Vintageben Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 I'm thinking Buick mid 1920's I would have a closer look at it if it's cheap enough its worth pursuing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibarlaw Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 (edited) Looks to be a 1927 Buick Master, Country Club coupe. The duct tape holding things together looks rather ominous. Hundreds of hours of wood fabrication....With what needs to be done it should be almost at a giveaway price to be considered. IMO.

dibarlaw Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Here is what a very original, low mileage1927-54 sport roadster looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
46 woodie Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 It all depends on the asking price. The "buckle" in the hood scares me. As mentioned it's a fairly rare car, so not too many parts are available. As dibar mentions, the wood structure in this car will cost a bundle to replace. It's not like a Model A where wood kits are available. Don't let your heart over rule your wallet. If you can get the car fairly cheap then you might want to pursue it. The last thing you want is to get over your head and give up on the project. It all comes down to time and money and what the finished product will be.

Cabnut Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Barring sheet metal repair, to re-wood this body with sheet metal re-installed ready to paint would be $20000 to $25000. Any rust repair required would be extra and based on extent of work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
