LCK81403 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Does anyone know what happened to the 1921 Lorraine that was built by David Dunbar Buick after he left Buick autos? I understand that only one '21 Lorraine was built, hence I am wondering what happened to the car. I have compared the '21 Lorraine with a '21 Buick and notice that the fenders are generally similar, and the overall appearance of the Lorraine was generally similar to comparable cars at that time. It doesn't appear that the Lorraine broke any new design boundaries. But it is a unique on-off car based on David Buick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCK81403 Posted January 22, 2020 Author Share Posted January 22, 2020 Ben, I came across the Lorraine info on this web site: http://www.earlyamericanautomobiles.com/americanautomobiles7a.htm It is a sad story of David Dunbar Buick starting Buick Mfg. Co in 1902 and then left the company in 1908, then died broke in 1929. Anyway, I was wondering what happened to the one-off Lorraine car because it is a unique piece of history. Thank you for following up on this. One day I would like to take a look at that Lorraine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
