dei Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Looks to me like it might be a 1957 Buick with those three chrome hash bars before the rear wheel. Maybe a 2 door with the rear view mirror caught in the far left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buicknutty Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Looks like a '57 to me as well. The colour, I think it was called "Garnet Red", but it is very copper looking, and the painted strip in the body side moulding tell me its' a '57. Folks with more knowledge about '57's might be able verify my info. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Our67Rivi Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 (edited) Yes, the car in post 2382 is a beautiful 1957 Buick Roadmaster 2 door hardtop. I believe the color is called Bittersweet, a early '57 color. It is owned by a member of our BCA Chapter, "Buick Club of the Redwoods". The young lady is one of the owners granddaughters. The picture was taken at the annual Peggy Sue Car Show cruise. The grandkids get a kick out of riding in grandpa's car during the cruises.

He has part of his collection on display in a recently built garage. We were over there last year and he went over the collection and the evolution of Manitoba license plates. The plates grew in size as the number of characters increased. It was neat to see. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TxBuicks Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 My co-worker sent me this picture of her and her older brother posing behind her parent's Buick wagon. It looks like an early 1970's clamshell wagon to me. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
