Default Buick

I know that this is a Pontiac site but I know many members own other makes also.With that being said does anyone know of a Buick site ? I fell off the wagon again and bought a 70 GS 455.

I had a 1957 Special Riviera with 26,000 original miles.

There is the Buick Club of America (similar to POCI). They have the Buick Bugle and have a national convention every year. A few years ago they had their event down the road from me.

Never seen so many 1953 and 1954 Skylarks or Grand Nationals in one place before. Good size swap meet too.

There is a major Buick subforum as part of the AACA forums

https://forums.aaca.org/forum/2-buick/

You may have to register on the AACA forum to get there?

Worked for Buick-40 years. Never had one but dad-grandpa and uncle did. When I met my wife 50+ years ago she was driving one.

When my older brother was serving his initial 6 months in the National Guard, I had the use of his '62 Electra 225 hardtop... A/C, power windows and seats. It was a great summer car, especially for the drive-in. Good memories...

Buicks are excellent cars. The '70 GS 455 is faster than most, as well. Well played!

I had a '69 LeSabre convert for a few years in the '90s as my daily driver. It was a great car! I've always had a soft spot for the GS 400s and would prefer one of them over the 4-4-2 or Super Sport, although I wouldn't kick either of those out of my garage either.
