The Bubbletop in PHR
 

Did you guys see Jeff's Buick in the latest PHR? What a great action shot. :D

Congrats, Jeff! :thumbsup:

Awesome Jeff. Cool car, cool dude.

Congrats, Jeff! How 'bout a pic???

Here's a low res version pic. I was taking the pics from Reckley's SUV... That's Brent (Ricochet) in the passenger seat and Jody (Camcojb) in the back seat. If I had known one of the pics was going to be used in a magazine, I would have done a lot better job in taking the picture(s).

I think I took some video on this stretch of road, too. It just looks so damn nice rolling down the road.

I just got mine. car looks sweet! where were you guys at?

I'm not sure. lol It was somewhere between Stielow's place and Woodward Avenue.

I know we were driving east. lol

That is too sweet. Pivot man, another home run on the automobile.

not bad for an original paint car! :yes: It even has the date coded original plug wires. Runs and looks great, and garnered a LOT of attention on Woodward. :thumbsup:

Jody

I just love the nose of those cars. The best front fender line ever!

Congratulations man!

Congrats Jeff. Car looks great. :thumbsup:

That is one of my favorite cars. Love it Jeff!!!! :thumbsup:

Congrats Jeff! :thumbsup: That car has one of the most striking side profiles I've ever seen, not surprised to see it get some ink.

I second that!! I also love the front bumper.

That is a sweet looking car for sure. What's Jody doing in the back seat? :wow:

Jeff, are you sure it has the original spark plug wires? What about that thermostat?:rofl: lookin sweet man!:cheers:

Do both horns still work? :lol: :D

Congrats Jeff, that car is a gem. :thumbsup:

I forgot to blur that out, it's pretty much impossible to tell in print though.. lol

Nice shot except for the pole growing out of the roof ;)

Oh, and sweet ride!

I see the media whore is at it again...LOL!! Congrats Jeff :thumbsup: For those who haven't seen the car in person..It is an awesome car..46K orig miles. Like said..all original down the the plug wires. Well minus the bags, wheels and brakes. Oh - and the air bag behind the wheel!! :rofl:

Brent

That's the original paint ? No one can argue that Detroit didn't make some sweet rides... That Buford is awesome.

wow i was looking threw it at work and fell in love with the car not knowing it belonged to someone here..sweet sweet ride..gotta start cruising the local barns around me find one sitting..

Scott, that is so cool. I'm going to have to go out and get that issue. What fun day that was. Can't wait until Woodward this year. Maybe we can take some pics of a certain red and white camaro. :unibrow:

Congrats man. Awsome ride :thumbsup: .

great car I've always had a soft spot for buicks my father still works for buick. It's been almost 48 years. 67 skylark is one of my favorites also

I just received my copy of PHR. Darn Jeff you have way with making great looking cars. Being your 69 Camaro and now finding out of this world ride bubbletop. Guys you need to see the car to appreciate it. Yes it's that nice.

Who took the photo? Who are the two ugly guys in the car with you? I did notice the photo was taken on Maple Rd. in Birmingham, My old neighborhood.

Thanks guys...I appreciate it...Scott gets the credit for taking a very cool picture, and Dupont and Jody are enjoying the fine Michigan weather...Yes, taken coming from Stielows house towards Woodward....Thanks to S. Rupp for pimping the barge.....D-Note!

:lateral: :woot:

It had to be one of my fave rides in that issue...nice job! :thumbsup:

Hey jeff - did you get my PM?

Congrats dude,thats one hot ride,i love Buicks!!:thumbsup:

Detroit / Flint
 

DETROIT DIDEN'T MAKE THAT BUICK BUBBLE TOP!
IT WAS BUILT IN FLINT TOWN !!!

I just bought this car.....
 

So there is a bit of a story to me and this car. When Jeff had it for sale back in 2007 I really wanted to buy it. Two things stood in the way. An Australian to US fx rate of only 87 cents and the price Jeff was asking. It would have been over $50K landed at my door which was more than I could fund (while pooring way way to much cash into my Camaro).

Oh and the wife wasn't a fan

Anyway since then I've regretted it. It was heard telling Jeff the sales wasn't going ahead with me

It came back up on ebay a few months ago with a BIN of $30K watched it and it bid up to $27K

Then 4 weeks ago went up again no reserve.

It's had 3,000 miles added in 5 years

I got it for $20K (fx 97 cents)

It's currently in LA awaiting shipping to Australia.

It will become my daily driver.

Going to drop a Howell or AFI fuel injection on it, March serp kit, new rad and thermos, general tidy up of fluids, bushes and bearings etc then drive it

I drive 100 miles round trip to work and back every single day. I know a car of this vintage in such pristine condition probably shouldn't be a daily...but I don't buy / build these cars to sit in the garage....

Still one of my fav shots of this car....(from 2007)

Congrats :cheers: That is one nice daily driver for sure :yes:
