As a "car guy" for 60 yrs. this Buick absolutely knocks me out! It's right up there with some of the gorgeous vehicles that came out of European design houses in the 1930s, 40s and 50s. I might be mistaken but I think Buick itself either built or commissioned a concept car named "Blackhawk" that was real eye candy as well. My hat's off to the designers and fabricators of this rolling piece of art.

How did one get in the trunk?
Just the same way they do it today, from inside the car or with the key FOB. You can rest assured that the "inside" of this beauty is "up-to-date".

A real beauty….the top is chopped just enough to bring out the body line.
An excellent job.

Very nice.
I wish I had what it takes (lots of money) to restore an old vehicle like that.

Beautiful machines! I wonder if any of them were ever driven over 60.

Straight 8 under the hood, right?
In it's former life, yes. But, I'll bet you a dollar to a donut that there's a modern, large output V-8 sitting in there now. BTW, I'm a Yankee fan too and I hope they snap to this year. It's been 13 years since we've seen a pennant !!
