  • 1941 Buick Roadmaster Sedan from North Carolina by Earl D

    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”.

  • MY FIRST CAR...By William Petty

    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.

  • Introduction to R&C Database Compilation & Index

    Introduction to R&C Database Compilation & Index

    Introduction to R&C Database Compilation & Index I have a long history and fondness for Rod & Custom magazine. This is the first magazine I purchased at age 10, and I’ve been hooked ever since. I often refer back to my collection, but find it hard to quickly lay my hands on a given article. This is for fellow HAMB members who share a love for this little magazine. This Index covers Rod & Custom Magazine from May 1953 through May 1974. I stopped at 1974 since R&C went out of print then. R&C was restarted in December 1988 and lasted until October 2014. This index is created for general reference, technical reference, research, tracing automobile histories, and genealogy. I have attempted to use a consistent categorization or article grouping scheme across all 20+ years, even though editors or previous compilations may not have used this convention. This index contains the following specific information: Title of each article along with a descriptive supplement such as club affiliation, noted customizers, past owners, professions, etc. The author’s and/or photographer’s name where space allowed. Featured vehicle year, make, model, & engine and/or engine displacement where available or where space allowed. Vehicle owner name, city and state. Where the country is other than the United States, I listed the country Product manufacturer name, city and state. Address may be included if space allowed. The month and page number of each feature article or photograph. The index is sorted by year, and a title at the top of each page indicates which year.
