Hello. I'm here to learn, I'm here to share, I'm here because (like most of you) I love my car.

 

Too short on an introduction. Whats your ride? where are you located, area, stace?

 

Welcome aboard

Don't tell me ya got a Buick

 

Welcome to CO.

 

Welcome to our site!! These guys will be happy to help you out with any questions!! What kind of car do you have?? Got any pics you can post?? We like to look!

 

Welcome to the site.

 

WOW! A place where people actually want to listen to you about your car!

My passion is a 1991 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon. It's a base model, i.e., someone forgot to put all of the bells and whistles on it at build.

305, not the LT1.

This car was owned by a Buick Employee who bought it and parked it until his Florida excursion each year. He would drive it in Florida for a few months and return to Michigan in the spring. It was parked in his garage until his next trip south. Less than 6000 miles per year were put on this car!

A co-worker purchased the car from him then gave it to his daughter to drive *GASP!!!* Well, a near flawless car is now a great looking car for its age. Very little damage except for the paint ruboff on the Right tail light and a dimple in the trim. The not so bad ... a divot in the front seat from 106,000 miles of *** pushing down in it. The interior is flawless.

Things I want to do:

Replace the weather stripping all around (I'm big on quiet)
Install the features (toys) such as Climate Control, Delco CD, Power Seats & change the velour seats to leather.

No Smoke, No Leaks, 1 Error.

I've owned her for a month and have had 4 offers to buy. (2 kids, an older gentleman and a dealer in Livonia, MI). Something very special would have to come along to get me to do that.

I'm taking a beating on this comrades! It's a barrage of Clark Grisold jabs and jeers. But if Clark Griswold can lure Christy Brinkley into a pool driving that crapper he had ....

Still asking myself ... "how did I get this car, it's too good to be true!"

 

My coworkers frequently refer to my 83 CC as Griswold or Family Truckster.

We had a snowstorm here several years back and I drove it to work with studded snowtires. I had gotten to within 3 miles of the plant and managed to go skating off into a field. Got out and came on in, though I could tell it was driving wonky (bent a tierod). I didn't say a word about what had happened.

Rest of the crew came in and was talking about how somebody had gone off into that field, and one of them had done the same thing in a 4WD Mitsubishi truck. They were wondering who the first one was and when I finally owned up, one of them immediately said Griswolds taking off out thru the desert. So Griswold it was for the rest of that winter. Some of them will bring it up now.

 

Hey Roadmonster.

Buhog name and Avatar?
Talk about adding insult to injury.


There goes the neighborhood.

 

.....WOW! A place where people actually want to listen to you about your car!


We like to listen and talk about cars... well, the guys talk about cars! I'm here for the entertainment and to ask "girl" questions!!!! LOL!! We talk about food a lot too, right Jamesbo??


Redgoat..... You are funny!!! Buhog!

 

Please indulge a guy his master plan ...

I'm an avid golfer as well. There's a pretty good golfer out there that just vacated the job at Buick Golf. Maybe if I drive this, er, Buhog, into the right Country Club I could interview for the job!

Did someone mention food?

 

Don't let Bluevista get to ya.

My Ma had a Deuce and a quarter [Electra 225]

Blue, I like this guy [don't know what he was smoking during the master planning] but I like him.

My no good Brother in law jes wrapped one just like yours around a tree. [Same color even] I think he got "over searved" at the dud suds joint, What a waste.

I've always liked Granny Sports also.

As aside note.


IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN

All that GM A body "nothing larger than a 400 ci motor" is a pseudo myth. Wasn't the Nailhead really a 401

 

Hey Jamesbo... what's for supper???

 

I had forgotten the rivalry a wife can develop with a man's love for his automobile.

Ever look a woman in the eyes and say, "Be still my idling throttle"? Usually good for a couple of hours lone time.

 

...... "Be still my idling throttle"?

I know that wouldn't work with Larry!!! LOL!!

