Does anyone have a 1953 56C convertible?

[BillMadden]

I am presently restoring a one owner '53 Model 56C convertible which will be osage cream over red leather when it is finished. Still need a few small parts. Would like to communicate with any and all '53 56C and 56R owners.

It's a 1953 Buick Super convertible. Bill's added a thread in the BCA forum, where I think he was intending this thread to be.

Fair enough, that is a 1937 Harley-Davidson 45 cubic inch motorcycle. The photo is the one my Dad bought new in the spring of 1937 one of 2,032 they built that year. It's taken me 10 years to find all the correct bits to build/restore a twin to it. My earliest automotive memory was leaving the Buick dealership in 1953 in Dad's new Buick 45R. I was almost 2 years 4 months old, Dad spent $2,446.88 for it. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
