1941 Buick Roadmaster Sedan from North Carolina by Earl D
The Story of our 1941 Buick Roadmaster sedan from North Carolina By Earl D. Beauchamp, Jr. If I had to go back to the very beginning, it would be 1952 when I was 14 years old. That is when I first became virally interested in old cars. Now old cars, to me, were the years I remembered during my short lifetime, which was the 1930s and 1940s. Most of the books and magazines of the time, specifically MOTOR TREND, dealt with cars specified as “Classic Cars”, as defined by the fledgling Classic Car Club of America (CCCA). I religiously read Robert Gottlieb’s monthly column called “Classic Comments”. Around 1953 Mr. Gottlieb wrote and published a book called “Classic Cars”. I believe it was in that book where he made the statement that “no Buick was ever a “Classic Car” or something to that effect. Well, my family was a Buick family, or had been until hard times caused my parents to trade their 1939 Buick in on a 1951 Plymouth (in 1958 they went back to Buick for the rest of their lives). That statement by Mr. Gottlieb stuck in my young craw, and I never got over it. In 1955 I was allowed to get my first car, and it was a 1939 Buick Special sedan optionalized with dual sidemount fenders and a full pleated leather interior. It had belonged to a family friend. Now, I was convinced this car had to be a “Full Classic” and I wrote to Mr. Gottlieb and asked him. Then, in 1956 he wrote a second book called “Classics and Special Interest Cars.” Although he never answered my letter; in that book he mentioned a car like mine and said it was not a “Classic” but would be considered a “Special Interest Car”.

Buick engineers developed the “valve-in-head” engine, a light, powerful and reliable engine which would eventually influence the entire automotive industry. William C. Durant was instrumental in promoting Buicks across the country using his Durant-Dort Carriage Co. outlets and salespeople as the nucleus of a giant distribution system. He knew the Buick as a “self-seller”. If automobiles could be this good, he thought, maybe it was time to switch from the horse and buggy business to automobiles.

MY FIRST CAR...By William Petty
MY FIRST CAR....By William Petty I got my first car in July 1968.I was working at a local engineering firm the summer after my freshman year at NC State and I was driving my parents 1966 Buick Riviera to work every day. My dad had a city car he drove but my mom was stuck with no car so I think they finally decided it was time for me to get one for myself. (I had been campaigning for one since I got my driver's license almost four years before). My dad and I went down to Holt Buick on Pacific Avenue at the Beach, (he and Herb Holt were old friends), and went in the office and he told Mr. Holt that we wanted to order a new Buick Special Deluxe coupe "with nothing on it but paint". That was the cheapest Buick at the time. Mr. Holt turned to me and asked me, "you want something on it don't you?" I did manage to get full wheel covers, a tinted windshield and chrome trim around the windows. We ordered it in blue with a white vinyl interior and it cost $2800. It had rubber floor covering, a straight six with manual three speed on the column, manual brakes, and manual steering. I drove it to college for four more years and commuted to 21st St. in Norfolk, when I started working at Williams & Tazewell Architects. I traded it, in late December of 1972, for a new Olds Cutlass. Our office was one block down from Charlie Falk Used Cars and the parking lot entrance was on 22nd St.
