    Was a nice hot and humid day in a recent cut hay field. Along about 11:00 AM it got real cloudy and a bit windy. Wife checked her smart phone weather app and said no rain in the area. Yet I would guess half the cars and trucks were gone by noon.
    I had already made the rounds and taken the pictures of the stuff I wanted to.

    We were not the only Buick there. This other one was a GN maybe. Didn't sound like one and the hood was never raised.
    I need to learn how to look at the vin number to be sure.

    I love some of the storys we are told about the LaSabre Limited Collectors edition. I wonder if people do not relize we do know the Model.

    It came with 3 engine options, the 3.8 Liter V6, 5.0liter V8 307 cid Olds engine, and Olds 350 Diesel engine.

    Yet a man told us he had a 4 door model Collectors edition from the factory with a 35o Cid Buick Engine, used it to tow a travel trailer that the roof raised and lowered on.


    We have learned to smile and say the things so they don't go away mad.

    I just know if I see a Pontiac GTO I can tell it is a real GTO and not a LeMans up grade by the serial number. All GTO's have 641 in the Vin number.

    Lots of tractor companys merged in ther late 1970's and early 1980's.
    Case and International formed when International bought case.

    White was a combonation of Moine and Oliver and Cockshutt.

    I didn't win a trophy. Our Buick won. All the shows we have went to we have yet to see another LESabre Limited Collectors edition Coupe.
