StevenGuthmiller Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 We've seen everyone's '59 Mopars & full sized Oldsmobiles, now I'd like to see what everyone has for Full sized Buicks! Another group of cars that are way under represented in the kit world today. What have you got guys? I'll start the show with my '58 Roadmaster & a '59 & '60 Invicta.

Ron Hamilton Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 This '69 was a true cold blooded wreck when I got it, but after a lot of work... I have to bring these back to life... One of these '65's may get turned into a convertible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of these '65's may get turned into a convertible. The '60 is a piece of art Ron! I always hated the looks of the '60 Buick, but after building one, I really gained an appreciation for them.

Ramfins59 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Steven, thanks a lot. Yeah I love playing along with these "Show me" threads...... as long as I've got something to show. Frank, no it must be the lighting... and the yellow color on the '58... that is regular chrome BMF...... and a LOT of it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed a long time ago that the '59s were more available & usually less expensive than the '58 or '60. Guess it's because it was re-released a couple of times.
