ROD W Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Been looking for a Buick roadster for a number of years. Finally acquired one. It has taken two months to organise all the paperworkto import into Australia, and another month for shipping. It is now half way across the Pacific, on its way to Taiwan, where it will change ships. My 1920 sedan has right hand steering, and right hand gears and hand brake. Now I,ll have to get used to left hand steering andcentre gears and hand brake. Hopefully the car doesn,t move in the container. But it looks like they have strapped it down pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jscheib Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Congratulations on the new purchase. I guess it could be a problem to remember which car you are driving, as they are the same year. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Shaw Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Rod, Is this car from Portland Oregon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROD W Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 Yes thats the one Mark. Are you familiar with the car. They said the clutch was rebuilt, but still grabbing and difficult to change gears. It might just need some driving to settle it in. Will have to wait and see.

Mark Shaw Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Rod, Yes, it was at our All Buick Show last year. The local Buick dealer did the mechanical repairs for that car. Did you get the paperwork for what they did? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
