Gerard,
Ahhhhmm, let's see now, I'll bet if you took out the living room front
windows, you could lift the Buick by crane and stick it in your living
room. It should fit. Big comfy seats for the kids to watch TV from or do
homework on! You wouldn't have to go down to the basement to restore it!

David, (and anyone else who's listening)
If you know anyone that's into Pre-war cars, I know where there is a '41
Buick for sale that is all original. It needs a complete restoration, but
it's all there including the '56 California plates and original radio. It
sat in the original owners garage since 1956 until he died last year.
Anyone who's seen my garage space knows I'm too cramped for that big a
vehicle, or I'd go for it.
