<font color="blue"> </font> Hi, I currently own a 58 Buick Limited Coupe ( have also owned three other 58 Buicks- 4dr Century, 4dr Limited & a Limited Convertable ) & also own a 58 Lincoln Continental Convertable. Have just built a garage in parent's yard so that me & the ol' man can start to build me a 32 Roadster. Looking thru the UK for parts & V5's. Boy, I love laying rubber in that big ol' Lincoln!!!
Very nice cars there. Welcome! I don't know how you guys maintain American cars, much less modified 'em. My hats off to ya. Joel
Cool iron...but man, you shoulda put some spaces in your name...it reads like a Drunken Raspberry! Nice rides, though!
Wow, you got more real metal in those cars than half the British automobile production for all of last year!!! Welcome!!!!
'58 Buick....you wouldn't catch me in one of them old things, especially a Limited!! & ya wouldn't catch me abusing my car like that either young man!
[ QUOTE ] MrB, just how much do barbers get paid in the UK? [/ QUOTE ] I was wondering the same thing! Maybe I should move and trade the brushes for scissors.Really nice lookin' rides....welcome to the HAMB!
Well thankyou so much people for makin me feel so welcome to the board. I thought this would be rods only & my cars would be laughed off the site!! How much do Barber's earn in the UK you ask? well up until I gained a brain 2 years ago, I used to start work at 4.15 AM on Saturday & 6-6.30 AM in the week!! Thats how I afford such toys!! Speaking of toys, as my friend Dave ( A32flathead ) asked so nicely here's a pic of my Lincoln & hey 32Limey I'll try & post one of me smokin her tyres just for you! Oh & crease I am about 40 miles away from Goodwood but if you need help with accom close by I'll try hunt some down for ya.
REALLY NICE RIDE!! I work until about 4:15 a.m...maybe I should switch that around a bit. Don't worry...there's plenty of people here that dig sleds!
Man and I was gonna quit my job and become a plumber cuz they make a mint but after seeing a barber's cars, I'm gonna start doin' flattops and crewcuts for all you HAMBers. Those are sweet rides man. What's up, or should I say down with that Lincoln? That is a wicked ride. What kinda suspension you got on there? Oh, and welcome to the HAMB. Big Daddy Eric
Thanks for that Bud, I had a hell of a time gettin her there ( Carb rebuild two days before, air bag blow out on leavin home - that should answer your question also BigDdy31: air bags all round & handles GREAT if a little bouncy in a straight line - valve stem seal lettin oil down & blowin out rear ) so once I got there I was sure in hell gonna have a ball in that car incase it didn't get me home! Glad most people seemed to approve of me draggin it's ass around at speed....to hell with those who didn't! lol Thanks for the warm welcome all.
Welcome! Really cool cars.. I love Buicks too. Now, I'm moving to England and going to Barber school.. Hey are you some sort of old English money.. you're not a Walker or something are you? TinyE
Nice cars you got there you lucky bastid. There used to be a pink '59 Buick convertible behind my grammar school in Burnley. I used to drool over that thing as a teenager. Do you know Floyd The Barber? Good guy but a bit of a simpleton.
