Hey everyone. Well, just sold my beloved 63 Comet convertible (lots of extra parts available-5 litre F.I engine and AOD trans, bumpers, fenders, trim if anyone looking) and family wagon, a 1996 Buick Roadmaster Estate Woody with the corvette LT1 engine (yup-from the factory). Both cars provided lots of great memories, 8 years for Comet, and a couple of years of great camping trips with the Buick (5500 kms out east and back pulling a camper and no glitches-not bad for an Ontario car with 17 years of summer and winter use, and 188000 kms). Just bought a 61 Buick Bubbletop with 401 Nailhead, and a 65 Chrysler Imperial Couple with the 413 Wedge. My son says keep both-but I think the Chrysler may have to go-its loaded with ac, leather and power everything, but I was looking for a car thats as old as I am-and the 61' bubbletop has a classic look thats hard to beat. Looking forward to sprucing up interior of Buick, as paint/body was already done. The Imperial is a California car and truly anamazing time capsule-with mostly original rust free paint! Asking 6900.00 certified o.b.o if anyone is looking for an "IMPERIAL CRUISER"!
Welcome from N. Bay. My son and three others took the bosses buick roadmaster with that LT1 engine down to Bristol Tenn., and back , that car gave them 37 miles per gallon!!!!! Amazing!!
Welcome just wondering did the 61 come from a guy that owned a prowler or vet there was one up for sale a year or two ago and was a screaming deal. all three are great looking cars.

Welcome from the east end of the province, know what you mean about 94-96 B Body wagons, sold one last year with 340k and still drove and looked like new.
