I forgot, I have a convertible! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was talking to someone today that bought a "new to her" convertible, she was super excited about cruising around with the top down this summer. I said "I used to have a convertible" referring to my old 65 Buick, then I remembered ..."Wait, I still have a convertible."
I have only used my '73 Jimmy for plowing for the last 10 years. I forgot how much fun it actually when the top is off.

So, after work, I removed the plow and the top, and gave the old truck a bath.
I still have a convertible!!

What model Buick did you have? I owned a 65 LeSabre convertible 30 years ago. I miss having a convertible some days, maybe I should buy a blazer.

I had a Baby Blue '65 LeSabre Convertible.
I called it "The Blue Whale" Or my "Road Sofa"

Cool. Mine was white with baby blue top and interior. They're land whales for sure, but I could haul a lot of friends around with it.

Ripped off the top, hosed it out and added a few cans of camo paint.
VOILA!
My North Idaho Roadster
