Guest my3buicks Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) That car used to always show up in the flea market area at Hershey, I first saw it over 20 years ago. The owner claimed it was a heavy duty hauling package conversion. there is a large fender skirt that covers the wheel. it is on the unpictured side.It has been discussed on the forum in years past.

John Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 That car used to always show up in the flea market area at Hershey, I first saw it over 20 years ago. The owner claimed it was a heavy duty hauling package conversion. there is a large fender skirt that covers the wheel. it is on the unpictured side.It has been discussed on the forum in years past.I too remember seeing it years ago, probably Hershey. The craigslist ad indicates it is a "factory" car---anyone have any documentation on this conversion ???John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buick man Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Looks like it was a special built "Werks" project car for going up steep driveways while carrying a heavy load of Moon Shine ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rob McDonald Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 I first saw it over 20 years ago.MY3, c'mon, you gotta be pulling our legs. This is clearly a poorly-executed Photoshop fabrication, created to make Electra owners cringe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest my3buicks Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 I wish they would have provided a pic of the other side that has the skirt on it - I can assure you it stopped me on my tracks first time I saw it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1937-44 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Thanks for the pictures Keith, now I know what they are talking about. Somebody did a lot of work on it, I'm just not sure why. Carl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