 

In honor of Mr Olds Minutia [Joe P.] We're having

Antipasto Salad

Lettuce, quartered roma tomatoes, black and green olives, mozzarella, provolone, celery sticks , sliced and rolled proscituto, soprassata, finocchiona, Some pepperoncini and roasted red peppers, drizzled with EVOO and Balsamic Vinegar and sprinkled with Parmigiano reggiano

And of course [just to keep you from showing up] ANCHOIVES

Toasted Garlic bread side.

And a couple of Flagons of Pinot Grigio

 

What, no hint of madagascar?

A ring of pickled balogna and a 6 pack of beer is a 7 course dinner for this palette.

 

Like the lady said when she kissed the cow, "It's all a mater of taste"

Like pickeled bologna [ a friend from upper Michigan used to get some really good stuff shipped down] but I like fried bologna sandwich better.

Bye the bye http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmPRHJd3uHI

It's "Cause Oscar Mayer has a way with B-O-L-O-G-N-A"

 

I get it now...Golf.

I guess if you dog out Tiger and like beer and pickled bologna you can't be all bad.

Welcome.

Beware of the mother of "The Prettiest One".

Talk about ruining the neighborhood.

 

Say Blue, ( a guy from Ohio with BLUE in his alias!!!),

Maybe you can tell me what BOC Group means.

 

I thought it was BPOE

 

My shop teacher was missing some fingers. That in itself is not funny.

His nickname at the Elks was "Lefty". That's funny!

 

.....Beware of the mother of "The Prettiest One".

Excuse me, sir??? I'm the best thing that's happened to the neighborhood!!!

What the heck is pickled bologna??? Another one of those "certain ethnic" foods?



It's "Cause Oscar Mayer has a way with B-O-L-O-G-N-A"



Jamesbo.... It was nice to see that old commercial! Now a days seems like all the commercials are about cell phones or computers. Or cars - that all look the same!

 

I hadn't thought about a fried bologna sandwich in a long while; raised on that and red beans/cornbread/onions (not necessairly at the same time - we may not have had much money, but we always had red beans!). Gonn'a go to the store today and get the fixin's for lunchtime!!!!

 

Dear Cuteassgal,

Yes, it is certain ethnic food. It's certainly hillbilly dining at it's finest.

A side of Ritz crackers and colbyjack sharp. * insert hee haw characters*

Great fuel for The Dutch Oven or There's a bat in the bedroom festivities.

 

I like summer sausage, crackers and any kind of cheese with em, LOL!!!!

I like the way you changed my name, there Beastmaster! LOL!!

 

1. Did I tell you my nickname is Summer?
2. Sorry, spellchecker malfunction???

 

Nah... you neglected to inform us of your nickname!! You're just fittin right in on our site, now aren't you? LOL!

 

Wow four offers to buy the Buick, take one of them up on it and buy a nice Oldsmobile. Andy

 

http://www.wral.com/news/news_briefs/story/6936084/

Y'all ain't got none-a that brand, do ya?

 

Actually Andy, this Roady just kind of fell into my lap.

The car I missed out on was an Omega with original V8. $700 on Craig's in Detroit. Typical Michigan rust bucket, just too much to recover. But she ran real nice.

 

I have to find a place to fit in. My wife, Autumn, and I argue too much.

She insists Autumn comes before Summer.

What kind of thinking is that?

 

OK Andy .... here's one that has my eye. Looks like a lot of work but it's so darned hard not to want a 50's 2 door.

http://detroit.craigslist.org/wyn/cto/1540704239.html

So I'll toss this out there, is this guy in touch with reality or is he asking too much?

 

OK, the plan has paid off! I submitted my new logo idea for Buick/Nike Golf, and I have the winner!

 

Isn't the 91 olds wagon pretty much the same, down to the {delete} engine ..?

 

The Olds is way cooler and much better looking, especially the front end.
Oldsmobiles and their owners have much more class too.

 

How Studebakeresque of you to say so!

Who said "chevelry" is dead???

 

Yea, this was part of the one size fits all thinking by GM.

They are disappearing quickly now, Ca$h for Clunkers filled the salvage yards with them. If you are seeking parts for these cars now there are plenty and inexpensive for the time being.

 

Chevelry - That part of your car which shares an OEM part number with a Caprice Classic.
