52 Buick Special 2dr hardtop

Well Got my Pontiac out of storage today, and while cruising around a few blocks from my house I found this 52 Buick Special Hardtop, the cousin to my Pontiac... Now just need to see if its for sale.

 

what part of Colorado?
fingers crossed for ya.-chuck

 

Colorado Springs..

 

same color too, what are the odds of that? hope you get it.

 

I used to goto Horace Mann Junior High school a 100 years ago. On my walk/ride each day was a red one. Oh and an 59 imperial. Each day I would think about those cars...Hell even at 42 I still do. I remember putting notes on them asking if they were for sale...thank gawd they werernt...parents woulda been pissed...

Let us know how it comes out....btw I hit the springs every summer...love that place...great pontiac too!

 

Springs is good but has grown out of control. Still a lot of old cars laying around though..

 

The Buick you found is a 1951 and not a 1952.
I have exactly the same, a 51 Special 2 door coupe, model 45 R (Riviera)

Actually a 51 had side trim that went down the side of rear quarter, this one appear to be 52 but who knows?

 

it is a 1952 Buick special I have one look at my pro file, I choped it to I have more picks to cum

 

wow! Nice find! Did you end up buying it? Looks very complete.

 

Its a 52 like mine.

 

Yes, got car for $1000 original owner. Last driven in 74. Rebuilt carb runs great. Needs brakes etc. Painted the wheels and mounting new tires

 

Nice find, loving them both.

 

New shoes on her today

 

What model pontiac is that? Really like how it looks!

 

A sweet car and you bought it right. What are your plans?

Plan to make a cousin twin of my Pontiac. Straight 8 runs good. 3speed shifts well.

 

That's my 1953 Catalina hardtop .

 

Love how it sits, I'm going to have to keep an eye out for one of those to take the place of my daily driver.

 

Great find on the Buick! Your catalina is still on of my favorite of that year.
