    1. Sold my all steel 32 Ford coupe last month (that I've owned for 6 years) to some chick in England.

    2. Bought a sweet 53 Buick 'vert this month.

    3. Reason: Hazel ! :)

    I love that 32, but I was getting a little bored with it, plus I've always wanted (and never had) a convertible.

    I've got big plans for the Buick (aside from carting around babies), but it's a running driver right now, so I plan on working on it on the fly.

    Go ahead and tell me what a 'tard I am, but I'm happy with my new 'vert and my new squirt (Hazel).

    Hazel is a real cl***ic and nothing is more traditional that a little girl.
    Deuces are rare, but there is only ONE of her.
    Congratulations from SoCal!

    Great trade off. As much as we all like 32 Fords that Buick is killer and the kid too.

    That 32 was KOOL! I think you will be very happy with your choice though. Girls love old cars (that run) and especially 'verts. My daughter loves my Demon!

    Haha, I guess this means you're outta the club! No worrys, you can always get back in, they're making new 32s all the time. They're not making any more Buicks. Congrats on your new wheels and Hazel, they're both beautiful!
