Only for oldtimer and US-car meetings or just cruising when the weather is nice. Mostly when I`m hot of V8 sound.

Wow...unrestored, with original 322 "Nailhead" V8 and Dynaflow AutoTrans? It's even got that rare gas tank door trim (2.10). I wish my '56 Special 4 door was as nice. My cousin east of Berlin wanted me to trade it for his '58 Opel Rekord... I told him my Buick won't leave Kansas! Thanks for posting the vid!

I didn`t know that this gas tank door trim is so rare. I have one of this trim as a spare in my "stock".

Ach! So that's where the video was taken. Awesome! How the hell were you able to get such a nice American car into Germany? I can imagine it'd cost you lots of money to register the car! I love how the car keeps up with Autobahn traffic without problem.

[mattnattig]

To register the car is not realy expensive roughly 300 dollar for tax and 160 for insurance. Sorry for the late answer.

Man i'm going to come in germany just to hear the sound of the V8 and to see that beauty! Be ready i'm coming from italy!

A rare site in Germany I would imagine. Beautiful old car though. Not quite up to european handling standards even of the 50's I imagine but that was not really the point. That V8 engine sounds nice though and is running like a top. The record player is certainly a novelty. The fact that it can play without skipping is a feat in itself.

My favorite cars were the '55 and '56 Buicks. My father sold Buicks from '49 until the end of '57 when he became ill with lung cancer--he passed away March 17, 1958 when he was only 59. One of his favorite cars to drive was a blue and white '55 Roadmaster sedan with factory AC. The last car he drove was a '56 Special sedan with Novi AC out of the back. I'm attaching a video of my '56 Cadillac driving through Cameron Park in Waco, TX.

No problem. Nice car. Do you drive it everyday or just some times?
