tblack Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Last of my Buicks, 1921 Model 44 Roadster, nice car runs great has given me lots of fun $18K firm and with it goes all of the last of my buick parts. Tons of Parts. I'm advertising locally as well so If you want 1 nice car to do your thing this is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibarlaw Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Sad to see you selling the last of all the nice Buicks you had. I know that once the downsizing begins many treasures need to go. Hope you will continue to comment on the Buick Forum as your experience has been of great value to me as well as others. I still wish I had taken advantage of the 1923 Model 49 you offered. But I probably have less space here than what you have downsized to. So if one car comes in, one must go. Also since I got "the diver Buick"in 2011 what ever spare parts that were needed do accumulate. We as always, wish these cars to go to a "Buick loving home" to be cared for and enjoyed as you did.

tblack Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 Larry ...thanks for the kind words....Amongst the tons of Parts I think there are 2 Starter Generators that fit your 1925. This would look good in your garage and I believe it originally came from your state of Pa. If it does not sell I'll enjoy it another year. I sold the 1923 model 49 locally so I see it often when the new owner is out riding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tblack Posted February 1, 2016 Author Share Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) New Price $17500...but I will entertain price offers without the parts. I have had interest locally but those offering were not interested in the parts their offers were a bit light and there intentions (hot rodders I think) were not keeping it stock. If not sold by 3/1/2016 I'm pulling it off the market and enjoying it another year. Edited February 1, 2016 by tblack (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_S_in_Penna Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) Tom, I think this would look good in Larry's garage!That's Larry as in Posting #2. Post-1915 cars, up to the late 1920's, have much less of a following these days. That's regrettable, but don't feelbad if buyers don't flock to it by the artificial March 1 deadline.I hope any buyer will not only appreciate it, but keep it in goodrunning order and not let it languish as a stationary object. Have you considered listing it on the Horseless Carriage Clubwebsite, www.hcca.org? Your car will get a lot of exposurethere, as cars through the 1920's have their most dedicated followers on that website. Also, www.prewarcar.com could beuseful. All the best to you in your sale.

dibarlaw Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Yes John I agree that it would look good in my garage. And at our 8th annual Mason-Dixon car show. But Tom has already tried to give me a break on the other cars he had. As stated in my post. One in one out. Thus spoke SWMBO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tblack Posted February 2, 2016 Author Share Posted February 2, 2016 John...no I never tried the other sites , I'll take a look Larry...one in one out is a good rule which I have broken again this winter as I picked up a 1946 GMC pick up EC 102. I need something to make the weekly dump run!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_S_in_Penna Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) Trying to unite a car with a new owner here: Larry, garages in our area can rent for $50 to $60 a month.That might solve your storage problem! Nice cars from theearly '20's don't come up for sale all that often--and theyaren't often seen at shows. Imagine the local Buick showwith a nice 1921 gracing the show-field! And Tom, I think you'll like the Horseless Carriage Clubfor-sale web page. The pictures on the website are large,so the cars are very visible, and there are onlyabout three dozen cars for sale at a time. So your car will be noticed! In 2010, I was looking for an interesting pre-war car myself.I found the car that is pictured with my name; but being a Buick fan,I think Tom's roadster could have filled the bill!

rusty12 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 That's a great looking roadster and seems to be priced very fair. I am sure it will find a new owner soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tblack Posted February 12, 2016 Author Share Posted February 12, 2016 That's a great looking roadster and seems to be priced very fair. I am sure it will find a new owner soon! Thanks Rusty...but it wont go to the local guy that wants to "update" it with a nailhead!! I sold my 23 Franklin to a guy years ago and it was too tall for his garage but said he wanted anyway. I gave him his money back. These cars should stay as original as possible and not be left out in the elements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEarl Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Can't buy, but man I love this sweet lil Roadster. Got any more pictures of it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tblack Posted February 23, 2016 Author Share Posted February 23, 2016 Mr Earl....sweet it is but not small as it is a model 44 6 cylinder.....I had a 22 Buick McLaughlin Roadster model 34 4 cylinder some years back and it was kind of tight. Attached is an in progress picture of the 44 stripped down to appreaciate the overall size and a picture of the smaller model 34. The 44 is still on the market a couple of more weeks but then I will get out of winter mouthballs for another year. I'll make it available again in the fall. The model 34 is somewhere in europe the last I knew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John_S_in_Penna Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Tom, with such an enjoyable car,you didn't REALLY want it to leave, did you? Most people sell during the car season,when the demand may be greater.Yes, car season is on its way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_S_in_Penna Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 ...virtualy no winter in the Northeast this year... ---Except for those of us who got 28 to 38 inches of snow all at once!Walking in that (without snowshoes) was a challenge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tblack Posted April 23, 2016 Author Share Posted April 23, 2016 SOLD....I will be driving it up to new home in Plattsburg NY near the Canadian border. New owner was a bit overwhelmed with the literal tons of parts that went with it so when all is final and he is agreeable there should be lots of 21 and 22 parts available from him. That is the last of my Buicks been fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEarl Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Tom, hope it went to a good home and that we see it here again on the forum some day. I really liked that lil "big" Roadster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibarlaw Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Tom: Congratulations. It is nice that the car will still be near by. I remember when we went to look at the our 1925 at Ogdensburg NY. and looking across the river and seeing Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
