BUICK RACER Posted August 29, 2005 Author Share Posted August 29, 2005 Lucky Guess! You can tell by the profile! And he wasn't even "The Old Guy" back then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest norb Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 I took many pictures of the First BCA meet.these first show the Buick ADM building & the factory in the background.I also have some of the bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Old Guy Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 I think that theblack and grey 41 46S in one picture is Dave Langdon's, and it just might be Jim Schilf's 49 wagon in the other. I cant remember the name of the guy that built the RV, but it was a VERY interesting machine. Both sets of front wheels turned, and I'll bet it was a "bear" to drive.

palbuick Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Joe's right the 49 woody wagon is Mine.I still have some more pictures, if any old timers want a look.Even have one of a very young Gary Klecka climbing a light pole to get a Buick Banner back in 1972 or 73.Those were great years.When Joe fired up that Buick Bug, everyone dropped what they were doing and had to watch and LISTEN, to this racer run.Jim Schilf palbuick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caGSxlr8 Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Here is a shot of the "bug" from a 1968 Buick GS/Electra commercial dated Sept 1967. See attachment.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUICK RACER Posted August 30, 2005 Author Share Posted August 30, 2005 What you guy's really need to do, is send these pictures to Robert Snowden for inclusion in The Buick Bugle! Some of these, well alot have never been seen before by BCA Members, cause way back when pictures were hard to print in the old Bugles. DO it, we all need to see what it was like, way back when! And so cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUICK RACER Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 Thanks for the compliment, Norb, but that's not quite true, I just wasn't in Flint then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
