racepoint Posted April 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 Andre, how will you approach this Buick? Customize some or work towards original as possible? actually I do not know chris I want to see the car first and then see what I do original is nice but I'm not a fan of the color buick green perhaps as good as the original except for the color, both interior and exterior we will see but I'll be glad when he's in the Netherlands Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MrEarl Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 CONGRATULATIONS Andre!!! The next best thing for me to buying and owning a 54 Buick for myself is finding and helping find one a good home. So glad we, with the help of a good Buick club friend could pull this one off. I gotta say though I have never had such a hard time buying a '54 in my life. Begged the seller to call me and pleaded for more info and better description. Like pulling eye teeth. I was 'bout to give up when Mark stepped up and literally just located the address and paid the seller a visit. And regarding a name. Surely there is something better than MrEal. How about "PaddyWagon" or "Dragon Wagon" or "li'l red wagon" or since '54 was the first year of the all steel wagon "Steel Wagon" or since you got if for a steal "Steal Wagon" Quote Link to post Share on other sites

maybelle Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 Harley. The wagon looks like he should be named Harley. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Avgwarhawk Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I'm going to enjoy seeing what you do with this wagon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MrEarl Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 Harley. The wagon looks like he should be named Harley. I too had thought that. So that is it. Not Mr Earl but rather Harley. Although Ned Nickles had more to do with the 1954 designs than Harley Earl, Harley was still around and I am sure put his stamp of approval on the new all steel wagons. So Harley fits very well.
