Congratulations to the Hawkeye Chapter for your work in getting the Blackhawk! It is a car that Buick should build ,but unfortunately won't. Harold( who is a member of the Buicktown Chapter) probably knows as much about the Blackhawk as the men who built it, and will show it well. He might even give you a ride if he has time.
