The Lucky Ghoul ('51 Roadmaster)

[Guest BrittanyGhoul]

This is my baby, 1951 Buick Roadmaster. Found by my boyfriend in the back of a junkyard he used to work in with a Honda sitting on top of it and just about ready to be sent to the crusher. He dragged it home, got it running, drove it as it was, then sold it to me on my birthday this last year and I've been makin' it prettier since.

So glad to see a car come from a wrecking yard to live again!

Neat car. Do you know any of its history from before the wrecking yard? The info on the hood about the engine makes me wonder if it was used for advertising or something. The red in the mustache bar really sets off the Buick Eight script.

A lot more progress has been made on that car than I've made on my similar '52 Roadmaster.

All I know is it was in the wrecking yard for about 25-30 years. And my boyfriend painted that on the hood then scratched it up so it would look like it was always there cause he wanted it to look like a racing car.
