It is a '58! The lack of trim on the rear fender suggests it is a Special. |

It's a Limited (756) The rear fender trim (or lack of it) suggest it's a Limited, not a Special! All 1958 Buicks but the Limited had a chrome "shovel" on their rear quarters (and rear doors on 4 doors). The Limited had small louvers, a "Limited" script and a badge (which is visible) insted of the chrome shovel but the part between the rear bumper and the rear wheelwell (not visible on this frame) was chrome plated. The front wheelwells and lower rocker panels also had chrome trim on the Limited and Roadmaster 75 but not on the Special/Century/Super (the rocker panel trim is barely visible on the movie frame above) Limited convertible ![]() ![]() Special convertible ![]() -- Last edit: 2010-12-02 20:03:51 (atom) |

The '58s look sad and the '59s look angry! |

The saddest looking car front end I ever saw was the 1954 Buick's, as I recently posted for a photo of one. |
