And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Ah, the Buick Electra. My dad had a hardtop, in white. Love those slab sides. Great car.
Yeah it that model and it's Olds equivalent had water pump issues.my late father owned both an Electra and an Olds 88, and the water pumps failed on both.
Drove a '59 Buick Electra for a while. Traction was amazing, and it would not get stuck in snow, ice, and mud. Could lay down on the seat between the armrests on the doors without touching them. Made for a great fishing trip camp car.
