His last new car was a 1980 Chevy Citation and I can not call that rich!!! :)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Make-and-Year-of-this-car-23306873 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 15:33:17 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Make-and-Year-of-this-car-23306833 said by zach3:

Anyway it was the last new car that he had until 1960 when he bought a Chrysler Valiant. He bought a new car every 2 years after that until his death in 1980.
2 years? wow he was rich.

Army Air Corps! I must have been tired! :)

Yes all of the Auto production lines were converted into making Tanks, Jeeps, Airplanes and what ever else that the military needed.

I still find it hard to imagine just how much production this country must have turned out during the war years! Absolutely amazing.

I had no idea that he stored the thing while he was serving in the Army Air Core during the war but he must have. Army Air Corps! :)

That would not be surprising, during WWII car production was halted and gas was rationed. So even those that didn't serve, couldn't get new cars and couldn't drive those they had much. After the war, when production restarted, the new designs where notably different. Which is why, at first look, I was sure it had to be a pre-WWII design.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Make-and-Year-of-this-car-23282117 Mon, 02 Nov 2009 22:58:10 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Make-and-Year-of-this-car-23278203
I believe that this is a 41 Buick and possibly the first new car that my Father used to talk about that he purchased just before WWII. I had no idea that he stored the thing while he was serving in the Army Air Core during the war but he must have.

Anyway it was the last new car that he had until 1960 when he bought a Chrysler Valiant. He bought a new car every 2 years after that until his death in 1980.

Thanks for helping with the memories!!

Good luck. I was lucky, I know every car my father ever owned. And found a list a grandfather made of ever car he owned, I only remember the last three, the first was '22 Gray.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Make-and-Year-of-this-car-23276453 Sun, 01 Nov 2009 22:23:05 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Make-and-Year-of-this-car-23273858
After looking at the picture a little better I believe that I am about 2.5 years old so that would make the picture date about Summer or Fall of 1947.

So it is possible that it is a 41 Buick.

I posted the image on Photo Bucket and asked the same question on the Hemmings Motor News forum.

I will post back when I find the answer!!
