1953 Buick Down On The Bahraini Street

1953 Buick Down On The Bahraini StreetThis is Down On The Street Bonus Edition, where we check out interesting street-parked cars located in places other than the Island That Rust Forgot. Yes, there's an early-50s Buick roaming Bahrain!

This Buick, with bonus T-Bird, comes to us courtesy of Clark:

I am a longtime reader of the site. I always enjoy DOT series, and I think I might have something to contribute. I was visiting a friend of mine in Bahrain (I live here too) when I saw his neighbor had some nice cars outside. I shot these using my camera phone, so sorry for the green tint to the images.

Near as I can tell, its a 50-53 Buick Super 8 and a 64-66 Ford T-Bird. Thought you guys might like to see some DOTS cars that are halfway around the world from where they were made! One of these days if I see the owner I will ask about the story behind the cars.
