RivNut Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Does anyone but me think that the '61 Invicta "bubbletop" is one of the best looking cars built by Buick (other divisions had the same style as well.) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

91vert Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 July 17th 1913 Model 10 Buick of 1910 vintage became the first car to climb Pike's Peak unassisted. The 165 cubic inch engine developed 22.5 H.P. and had a 2 speed planetary transmission. Not this car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the book "Seventy Years of Buick" shows photos of the modified Model 10 Buick also climbing the stairs of the summit house on Pike's Peak.

Anyone who has been up Pikes Peak, especially before it was paved all he way and select guardrails installed, can surely appreciate the butt puckering experience that must have been. Coming down could very well have been more adventurous than going up. The road conditions would have been atrocious in 1913 as even main roads down in the flat lands were not very good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been there, experienced that back in 1967 and again later in 1995. Truly scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivNut Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 When the ROA met in Colorado Springs in 2014, Linda and I went up Pikes Peak but we took the inclined railway. That was the same week as the hill climb so we couldn't drive up. I still have it on my bucket list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the wrong forum for that, so I tried to save face by praising the 54 in the background. Besides, it's not a DeSoto.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
