Last ride of the year, today!! Only about 5 miles but boy do I love a 4-speed big block. Always have and I always will. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.
That's one beautiful car. I can't imagine having to put a car into storage and not be able to drive it all year long. So glad to be living in Central Florida. :TU:
Last ride of the year today ( with the top down!!!). 75 degrees and I am truly amazed (still) about a big block 4-speed drop top with my sweetie instructing me to slow down, slow down. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.:Brow:
I was crusing around Jackson Michigan early this week. Judging by all the looks I was getting it was to late in the season for a nice car to be on the streets. Didnt see any other classics out and about. Glad to be back in sunny Fla!
Happy & safe / prosperous 2013 to all here on the board. I have to work tomm. for 12 hours to make those megawatts but it is my chosen career and it helps to "feed" my Buick habit. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.
Did your car spend any time in Grand Blank Mi around 76 or 77?It looks just like GS owned by the family that move into our old house, absolutely gorgeous I loved it back then and still do
Pete, Funny you mention Grand Blanc. A neighbor of mine when I had a paper route (anyone remember those ?) had my "twin" car except an auto on the column if I remember right. And yes, They moved to the Flint area with the GS. Overgaard was their last name. Reason I remember is they are one of the few who gave me my well deserved Christmas bonus. Most of the homes on my route had 300 foot driveways and everyone wanted their paper by the front door. And this was with pedal power, no less !!! And yes, I love the color combo, especially with 3 pedals. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.:TU:
Went for the first "ride" of the year today. Only about 1 hour but top down, 4-speed big block and warm for Michigan. I have been working alot, 60 hours per week but Stage 1 therapy is the only way to go.Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.
I hope to be going to Gilmore's Buick B:laugh:ash on Sept. 7th with My Stage 1. Anyone else planning to attend? Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.
Now in heated storage for the Winter, along with my 72 GS 350 droptop. We got 17 inches of snow two days ago !:eek2: It should melt this weekend but it is November in Michigan. Regards, Upstaged in SW Michigan.
