I don't know if this would have been considered a "full size" Buick back in the day, but this 1911 Buick 14B is the only model Buick I've ever built...

That's just downright beautiful Harry!

Yes, I would say that it would classify as "full sized".

They didn't make compacts back then, did they? :D

These are really sweet. Love the full sized Buics. Btw are the 61 Invicta considered full size?

Have many projects but none are very much to look at as they are now.

I avoided this thread until now .. guess I had '70-80's in my head. But, everything shown so far has been beautiful!! :D

Was there anything from the 70s & 80s that looked good? :D

Absolutely the '61 Invicta would be full sized.

Built on the same platform as the Bonneville & Impala.

Well, I build models for fun, and for me having fun is building what you really love. In my case, what I really love since I was a small kid in short pants are Ford cars, so, I build them way more than any other thing, after all, modeling is a work of love.

Even having said that, once in a while I do build something non Ford, and those are mostly Chevrolet cars.

I just built one Buick, a '62 Electra deuce and a quarter.

What are you afraid of Tulio? It looks fantastic!

All of the custom work in the world can't improve on the class that these old cars had straight from the factory floor in my opinion.

Great work!!
