Your PA dealers want to bring your attention to a recent article about the love that many people have for Buick vehicles. This particular story is about a man in South Hutchinson, Kansas, who watched how his dad took care of old Buick cars like they were his baby.
Terry Weigand watched as his dad fixed and restored a beautiful 1916 Buick touring car in 1963. As he watched, he had a moment that clicked. All of a sudden, he became a “car guy.” He enjoyed working on the 1916 Buick with his father. As a result, his father passed it down to him. He still owns the car to this day, but he also owns several other Buicks – one from 1922 and another from 1920.
“I’m a purist. I like them to be original,” Weigand said. His 1920 Buick has fewer than 5,000 miles on it. Before he purchased it, it sat in the basement of the Buick dealer for more than six decades because someone ordered it and died before delivery. Weigand still has all of the original documents on the vehicle as well as the original paint job. Because of his old and original Buicks, General Motors recently invited him and his wife to celebrate the automaker’s 100th anniversary in Flint, Michigan.
See what you can do with some patience and some TLC?
