  • Originally purchased this 1953 Buick Special to take my grandfather for a drive. It was one of his favorites. On this episode, the Buick will run and drive after sitting for over 30 years. Such a great time taking this lead sled out. It is a beautiful patina car with white wall tires.
    Thanks to @freakstudios for the paint work on the hub caps.

    I'm 70 years old and I think your Grandpa is spectacular for being 93 years old.
    My parents had a 1953 Buick Special 4 door, very much like this car. This car looks great.

      We're very lucky to still have him and in such good health! I love the story about your family's Buick as well!

    Gorgeous. My age, exactly...You know, I still don't get the 'patina' thing. I just feel sad when I see a car like this with 'patina'...body looks good...needs a paint-job...even a 'Maaco'!!

      Thank you! Nice paint jobs are expensive! We're going to enjoy it the way it is until we save up the money!

    Being born in 55 I remember those driving around..I always thought the car had Boobs! Chromed one's at that.
