MEET THE MEMBERS Ed and Bonnie Allmond (Assistant Director 2020-2021) By Ed Allmond I have been a car buff ever since I was a little kid. My earliest car memory is of a 1956 Chevy when I Hawaii an Allmondsan Hawaii was three years old and living in Pennsylvania. I built a lot of model cars in my early days, and I liked certain TV shows because of the cars in the programs. After we moved to New York in 1959, whenever we took a trip back to my parents’ hometown of Altoona, PA, I could gauge how far we had left to go by using junk yards and aban- doned old cars along the route as reference points. As a teenager, I couldn’t wait to learn to drive and actually took my driving test us- ing mom’s 1963 Plymouth convertible. That car started a lifelong love affair with top down driving. Prior to my driving test, though, I “learned to drive” on my buddy Gary’s 1951 Plymouth, a 3-speed on-the-column car. Since neither of us were old enough to have a license, we drove it up and down his driveway, which was just long enough to shift into third gear before having to hit the brakes to avoid driving onto the main road. I had to be around 15 or so at that time. I was not a Buick fan initially. My first two cars were Chevys; a 1957 model 150 and a 1958 Biscayne, both 6-cyl, 3-sp manual cars with no radios. The ‘57 got me through high school and a little beyond, while the ‘58 got me into my early twenties. My third car, a 1967 GS400 convertible with 4-sp, set the stage for the future me, though it took a while for it to happen. This was a red car, with a black bucket seat interior and black top, and to this day it’s been my favorite car to own. I think I paid $1300 for it and bought it from a guy who worked at Albany Felt Company. It had some bad body work on the left quarter panel from an accident prior to my ownership. I had it during my college years, and my friends and I would pound the snot out of that car. Remember, back then it was just a car. I finally traded it in during one of our country’s oil embargoes as I made very little My ‘67 (s) all in a row money and couldn’t afford to keep it. That and by this time it needed a lot of work. Sometime later I purchased a 1969 Chevy Camaro SS/RS 396 Indy Pace Car Replica with a 4-speed trans. It was another car that was not in the best of shape but still fun to drive. I sold the Camaro to get married to my first wife, then she and I bought a 1968 Chevelle convertible that went down the road when we split up. That ended the “cool” cars for a while, but that was okay because I met and married Bonnie! We moved into a complex in Clifton Park and one of my neighbors had a 1966 Caddy con- vertible that I had to look at every day. It got to be too much so the search was on for a convertible of my own. After looking at a few “roaches”, I saw an ad for a 1967 Buick Skylark convertible that was in my price range. Remembering how much I loved my GS I went to look at it, and knew I was buying it the moment I saw it! It had everything I wanted; it was green, and the top went down! Bonnie was not very happy that I bought it, but eventually came around to it. As it turns out, she has “come around to it” many more times since then. She is a saint! Utah in 2014 in Utah I bought “Summer 67” in 1988 and it is still with me. Over the years it has faithfully transported me and others through 28 states in pursuit of the Buick Club National and Regional meets. And it led to the purchase of three other 67 Buicks: a Skylark 2- dr hardtop, a Skylark 4-dr sedan parts car, and, as of October 2019, another GS400 convertible, this one an automatic. My other old- ie is a 1975 Cadillac Coupe DeVille, a 15,000-mile one owner car that I bought on a whim due to the price being right. As it turns out, the Caddy is Bonnie’s favorite of my oldies, and we take it whenever we go somewhere together that “requires” an old car. I like working on my cars and, learning everything I can about them. Though I am not the world’s best mechanic, I do most of my own repairs, with a little (okay, a lot!) help from my friends. Route 66 tour in 2019 On a more personal note, Bonnie was raised in Delmar, 2019 Hemmings fav GM award New York and attended Bethlehem High School. She went on to college, graduating from both Schenectady County Community College and SUNY Platts- burg with a degree in English. I was born in Maryland, moved to Pennsylvania shortly after, then moved to New York in 1959 at the age of six. I attended South Colonie Schools and have an Associate’s degree from Hudson Valley Community College in Troy, New York. GS 400 OVERLOOKING THE MOHAWK VALLEY (note: it is difficult to notice the red line stripped tires) Bonnie and I met at the New York State Labor Department and have been married 28 years. I have a daughter, Rebecca, from my first marriage, and one sibling, a sister Kathy. Bonnie has a brother, Tom, who lives outside of Hartford, Connecticut with his wife, Carol. Bonnie and I are cat lovers and currently have two. In 2010, I retired from New York State after 35 ½ years of service, all with the Labor Department. Bonnie is also retired from the Labor Department after a little over 36 years of ser- vice. I joined the Upstate Buick Club during its first year but am not a founding member. I am a past Treasurer, Membership Chair and Webmaster and currently hold the position of Assistant Director. Although Bonnie is not a fan of road trips, she loves to travel, and as a result, we have been to Europe, Scotland, Hawaii and many of the Caribbean Islands. Between those trips and my long-distance road trips with my Buick car buddies, I am truly a lucky guy! Cruisemaster Ed I JUST LOVE THIS PHOTOGRAPH ! You are invited to add to this new feature. Find a nice spot and get a great pho- to of your car(s) or, pick an older picture you really like, and then send it to me with a short description of what makes it important using: [email protected] and we will feature as many of them as possible in up coming editions of the Upstate Update. This one is from Diane Proulx! A great place for a breakfast run in Glens Falls from a few years ago. WHEN THE STARS ALIGN Having sold my 1953 Buick Special 2 door recently, I was on the lookout for another Buick as I enjoy the club, its great format, magazine, and membership. Additionally, Dad, who had many beautiful cars in the past but has not had a collectible one in many years, was looking to get back into the hobby. So, along with numerous car-shows and auctions, my Dad and I went to this year’s Spring and Fall Carlisle, just as we have for decades.

  • 1.02 1953 Through 1958
    General Information on Makes & Models 1.02 1953 Through 1958 The "Nailhead" V8 is Introduced In 1953, Buick joined the V8 army with the introduction of their new V8. The engine was rather unique in that it used a radical combustion chamber borrowed from four-valve overhead cam (OHC) racing engines, but with only one side of the pent roof chamber containing valves – and those were activated by pushrods rather than overhead cams. (See discussion in the Engine Section) The chamber did allow higher combustion ratios than were feasible with other engines, and as a result the Buick mill made good horsepower when introduced, with the 322 cubic inch motor making 180 HP in the 1953 Roadmaster. With the new V8, whatever excitement had been missing was back in 1953. For the first time ever, all Buicks shared a common 1953 Buick Nailhead intro brochure wheelbase. Also to celebrate Buick's 50th anniversary, the Division released an "Anniversary Convertible", known as the "Skylark", available for a cool $5,000, which would be about $150,000 in today's money. As such, only 1,690 were sold. But because of their cost and cache, today many still survive and are in great demand by collectors. Refinement and Power Drive Huge Sales Increases Buick chassis engineering, which could have only been described as "ponderous", began to catch up with the new V-8 in 1954. The new cars were lower and wider, with greatly improved handling. And for the first time, even the Special had V-8 power. The Anniversary Convertible returned as just the Skylark, though it sold in even lesser numbers Regardless, '54 was a smashing sales success.
