A real beauty!
It sure is that. I appreciate you looking in and commenting Mike. They just don't make cars, priced like this with this kind of detail anymore. This car was priced about 3-4 times what a Model A costs. That's about $70-80K these days.

I always marvel at the craftsmanship of these cars.
You're right about the craftsmanship. A lot of these manufacturers used custom coachworks to produce the bodies and details on these cars. I don't know any cars manufacturers today that use custom coachworks for production cars.

Great set of a beautiful car, Reuss.
Nice to hear from you again, Earnest. Glad you liked the set. It's always fun to share car show images with other UHHers.

A beautiful old classic Reuss. I think I might have one I took at Crusin' the Coast in Mississippi a few years back. Will check.

It’s a beauty and a great set Reuss. 
Glad you liked it, Sylvia. They just don't make them like that anymore. They had about a dozen of these grand touring cars in front of the manor house which was a photographic nirvana. The manor house, 70 rooms, is also surrounded by gardens. There's a rose garden, Italian water garden, English walled garden and a Japanese garden. I go there often just to photograph the flowers.

Wow, four thumbs up. Glad you liked it. I might just post some more of these classics. They also had grand touring cars from the 3 Ps, Peerless, Pierce Arrow and Packard, all as impressive as the Buick.
