Some good photos of a reasonably good looking car.

Thanks David. I was able to download all the photos for my reference files. Love the original upholstery.

Just a bit of input from members of the Forum.  If you wanted to use this car regularly on club runs, the front seat would not last much longer. As it is the original leather, what would you do.  This car has been in the Victorian  Buick Club for many years.

I reckon a good motor trimmer could repair it with distressed leather to make it look reasonably good / presentable provided the original stuff it not too dry and brittle when it comes to stitching.   There's an opportunity to replace broken and sagged springs plus padding to get quite a few more years out of it.

I like those wire wheels too! 

What is that on the front of the running board?

Mark,

 

It is a two stage mechanical tyre pump. A common accessory of the day. They can be found on many cars.
