Bloo Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) That's a 39 Buick. Edited March 20, 2023 by Bloo (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donb501 Posted March 20, 2023 Author Share Posted March 20, 2023 Wow - thanks so much! They were married Aug. 27, 1938 so I wonder if '39s were available then. Or maybe it wasn't their honeymoon after all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloo Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Probably yes! The model year starts early in the previous year. August is a bit early but possible. If so, it would have been brand spanking new, and one of the first ones on the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolly_John Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 I'm thinking later than their honeymoon, Don. The fit at the top of the driver's side grille section is not "factory", indicating the possibility of some prior repaired damage. I.E. the BUICK wasn't factory-fresh.
