underline">was</span> under shelter, but then the roof over it disintigrated, and it is slowly rotting into the ground. The wood frame is toast. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">You're looking for a small plate roughly 1/2 inch wide by 3 inches long, and probably mounted under the right front fender. It's hard to see!</div></div> The right side of the car is right against the wall, so i would need to move it to find it. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">The engine number will be stamped on the engine</div></div> Okay. Now that I found it, that engine is not the one that went in there. While I know the engine is for a Buick, The firewall on the engine (The only part of the body still there. It's used as a fuel tank mount) is also there, and indicates the engine is for a 1929 26S. The radiator is long gone I might try to fix it up. It would make a interesting woodworking/metalworking project...
  2. We bought an old farm in southeasten British Columbia last year, and in one of the old sheds (About to fall over) is the remains of an old buick 4-door sedan This must have been one of those sheds in which object "went to die", as pieces of just about everything (Including the buick) is in there, and I am sure there are parts for at least two Ford model A trucks in there... I think the buick is a late 1920's as pictures of restored 1920's buicks closly resemble this one. I unfortuately do not have pictures yet, but I will supply the model and Serial numbers on the firewall: Model:29 27 Serial: 155712 My questions would be: What is the year of this car? What are the specs on this car? Is there a serial on the engine itself? (I ask this because we beleive the engine for this guy might be in a junk pile on the edge of the property. And finally, a bit of an OT question: Where would a serial be on the Ford model A's? Thank you for responding Chris
