If I had that car, I would want a woman with the class and looks of Myrna Loy or Carole Lombard to be sitting next to me.

$2,000 in 1932 would have got you 100 ounces of gold.

The current Buick Convertible, the Cascada, is $33,065. It's not nearly as luxurious and elegant as the 1932:

To me, it's butt-ugly and stupid looking.

That's the best dressed and most well-mannered collection of Colored's that I've seen in a month of Sunday's.

The whole brand has kind of 'lost it's way', the TourX station-wagon and their SUV's are all they've got to offer, IMO. Even those fall short of the former glory of the Buick brand.

Well,you know what they say about taste.....

Of course "they" lie a lot.

Well,that was back when black people had self-respect and pride,and before their white communist masters taught them they are victims that can't compete.

That was before LBJ's 'Great Society' programs PAID black women to have children out of wedlock. I hope Pres. Trump addresses this later on and forces CONgress to confront their own worst sins that they continue to enable through entitlement programs.

I still likes De-troit iron and that's a bad ass automobile.

In a pinch I could fix just about anything that ails it out of a tool box.

Roughly, $130,000 to-day (They used to hyphen that in the olde days).

Working!

Apparently you were born out of your time, as I was.

I should have been working alongside Henry Ford, rather than the "JUST MAKE IT HAPPEN !" retards that I have to deal with today.

FWIW, I learned today, via ZH, that I most likely won't be eligible for SS until I'm 74. So close! Winning!

Great choices as far as looks go and screen persona, but I guess Myrna was some radical left-nut with ties to the UN or some such nonsense.

FWIW, Carole Lombard was from Ft. Wayne. We used to Have a memorial bridge for her, but I think they renamed it the MLK Jr. memorial bridge.

Great to see you, my friend.

Loddy, it's always great to see your posts. I check in when ever I can. I don't post much because I'm damned tired of hearing bad news.

I sure miss Arete & the guys and the Market Wrap-Up threads (even Cyni who used to pick on us).

I loved everyone here on 4um, including Turtle (Bob Wallace), who I loved sparing with, but not very often agreed with him with. I was surprised Bob was a ginger boy, I always imagined him a a black haired mafioso (with pugs). All in all, he was a nice man.

Hey, Darkhorse, lighten up a little bit. You're dealing with some of the most astute folks on this planet.

We've lost lots of participants over the years; I miss them.

Stay safe, warm, and well, and don't be a stranger here.
