The Buick Car Club of Australia Inc. (Qld.) was formed in 1975.

Any person with an interest in the restoration and preservation of Buick motor cars is invited to join.  It is not necessary to own a Buick to be a member.

All years and models are catered for and members cars range from early models to modern Buicks which in some cases are driven daily.

Members of the Buick Car Club enjoy a great social atmosphere with the motor car as the focus.  As a member you will have the opportunity to enjoy the company of fellow Buick owners as the Club has monthly runs and/or regular monthly meetings.

Meetings

To maximise the opportunity for members to attend, meetings are usually held in conjunction with runs around the country areas surrounding Brisbane.  Details of these runs are advised to members in our monthly magazine or through mailed notices and now on this website and you and your guests are cordially invited to attend.  While it is not compulsory to attend any run or meeting, members are encouraged to attend at least one run or meeting  a year (distance permitting) in order to promote fellowship within the Club.

Club Magazine

On joining the club you will receive the monthly club magazine - "The Buick News" by mail.  The January issue is a register of Buick Club members across Australia and their vehicles.  This magazine is published in co-operation with our associates N.S.W. and W.A. clubs and covers their news as well.  The magazine contains articles on restoration, coming events, reports on activities, Interstate news, Meeting Minutes, member contributions etc. as well as For Sale and Wanted Adverts for cars and parts and trade and supplier advertisements.

Advertisements for cars and parts are inserted free of charge to members and your contribution of articles will be appreciated.

Information and Library

One of the great benefits of joining the Club is for the access to information on Buicks.   Collectively members have a wealth of knowledge particularly on restoring cars which they are only too happy to share with other members.  The Club is a great forum for exchanging ideas on vehicle restoration and often club members will assist each other finding those hard to get parts or services.

The Club maintains an extensive library of manuals and technical information for your car which is generally available at a very nominal cost for photocopying of selected pages, or reproduction Workshop Manuals, and other publications are available for sale.

Other Buick Clubs or  registers are in New South Wales, Victoria, Western Australia, U.S.A., Canada, England and New Zealand.

The Queensland club has magazines from some of these clubs in our library.

Club Merchandise

A variety of club merchandise is available for sale such as shirts, caps, car badges and members are encouraged to wear the appropriate Club merchandise on all rallies and runs.
