38Buick 80C Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I can't wait 54 -'54's and a whole ton of '36-'38 for the 75th Anniv. This is gonna be an awesome show!!Thanks 54 Buick Highway for coming to Concord.By the way for all you above from the Mason Dixon line (like me, originally and most everyone else now living in Charlotte), it is pronounce Con-Cord... As in Auburn-CORD- Duesenberg. It's not Con-Curd, as in little Miss Muffet and her curds and wheyNor is it Con-Cud - as in cow's cud.Now I still don't pronounce Salisbury, NC (Friday's tour location) correctly apparently, so what do I know.

NCReatta Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Great job, Mr. Earl. I just have one question.. Does the '54 Buick Highway give out scholarships? :DBy the way for all you above from the Mason Dixon line (like me, originally and most everyone else now living in Charlotte), it is pronounce Con-Cord... As in Auburn-CORD- Duesenberg. It's not Con-Curd, as in little Miss Muffet and her curds and wheyNor is it Con-Cud - as in cow's cud.I've never known it to be called anything other than ConCORD. That's the way I've always said it! Oh, and you pronounce Salisbury just like this: Salisbury. Oh well.. perhaps you can't really hear how I'm pronouncing it over the internet like this.. Congrats, Mr. Earl, but I agree with buick840.. you're next few posts will be 5455 5456 etc.. perhaps you'd better use those up in hiding someplace (like the Reatta forum! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stealthbob Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 He just needs to make it rapid fire, late at night and know will see....So it looks like we have about 300 registered 54's, making that we need to get 18% of those to come out to the Nationals. Maybe we just have to get more registered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEarl Posted September 2, 2011 Author Share Posted September 2, 2011 (edited) Took the words right out of my mouth.You make me wish I had a 54, now I feel left out.and MrEarl would love to see y'all in one. and have you join us out on the 54 Buick Highway. They're out there. More today in this buyers market than I ever remember seeing. just check in on our 54 Buick Poster thread every once in a while. It's a thread that automatically picks up and posts '54 Buicks that come on the market through eBay, AutoTrader and previously Craigs List.54 Buicks on Craigslist and eBay In fact here is one that just popped up from the HAMB. A solid 2 door HT Super with rare factory air in Iowa. Not bad for the asking. Solid = $1,000, AC = 1,000, if it's near you = $1,000. Somebody go for it and drive it down to Shalotte next June. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=622582 Edited September 2, 2011 by MrEarl (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bob Call Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Speedo by The Cadillacs, released in 1955. Ironic? I'll bet that back the there was a group named The Buicks or The Roadmasters but they just never had a hit record. I still have my 45 of Speedo that I bought back then.

Thriller Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I'm not sure I can take the pressure...I was thinking about a comfortable drive in something with A/C and my '54 doesn't fit that bill. Besides, that would make two nationals in a row that the car I owned that attended was a '54...the others might get jealous.Step at a time right now...keeping busy...need to figure some things out before making a decision.
