Big Bad Buick

Rosenberg, TX

Villians Car Club
When I was a kid, we had a Buick just like this. Mom bought it brand new with her savings. All of her savings.
It ran for one year before the transmission failed. My mom couldn't afford to get it fixed, so it sat in the garage for years.
We had to go everywhere in my grandmother's Studebaker until Mom found someone who would trade the Buick for something (an old Dodge) that ran.


other sizes: small medium original auto

That really is a sad tale for your mother and the Buick. My first car was a used 1951 Studebaker. V

Thank you for sharing your life story about your mom's "Big Bad Buick". That really sucked.

Why does this car make me think of Ry Cooder's film "The Buena Vista Social Club"! A great shot and story. V
