Thomas E Westfall - Deceased 1970 - 2017
July 7, 1970 ~ June 10, 2017
Back around 2003ish I had a 1972 superior combination limo style and a 56 meteor landau. We were in a real tough financial time and the need to sell them came. It was either that or the repossession guy was going to make things much worse. The 72 was my favorite. It was kind of dependable, but he had his days. The 56 was stripped down and was going to be turned into some sign thing when I saver her from that fait. A lady came up from the Moundsville West Virginia area and wanted her to restore, but I never did find out if they did so. The car was solid and well worth it. The 72 was bought by a man just south of Columbus Ohio. I guess he was a drag racer because he talked of his race car a few times. The 72 was in really good shape and I was progressing on the body work well. The front clip was primer gray and so was the steel roof. The previous owner had “the last ride” put in the rear door window so I left it. I really regret selling the 72 and would love to find him again. I’ve had many cars, buy that one I still love. My son was small and loved to ride in the rear jump seats. The 84 Buick S&S was a complete mess mechanically and body wise. Folks from Ocean City Maryland area bought her to build her into a hot rod, which I thought was a good thing due to the shot body and transmission. The fiberglass roof was separating from the bodt too.
