thanks for the show dave, that wagon, the Buick is the one i like out of the yank tanks. the blue Buick 8/40 looks familiar .. there's one (38?) here in this region with original paint upholstery etc in the same blue , so they got that right (or its the same car) i had a 1940 model that came from woodside army barracks in the Adelaide hills for a brief time in the 1980's. turn on the key , push the accelerator and a switch attached to the pedal activates the starter motor vrooom .. the straight eight erupts and the torque reaction makes it sway side to side on its springs. thirsty and not a particularly fast old thing though .  given a choice i'd take a WRC car and blitz the club gymkhanas .
