Found! The Rare 1926 2 Door Touring

[dibarlaw]

In the AACA general Forum "1937 hd45" was looking for comments on a mystery chassis. A link to the HAMB discussion thread showed some suggestions one was a 1926 Buick and this photo showed up.

Thanks for starting this inquiry.  The photo of the 1926 Buick on the HAMB sight was the first car I was thinking about buying when we were "looking for a driver Buick" on the forum back in 2010-2011. When I responded to the craigslist ad out of Pittsburgh PA. the only 2 photos were of terrible low resolution and postage stamp size. A 1926 Buick Touring car..... $18,000. Not much more information. Other than it had a flipped manifold and that the interior was done in brown vinyl.  I did some quick research and found that Buick did not make a 2-Door touring until 1932. Even though the photos were terrible I could tell that it was a cut down 2 door Standard coach. I always wanted to see what the car really looked like.

Larry, that thing is awful looking.  Hideous is another word that comes to mind.

They always look wrong when a sedan is turned into a tourer.  I think it,s having the vertical windscreen and the sedan doors are higher than tourer doors

Not my cup of tea, nor the price, but someone did some work to create it.

Reminds me of this rare find.
