Over Christmas we stayed in Wagga to visit some relos. We stayed at Dunn's B&B, and they've got a restored '29 Buick which they use to drive their guests around. Gorgeous old car, comfy as to sit in. Amazingly the main body is still original paint! It was a rare model used for officials or an embassy or something, so it's lived a very pampered life.
We got a ride down the main street in it. Drove really nice and appeared easy to drive, though the timber frame was squeaking the whole time
More info on Dunn's - well reccomended if you're staying in Wagga

Re: 1929 Buick (at a B&B)
There seems to be quite a concentration of these really early cars in the Wagga Wagga area. I have been to a rally for the past few years held over the Queens Birthday long weekend, the town is full of them that weekend!

I like your Buick better, Timbo...more "of the common man" than that pampered wagon.

I tend to agree with Tim, nothing special about it, looks like a model 47/116 5 passenger 4 door sedan with a Holden body.SunnyTim wrote:looks really nice but doubt itsm1929 paintwork. she's had a full resto at some stage
Same as the 1929 Chev.
