Wallpapers - 1937 Buick Shafer 8 of Coker Tire Company



Hello again and please allow me to bring to you some Wallpapers - 1937 Buick Shafer 8 of Coker Tire Company....

Yeah, it's retro of course. Something that our elderly person liked very much during those days....

Here are some brief story about this car :

Phil Shafer built Indy cars from 1931 until about 1939 (about the time the cars went completely to single seat). This car is equipped with Rigling and Henning (of Indianapolis) special built chassis powered by a 284 cid Straight 8 Buick engine from a Buick series 60. Shafer had so much confidence in his Shafer 8 that he shipped one of his cars to Europe to drive in the German Gran Prix and finished 13th in 1931.

And here are some overview of the said car...enjoy it!

Do not try this while filling gas into your car.......

Thank you to Mr Roger from Austria who sent email to me about this video footage. Well this is something worth sharing with all of you here... :)

Better avoid doing such action - using your hand phone during gas filling or even if you got nothing to do with that, don't do it if you're near any highly flammable substances....






Thanks again, Roger... I'll appreciate it a lot...bye!
