Here is What I Know about the car:
This Was A Friend of the Families Car! She Worked at Bob Ervin Motors, ( a Buick Dealership) In Olympia Washington as a Bookkeeper. She Purchased it On August, 22nd 1952, to be Picked Up at the Factory in Flint Michigan! She Flew to Flint With Her Plates and Registration and Picked it Up at the Factory! She Even Kept the Letter From Buick on Instructions on How to Pickup Her New Car and the Hotel Durant's Auto Lounge Post Card Where She Stayed!She Drove it Home to Olympia and Took Pictures on the Way (See Black and White Pics)!I Have the Original Purchase Order! (Not Pictured With the Other Paperwork) But Included!She Drove the Car For Years and at 156,000 Miles, Parked it. It Sat For Years. At Some Point She Decided to Restore it! Her Husband and Son's Restored Classic Cars Over The Years, So It Was Time For Her's to Be Next! Her Husband Started to Restore it, But With Her and Her Husband Getting Up In Age, The Restoration Never Really Got Going. With Some Parts Removed to Be Restored,It Just Sat Parked.I Wanted to Restore it, But With a Ton of Other Projects Never Got to it. It has Been in Dry.Storage For Most of the Years I've Had it. I Needed Space to Work on My Merc, So It Had Been Outside for about a Year.It's Under Cover Now!I've Probably Owned this Car for Almost Twenty Years!Speedometer is Missing, But She Told Me the Mileage Was Around 156,000. When They Parked it.

Car Was Ordered Imperial Blue!

Straight 8!

I Got The Engine Running With a 12 Volt Coil and Battery!

Gas Tank is Plugged, So It Runs off a Small Fuel Can and a New Electric Fuel Pump! (Just to Make it Run) !

Dyna Flow Automatic, Moves the Car Forwards and Backwards!

Car is Basically Straight With Some Rust Issues Here and There! (See Pics)

Most of the Rust is in the Floors!

I'm Moving Out of State! Otherwise I Would Keep it and Fix it Up! Clear Original Title!
