Excellent photos. These were masterpieces of craftsmanship. Those leather seats are beautiful. Obviously you wouldn't take this car out in bad weather.


Some of us do exactly that...just like they did in the early 1900s!

This video was taken by my son-in-law as I drove our 1910 Buick to a local show last summer.
The music is from the early 1900s. He added the vignette and sepia effects for fun.

He and my grandchildren were in the back seat.
They were dry when we arrived. Me...not so much.

Nice shots, Tom. That car was class defined in those days.

Hi, Stan.

I wouldn't argue that with you, Stan. That's as fine an auto as I've seen from that era.

Excellent set, Tom. When you said older Buicks, I thought you meant 50s to 70s Buicks, not ancient ones that were way before my time, LOL.


Hi, buddy.

I'd almost bet that had I mentioned the year 1905, a lot of folks would have missed seeing this jewel.

See you.

Thanks for the visit. In all honesty, I stood there and looked at that car in awe. I see a lot, I mean a lot, of first-class restorations. I've never seen one any better.

Whew. Wet. Did you have to dry out the seats, floors, etc? That can't be good for the car.

You have to love that 1910 Buick. I'd sure enjoy having something like that take out and ride around.

I'm talking real old....like 1905

Buick started production in 1904. They produced a car with a two cylinder engine and a single chain drive system. It was identified as Model B. There are no known survivors of a Model B.

For 1905, Buick released the Model C...the car shown here. It was a virtually identical car to the Model B. They produced a total of 750 cars in 1905. Only 14 of those are known to exist. This engine has 159 C.I. with two opposed cylinders. It makes 22 HP.

When new, it sold for $1200. That got you the car, 2 oil side lamps, tail lamp, horn, and tool kit. Best in download

Thanks for commenting, I appreciate it.

This probably looks better than when it left the factory. They didn't have near the quality of paint they have now.
